Undoubtedly, LeAnn Rimes Cibrian‘s decision to clear her name has come at a huge cost since she was dragged into the pregnancy rumors through the social media gossip regarding the development of her character’s look on ‘9-1-1: Nashville’ and the so-called ‘magic’ of a New Victoria’s Secret push-up bra. The singer, who is also an actress, shared on social media a very amusing behind-the-scenes from the ‘9-1-1: Nashville’ setting and thus made the rumors go away with humor and openness.

LeAnn Rimes Cibrian is removing the uncertainties and doing it in a humorous way. Just recently, a clip from her hit show directly addresses the conversations surrounding the changing look of the actress’s character Benning. Displaying her cute side, she is holding up a heavily padded red bra and says, “Welcome to the latest installment of Dix Tits.”
She is not just talking, but she is actually showing it. She takes off the layers of the famous underwear and shows the staggering amount of padding used. “This is the reason why people think that I have been doing breast augmentation,” she says while laughing. “I mean, this thing is so packed with padding.” The video also serves as a teaching moment for the audience to understand the tricks of the trade that are applicable in television and how the art of costume design silhouettes a character. Not only that, but Rimes Cibrian also hints to the audience about the right manner of dressing to uplift their bust size when she advises, “And ladies, you want your boobs up to your chin, I highly recommend a little Vickie Secret… I assure you this adds two sizes to your boobs.”
The honesty was followed by a fanfare of support and mirth from her followers. A user articulated the general sentiment perfectly with these words: “You always make me laugh! It is fantastic if the only issue people have with Dixie is her bust size!” The comment highlights the actress’s comic temperament has skilfully turned the narrative from one of reproach to that of a shared laugh about the trade secrets of the entertainment world.
Another user praised Rimes Cibrian’s wholesome character by writing, “You are just so amazing, so humble, and so damn real I can’t help but to adore you MY ICON.” Such a response is indicative—it shows how much her honesty and ability to laugh at her own expense strike a chord, hence, her audience is much more connected to her than any polished post could ever achieve.
The conversation soon switched from the actress’s character to her acting skills in the show, which got praise. One of the comments said, “The show is really good, fantastic cast, BUT you are my favorite! Dixie is lit. Honestly, I’ve followed your music for years, but your acting is soooo on point!” This suggests that her transition from one career, music, to another, acting, was very successful, for it is less and less loud at the new TV role where she is acknowledged than it was in the past when she had to fight for one. I mean, it is a bit messy in her principle of being an all-round performer. She also recently announced a new Christmas album.
Thus, amid all the laughter, a fan pointed out a strange but funny scenario and posed the question, “Have Dixie and Blythe ever talked about their wikifeet ratings? Rumor has it their scores are pretty close, but the very start of this video might just give Dixie the upper hand.” The bizarre yet hilarious remark illustrates the strange and interesting sides of fan culture and how even the most ordinary behind-the-scenes clips can spark the most inventive—and totally random—discussions among a loyal cohort of fans who are dedicated to the show and its stars.

By using humor and some proof at the same time, LeAnn Rimes Cibrian managed to take control of the conversation. Instead of letting the rumors spread, she gave a very simple, funny, and super relatable explanation. It has come to light that the source of character’s striking look is not a plastic surgeon’s office but rather the costume department thus sometimes the simplest explanation is indeed the right one. She also announced a special Christmas vinyl featuring a Joni Mitchell cover. Her peaceful Christmas cover appears on a new greatest hits album, and she shared her festive weekend plans involving signed Christmas records. The whole incident is a classic case of how to handle public inquiries with class and a large dose of humor.
