LeAnn Rimes reveals years of dental struggles after veneers mishap during live show
The 42-year-old singer - who made headlines last month when her dental veneers fell out during mid-song during a concert - first had them at around the age of 16, before another dentist didn't bond the veneers correctly while redoing them at a later stage, which resulted in years of oral surgeries and multiple root canals.
Speaking to Flow Space magazine, she said: "I look at my pictures from that time, and my face was so different — it was just so swollen.
'Oh, it was awful. I was in chronic pain for, like, two-and-a-half years.'
The Can't Fight The Moonlight singer previously revealed to her fans that she was diagnosed with high-grade dysplasia last year.
The discovery was made when a routine Pap smear
after a routine Pap smear found pre-cancerous cells in her cervix.
She decided to be candid with her social media followers to try and encourage a more honest conversation about female health.
She added: 'I just feel like it's not something we talk about, and something so many women feel so much shame around.
Meanwhile, LeAnn has also sought to get rid of the stigma around perimenopause, having first experience her own symptoms in her late 30s.
The star - who takes hormone replacement therapy (HRT) - revealed: "I thought I was crazy for about two years. I was waking up at 3 a.m. all the time, and having really, really heavy anxiety.'
After speaking to The Menopause Reset author and chiropractic doctor Mindy Pelz, she was encouraged to speak to her husband Eddie Cibrian about the issue.
LeAnn revealled: 'She was like, 'Look, I've seen marriages literally implode over this… because no one really explains it to [men].'
'She was always telling me, 'If you're feeling something, express it to him.' And I do; I'm really vocal about it.'
Eddie, 52, admitted to the outlet in an email that he is "one of the lucky ones" because of how frank his wife is about any issues.
He said: 'She really committed to learning and seeking out help early on.
'We were never in a position wondering why these things were happening. We knew the why, which is a huge step for most couples.'

‘Target': Pop star LeAnn Rimes reveals fallout of torrid affair with Eddie Cibrian
LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian's infamous affair came with major fallout. The Can't Fight the Moonlight singer, 42, looked back on 'all of the craziness' that she and Cibrian, 52, dealt with when they cheated on their respective former spouses over 15 years ago. 'I realised very quickly that there are a lot of women who've been hurt,' Rimes said in a new interview with Flow Space. 'Like, I've been on both sides of that coin — I've been cheated on, too, so I know that feeling.' 'But so many women don't know what to do with that anger,' Rimes continued. 'I was a target that was just easily projected upon. And once I realised that, things got a lot easier.' Rimes and Cibrian started their affair in 2008 while they were filming the Lifetime movie Northern Lights. At the time, Rimes was married to actor Dean Sheremet, while Cibrian was married to The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum Brandi Glanville. Rimes explained in the interview that over time, she learned how to handle the backlash to her and Cibrian's relationship. 'Instead of taking it so personally, it's like, look: This is not all my pain to carry. I know what I'm responsible for in the situation and making amends for that,' she said. 'But you know, the world's pain is not mine to carry,' the Masked Singer winner added, 'and I think that really got thrown at me for a long time.' Rimes – who married Cibrian in 2011 and became a step mum to his and Glanville's sons Mason, 22, and Jake, 18 — also recognised how much she's changed since the scandal. 'I think I've gone from survival to thriving to — if there is a level up from thriving — to truly living,' she said. 'I think that's where I'm headed.' Cibrian initially denied that he and Rimes had an affair in 2009. Later that year, the CSI: Miami actor and Rimes split from their respective spouses and went public as a couple. In 2010, Rimes told People that her affair was 'one of the most selfish things that I could possibly do, in hurting someone else.' 'I take responsibility for everything I've done. I hate that people got hurt, but I don't regret the outcome,' the 'Blue' singer added. Glanville, for her part, was furious over her husband's affair and even once threatened to 'murder' Rimes. 'I walked over to her, grabbed Jake and I looked at her and said: 'I will f–king murder you,' the Bravo alum continued, adding that she 'was so mad at Eddie for blowing up our life together.' However, Glanville has made amends with her ex-husband and his wife. She's even spent holidays with the couple over the years.

LeAnn Rimes reveals years of dental struggles after veneers mishap during live show

Singer, fans perform pro-Nazi salute at Croatia concert
A hugely popular right-wing Croatian singer and hundreds of thousands of his fans have performed a pro-Nazi World War II salute at a massive concert in Zagreb, drawing criticism. One of Marko Perkovic's most popular songs, played during the late Saturday concert, starts with the dreaded "For the homeland - Ready!" salute, used by Croatia's Nazi-era puppet Ustasha regime that ran concentration camps at the time. Perkovic, whose stage name is Thompson after a US-made machine gun, had previously said both the song and the salute focused on the 1991-95 ethnic war in Croatia, in which he fought using the American firearm, after the country declared independence from the former Yugoslavia. He says his controversial song is "a witness of an era". The 1990s conflict erupted when rebel minority Serbs, backed by neighbouring Serbia, took up guns, intending to split from Croatia and unite with Serbia. Perkovic's immense popularity in Croatia reflects prevailing nationalist sentiments in the country 30 years after the war ended. The WWII Ustasha troops in Croatia brutally killed tens of thousands of Serbs, Jews, Roma and antifascist Croats in a string of concentration camps in the country. Despite documented atrocities, some nationalists still view the Ustasha regime leaders as founders of the independent Croatian state. Organisers said half a million people attended Perkovic's concert in the Croatian capital. Video footage aired by Croatian media showed many fans displaying pro-Nazi salutes earlier in the day. The salute is punishable by law in Croatia, but courts have ruled Perkovic can use it as part of his song, the Croatian state television HRT said. Perkovic has been banned from performing in some European cities over frequent pro-Nazi references and displays at his gigs. Croatia's Vecernji List daily wrote that the concert's "supreme organisation" has been overshadowed by the use of the salute of a regime that signed off on "mass executions of people". Regional N1 television noted that whatever the modern interpretations of the salute might be, its roots were "undoubtedly" in the Ustasha regime. The station said that while "Germans have made a clear cut" from anything Nazi-related "to prevent crooked interpretations and the return to a dark past ... Croatia is nowhere near that in 2025". In neighbouring Serbia, populist President Aleksandar Vucic criticised Perkovic's concerts as a display "of support for pro-Nazi values". Former Serbian liberal leader Boris Tadic said it was a "great shame for Croatia" and "the European Union" because the concert "glorifies the killing of members of one nation, in this case Serbian". Croatia joined the EU in 2013. Croatian police said Perkovic's concert was the biggest ever in the country and an unseen security challenge, requiring the deployment of thousands of officers. No major incidents were reported.
