LeAnn Rimes ‘Frustrated’ by Eating Disorder Accusations

LeAnn Rimes set tongues wagging recently, after pictures surfaced of her in a skimpy bikini on her Mexican honeymoon with new husband, actor Eddie Cibrian. But far from being complimentary, many fans alleged the 28-year-old's ultra-thin frame meant she was suffering from an eating disorder -- an accusation the songstress adamantly denies.

"For someone like me who is healthy, who works hard for my body, it's very frustrating," she tells People magazine. "People are calling me bulimic or anorexic, and these are real issues and diseases -- that I don't have."

The singer says she puts a high priority on her health. "I work out and take care of myself, and not in an over-obsessive way," she insists.

Her personal trainer, Michael Jackson, agrees. "My main concern with her is that she's toned and healthy. And she is," he asserts.

The new Mrs. Cibrian recently joined her spouse for a benefit for tornado recovery, following the deadly storms in Alabama and Missouri, which raised more than $30,000. The budding actress, whose previous credits include the TV movie 'Northern Lights' and the film 'Good Intentions,' will next star in a CMT movie, 'Reel Love,' opposite Burt Reynolds. The film is slated to air in the fall.
