LeAnn Rimes’ philosophy appears to be — the smaller the bikini, the better. While many of us are bundling up for winter, the singer has been photographed in a barely there bikini for the fourth time in the past month.
Wearing an exceptionally small swimsuit that barely covered her backside, Rimes frolicked on the beach in Maui, Hawaii, with an unidentified female friend. The two tossed a football and tried to tackle each other to the sand. As they rough-housed, Rimes had to keep pulling on her suit, which alternated between showing her, ahem, cheeks and butt crack.
When the duo realized that they were being photographed, they put on clothes and retreated, joining Rimes’ husband Eddie Cibrian and a male friend for lunch.
Before the holidays, Rimes and Cibrian vacationed in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. There, too, Rimes showed off her extremely svelte figure in tiny bathing suits. She was photographed yachting with Cibrian in a tiny white string bikini and the two also cuddled on their hotel balcony, Rimes in a tiny lavender suit. The singer tweeted a photo of herself in a brown bikini that barely contained her chest.
But Rimes has weathered criticism from fans for regularly tweeting bikini photos that show off her increasingly angular proportions. In May, after a Twitter user dubbed her “scary skinny,” Rimes fired back, “Those are called abs, not bones, love. This is my body, and I can promise you I’m a healthy girl. I’m just lean. Thanks for your concern, but no need to be. I am completely healthy! If people only saw how much I ate.”
