At first, I thought this report from the Enquirer was just going to be full of quotes from random unnamed sources claiming to be friends with LeAnn Rimes. I was in for a rude, yet not unpleasant awakening. The Enquirer has an exclusive interview with Eddie Cibrian’s ex-wife (and mother of his two sons) Brandi Glanville, and she’s still got a mouth on her. It’s wonderful. A month ago, Brandi was giving interviews all over the place, telling everybody who’d listen that Eddie was a compulsive liar, an absentee father, a cheater and a homewrecker, and that Eddie and LeAnn “deserve each other”. After the initial flurry of interviews, Brandi got quiet and seemed to be playing a different game. I thought she was really going to give this whole “amicable divorce” thing a go, but it looks like that was just a pipe dream. Brandi has a message for LeAnn: Eddie just wants your money, moron.
LeAnn Rimes’ lover Eddie Cibrian is after her money – that’s the warning from LeAnn’s close friends AND Eddie’s estranged wife!
But LeAnn, who’s worth an estimated $35 million, doesn’t seem to care, say insiders.
“Now that the excitement of the cheating is over, what else could there be? It’s the bank account,” Eddie’s soon-to-be ex Brandi Glanville told the Enquirer in an exclusive interview. “I know she’s spending money on expensive gifts like jewelry and vacations on him.”
Brandi says one of the places LeAnn has been spoiling Eddie is at the altra-expensive chic jewelry store Chrome Hearts.
“He might be pretty on the outside, but he’s toxic on the inside,” Brandi added. “He’s a shallow, shallow man.”
When pals have warned LeAnn that Eddie sees her as little more than a fat wallet, the singer has responded: “I’m a big girl, I know what I’m doing,” according to a source.
But even Eddie’s pals have said the actor has dollar signs in his eyes. When one complimented Eddie on the matching his-and-hers mountain bikes LeAnn had purchased, Eddie laughed and said: “Yeah, I’m working my way up to a Ferrari!” revealed one of his friends.

Hot damn, right? I love this kind of juicy interview. I’m now revising my opinion of Brandi once again – a few days ago I thought she was angling to piss off LeAnn by being more conciliatory to Eddie, but now I think Brandi is still out for blood. As for what Brandi’s actually saying – well, I’ll buy that Eddie is a “shallow, shallow man” and that he’s mostly interested in being with a LeAnn because she can support him financially. Especially after Brandi takes his dumb ass to the cleaners. However, I don’t think Brandi should be offering this kind of “advice” to LeAnn – Brandi should stick with her earlier “they deserve each other” instincts.
