Margaret LeAnn Rimes Cibrian was born on August 28, 1982, in Jackson, Mississippi, United States. Her parents, Wilbur Rimes and Belinda Butler, relocated the family to Texas when LeAnn was six years old. From a young age, she showed a keen interest in music and began taking vocal lessons during childhood.
As a child, Rimes dedicated herself to improving her singing abilities, supplementing her vocal lessons with performances in musical theater productions in Dallas, Texas. Her interest in country music was sparked after a performance on the television talent show Star Search, where she impressed audiences with her vocal abilities. At the age of nine, she began touring and sang “The Star-Spangled Banner” at the opening of various football games, gaining attention for her stage presence at a young age.
Within five years, Rimes released three independent albums, showcasing her potential as a country artist. She eventually caught the attention of DJ and record promoter Bill Mack, who played a crucial role in bringing her talent to a wider audience. In 1994, she recorded the album All That, which included Mack's song “Blue.” Her rendition of the track would become a breakthrough moment in her career.
In 1996, the single “Blue” was re-released under major label Curb Records and became a national hit. That same year, Rimes won two Grammy Awards—Best New Artist and Best Female Country Vocal Performance—making her the youngest Grammy winner in history at the age of 14. She also received the Horizon Award for Best New Artist from the Country Music Association. Her self-titled album, LeAnn Rimes, released in 1999, topped the Billboard Top Country Albums chart.
In 2001, Rimes released the album I Need You, which received mixed critical reception but reached commercial success. Demonstrating her versatility, she also ventured into writing, publishing several children’s books including Jag's New Friend. Around the same time, she released the holiday album What a Wonderful World, further expanding her artistic repertoire.
Rimes continued to evolve musically with the release of This Woman in 2005, which earned her a Grammy nomination for Best Female Country Vocal Performance. The album became one of her bestsellers. Subsequent albums, such as Family (2007) and Spitfire (2013), reflected a more personal and mature sound, underlining her growth as an artist. Over the years, she has worked across various genres, including country, pop, and adult contemporary.
LeAnn Rimes married backup dancer Dean Sheremet in 2002. After six years of marriage, the couple divorced in 2010. During the filming of the television film Northern Lights, she met actor Eddie Cibrian. Following a publicized relationship, the couple married in 2011. As of now, they do not have children together.
Outside of music, Rimes maintains a strong presence on social media and actively engages with fans on platforms such as Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook. Her openness and interaction with followers have helped sustain her popularity over the years. As a result of her long-standing career and diverse talents, LeAnn Rimes has an estimated net worth of approximately $38 million.
