Falling From Grace

Though celebrities with tarnished reputations are no rarity here in the U.S., the heights from which they can fall are often astounding. According to a CNN.com article, actress-singer LeAnn Rimes, once considered to be as squeaky-clean as they come, has been accused of embarking on an extremely public affair with “CSI:Miami” actor Eddie Cibrian.

Though fans are often more forgiving of celebrities than the public is of private organizations, sometimes going so far as to encourage negative behavior if it provides enough entertainment, Rimes will likely need to do some crisis management related to alleged affair.

Rimes may not be having a good time, but I was quite entertained by the fact that me being quoted in the CNN article about her crisis resulted in an inquiry from a literary agent and also an invite to guest (by phone) on KSON country radio’s, “Cliff & Company” show, where a boisterous time was had by all!
