"Let&amp;#x27;s be honest--LeAnn Rimes didn&amp;#x27;t have the best 2012. Her words, not mine: &amp;quot;It has been a tricky year,&amp;quot; she told Jay Leno on The Tonight Show last night. And I immediately turned up the television--because I hadn&amp;#x27;t figured LeAnn would talk about anything but her music. After last week&amp;#x27;s sobby sitdown, I thought she was probably done addressing the affair with Brandi Glanville&amp;#x27;s ex, LeAnn&amp;#x27;s now-husband Eddie Cibrian (it&amp;#x27;s become a major juice-source on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills)--and that Jay would be kept on a short leash regarding the issue. Instead, LeAnn discussed the matter with plaintive, dry-eyed poise--and while I have no love for cheaters, obviously, you can&amp;#x27;t deny that it takes some guts to sit on national television saying things like &amp;quot;In that moment, I was pathetic.&amp;quot; Watch: Huh. Unexpected, right? I&amp;#x27;m not saying she&amp;#x27;s the next Amanda Seyfried or anything, but I am giving her points for candor and real pulling-on of the big-girl-pants. Does this change your opinion of LeAnn at all? Photo: NBC"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
