LeAnn Rimes’ current financial crisis is perhaps why she is charging fans outrageous prices for her personal meet-and-greets. In fact, there’s speculation that LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian are so desperate for cash that the former country singer is willing to do anything to make money these days, even if that means disrespecting her fans.
Even though LeAnn Rimes enjoyed success during the mid-1990s and early 2000s, her career lost steam mostly because of her Eddie Cibrian affair and Dean Sheremet divorce. Fans have had a hard time forgiving LeAnn Rimes for cheating on her husband and for being the reason why Eddie Cibrian and Brandi Glanville divorced. Surely, it didn’t help LeAnn Rimes when she engaged in several very public Brandi Glanville fights and Twitter spats. Because of her personal life, LeAnn Rimes was no longer seen as a country music artist but instead as a woman who cheated on her husband and broke up another family for her own personal gain.
Even though LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian have managed to move on, there’s heavy speculation that the couple is dealing with some major financial issues at home. LeAnn Rimes is no longer playing in packed stadiums across the country and Eddie Cibrian hasn’t had a steady acting job in Hollywood for years now. Yet, LeAnn Rimes is disrespecting her fans by charging them $250 for personal meets-and-greets. Clearly, LeAnn Rimes is no Britney Spears, Selena Gomez, or Taylor Swift for that matter. That’s why her fans can’t help but wonder why she thinks she can charge her fans an outrageous price for a photo op and thirty-second meeting with her.
Of course, none of that seems to be LeAnn Rimes’ concern, as her main focus is being the breadwinner of her marriage and paying her bills. LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian are no longer going on lavish vacations and spending money on luxury items like sports cars and designer clothes like they used to several years ago. In fact, LeAnn Rimes has only been seen traveling in and out of airports from one tour stop to the next, hoping that her career can get the boost she desperately needs.
But will fans continue to pay outrageous prices for LeAnn Rimes concert tickets and meet-and-greets? Time will only tell. What do you think, CDL readers? Is LeAnn Rimes disrespecting her fans by charging big bucks for them to see her? Let us know what you think.
