LeAnn Rimes -- like Miley Cyrus before her-- has departed the Twitterverse for the time being.

"Taking a break from twitter for a while," Rimes, 27, Tweeted on Wednesday. "It's unhealthy for me and my family to have to read negative comments from people who's [sic] opinions have no bearing on my life."

PHOTOS: Other couples who've hooked up on set

The divorced country singer came under intense attack Tuesday for paparazzi shots of her making out with beau Eddie Cibrian (with his young son inches away) in Santa Barbara, Calif.. "Since when is kissing your boyfriend a crime?!" she retorted on the microblogging site. (Rimes and actor Cibrian got together on the set of a Lifetime flick in late 2008, when they were both still married to other people.)

PHOTOS: See which star tends to overshare on Twitter

In her swan-song Tweets Wednesday, Rimes explained, "I love my fans so very much and will return one day soon. God bless to you all! I hope you understand. It's time for me to focus on healing, my happiness and my music. I can't wait to share it all with my fans soon!"

She added hopefully: "There's a million other ways to stay connected with my fans and I plan to focus on those! The most important, bringing you great music!

    I'll tell you who's really hot. Carrie Underwoods husband Mike Fisher. Now, he's eye candy. I just love the athletes. Their bodies are something to behold..I have never cared all that nuch for an actor's body . I guess because they are just acting and not playing sports.I just bet Carrie doesn't get on the twitter page and detail every aspect of their intimate life. Good for you, Carrie you are a class act. beautiful too, inside and out .I saw her at the airport once and she is such a gracious person. I am now a big fan of hers.

    Lenn rimes is the most self-centered, selfish, trying hard to be sexy and failing,trashy, immature woman I've ever seen. Eddie deserves her becaue he let her twitter away about his kids, when he told his wife to move on and get over it, and twitter about their sex life, twitter about him watching the BB playoffs and how he was getting upset about it, twitter about what they ate for dinner. I'm surprized she didn't twitter every time he went to the bathroom.Eddie Cibrian wanted a shallow , smug girl. well, he certainly got one. She even had to twitter about her crying because he had to go home for a few days to be with his kids. There is a very special placce called He*** reserved for you both. Hope you enjoy the heat, And I bet Eddie was raised a good Catholic boy. And if Dean is gay, it's probably because he couldn't stand to touch Leann

    Why does everyone continue to say Dean is gay. True, he's not rugged looking, but that doesn't make him gay. Seems Leanne is promoting that myth, trying to make her actions reasonable. However, IF he's gay, maybe that's what it took to put up with her for so long.

    Sadly, this is the consequences you face from your decisions. I think enough is enough and people should leave it alone, but you did in fact set yourself up for this. Most people don't agree with infidelity and how it affects spouses and children, I'm sure you would've felt the same way had it happened to you.

  • July 12, 2010 - 8:36am laney

    Please, celebs. Stop getting married when you have committment issues. Quit treating marriage as a joke. Not everyone can have the morals of say, Tom Hanks or Matt Damon. Men that I admire and not just for their acting, but for their integrity. When you do have issues with being faithful and then you bring children into the world and you have even the least bit of fame, you subject them and everyone around you to ridicule and pain. You horrible cheaters , stop getting married and procreating. Not for the public's sake but for the sake of your families. and , as sometimes happens, you fall OUT of love, get a DIVORCE before you go public and smear everyones face in your own crap.

    NCGAL - if you seriously have pics then sell them pronto!!! Shop them around to the diff mags and sell to the highest bidder, you could make serious money. The sad part is that Leann won't leave Eddie, even after his cheating is revealed, which, come on - he was cheating on his wife with Leann AND some other girl at the same time, plus his wife said they never stopped having sex - to to suddenly believe that this hot guy has miraculously become monagamous - I mean, I've got some beach front property to see you in AZ if you believe that one! NCGal, I'll look forward to the pics - and if you really see him all the time, make sure you get some good, clear shots and touching between the two to get the most money!

  • July 11, 2010 - 8:36pm janice

    If what that NCgal said is true , for the sake of your kids, and even leann don't get married again. stay single and just continue your whoring ways without anyone getting hurt in the process.and,for crying out loud ,don't have any more kids get your self fixed and do the world a favor. Brandi, I feel so sorry for you. all those years and he was screwing around every chance he got. Mr. and Mrs, Cibrian senior, smack him upside the head. He has kids now and he should give them more respect He must think he is Gods gift to the word. when I see his picture now I want to vomit....

  • July 11, 2010 - 8:24pm laney

    I truly feel sorry for those two children eddie Cibrian has, He might be a great looking guy, but he is missing a huge chunk of conscience. Cannot believe that anyone would not have more respect for their parents than to run around banging as many women as he can.. Never thought for one minute he was faithful to Brandi, but why on this earth did he bring two babies into this world to shame them. One of these days Mr. Cibrian ,you willregret how you have behaVED. I just hope with all my heart that you never get another acting job of any kind

  • July 11, 2010 - 6:56pm NCgal

    OK.. Who hasnt hooked up with Eddie? Everytime he is in NC he is always with the same lady. I have pics maybe I could sell them LOL When Eddie hooked up with his X he was with someone else KARMA. Honstly he is a awesome looking guy and who wouldnt? Say no all you want to but you know you would. He is sexy as hell and this lady in Raleigh NC seems to have a great time looks like it in the pics anyway. I met him at a bar and he was very nice and a player like all the other celebs that were there Charles Barkley Micheal Jordan etc. Look out I might be able to make some money off this aswell LOL

  • July 11, 2010 - 3:35pm lalagirl

    no one cares, they just hate you for infidelity and you look like a horse. has n e one told u that :)

  • July 11, 2010 - 1:10pm go away

    Hey, lean you'll br singing a sad country song soon because eddie runs out when the money runs out. Maybe you can recycle BLUE and all this time I thought it was just me who couldn't stand you

  • July 11, 2010 - 9:33am just saying

    i'll tell you what's amazing is that those two people have had their heads buried in sand for so long. They are stuck with each other now.

  • July 11, 2010 - 9:26am elaine

    Twitter only became unhealty for Leann when she realized she was not veruy popular and what a lot of people actually thought about her.

  • July 11, 2010 - 7:17am mary jo 2

    Most men when they fially apply for a divorce after leaving their wife and children, do not immediately go and start living with the mistress and start taking his kids to spend the night with the mistress and dad sleeping in the same bed. think in many states that is not allowed. Not here in Calif, I guess. I live here and that law should be considered because these people without morals are making our whole state look bad. Couldn't you have waited a decent amount of time before you moved youself and your children into her mansion. There are just as many good ,moral people out here as everywhere else. I love this state,and if you need to do nasty crazy things like that, please don't get on twitter and brag about it for a year. then when you find out real people don't think you are very nice and express that you act all shocked and say you need to heal and so does your family. You are what dear old dad used to say "Loud Mouth Lime"

    crimson-- actualy ,I was referring to the supposedly 7 or 8 million that she has to give Dean .Do believe that Dean earned every penny of that. Please don't let Eddie know that she only has about 7 or 8 million left.

  • July 10, 2010 - 9:46pm jane

    cry me a river Leann/ It's unhealthy for you and your family to hear negative comments Just what family is that ,the family that Eddie used to have with Brandi or the family that you want to have with Big eddie. I hope you both retire and leave public life and noone ever has to hear your names again. Poor little rich girl and poor little rich girls bf now chained more than he ever was in his life.. Just imagine that if he even so much as glances at a good-looking woman, he will have his allowance cut off

  • July 10, 2010 - 9:11pm Crimson

    @Metoo: LeAnn doesn't have millions to pay for lover-boob. Her life time gross sales are around $30mil, daddy stole $9mil, deduct approx. 35% state and fed taxes, Deane got about $8mil if they can ever sell that house, then there are realestate commissions, leasing homes in Cali., boy-boob costs, private jets, and providing for mommy dearest for 15 years. My bet is her current net worth is $6-8mil tops.

    Child support?? Eddie has a $30,000 dollar motorcycle (flat tire included) and a really nice car. Insurance is expensive. Surely no one expects him to sell his vehicle for something as inconsequential as child support. Come on people, have a heart!!

  • July 10, 2010 - 8:24pm U L

    Eddies's child support payments have been stopped because he got fired and is Unemployed, according to Brandi - from In touch. Guess he needs leann more than ever. L O S E R. what kind of pathetic man can't take care of his kids? well, leann, hope you saved your money.

  • July 10, 2010 - 7:52pm metoo

    leann, I would have paid 7or8 million to have him, too. He is fine and thanks to you and your money and fame plus your chasing after him and making his wife tell him to leave, we will never get to see him on screen again. Of course he is to blame, too, but you put all those millions in someones face and they become like putty..Now forever after he will be known as Mr Leann Rimes, Eddie cibrian will be no more And, that's what is called Justice.
