LeAnn Rimes is in rehab

LeAnn Rimes has checked into a 30 day in-patient rehab facility to deal with "anxiety and stress," her rep lied confirmed to People. Anxiety and stress? You know what regular people call that? Life. Toughen up, bitch

"While there will be speculation regarding her treatment, she is simply there to learn and develop coping mechanisms. While privacy isn't expected, it's certainly appreciated."

Rimes tells PEOPLE she hopes to emerge from treatment with better tools to deal with the life she'll be returning to.

"This is just a time for me to emotionally check out for a second and take care of myself and come back in 30 days as the best 30-year-old woman I can be," she says. "All the things in my life will be there when I get out, but you know what? I'm hoping they're not going to affect me as much. I'll have the tools to know how to deal with them."

Obviously this is complete bullshit. No one voluntarily moves into a treatment facility for 30 days to develop coping mechanism to deal with stress. That's what therapy is for. I think it's pretty clear what's going on here: LEANN RIMES IS A SECRET CIA OPERATIVE ON A MONTH-LONG MISSION TO DESTROY AL QAEDA ONCE AND FOR ALL. Oops, I meant she drinks too much.
