Are Rimes Dismisses Adultery Rumours True?

Country star LeAnn Rimes has addressed reports she cheated on her husband, dismissing them as "rumours" during a live U.S. TV interview. The singer is accused of cheating on her husband of seven years, Dean Sheremet, with Eddie Cibrian, her co-star in TV movie Northern Lights.

American tabloid Us Weekly has printed security camera footage it claims shows the clean-cut star kissing the actor on an intimate date in California earlier this month (Mar09).

But Rimes brushed off the allegations of infidelity on Wednesday (18Mar09) during an appearance on Live With Regis and Kelly.

She told the hosts, "Everything's great! There are rumours all the time. I let it roll of my back most of the time. It does get too much every once in a while but you know things pass, life happens". And the singer insists growing up in the spotlight since age 13 helps her cope with constant gossip.

She adds, "Every stage of your life has been played out in the public eye. Everything you read - it's not as easy as black and white".

On Wednesday Sheremet - who renewed his wedding vows with Rimes last August (08) - addressed the gossip himself, posting "I love my wife!!!" on Twitter.com.
