LeAnn Rimes is not addicted to pills and supplements that combat the aging process, despite a new tabloid report. Gossip Cop can exclusively correct this fabricated story. We’re told it’s simply not true.
According to Star, Rimes’ friends are worried she’s headed down a dangerous path due to her alleged addiction to popping herbal supplements. A so-called “insider” tells the tabloid, “LeAnn is obsessed with taking pills. She takes one for everything – skin, nails, hair, eyelashes, allergies, weight loss, brain function, energy, vision and more.” The supposed source alleges Rimes’ friends find her behavior “alarming.”
And while it’s true that Rimes does take a number of supplements every day, her pals are not concerned that it’s turned into an “addiction,” as the tabloid claimed.
Gossip Cop checked in a source close to Rimes, who assures us that the singer is in no way addicted to vitamins or supplements. We’re told the magazine’s claim is “false.”
Of course, Star is the same outlet that we have repeatedly corrected for wrongly reporting Rimes was pregnant, which time has proven not to be the case. It seems since the pregnancy stories haven’t stuck, the tabloid apparently decided to go with a tale of “addiction.” We wish the magazine were addicted to fact-checking.
