Country superstar LeAnn Rimes checked into rehab after Twitter trolls unleashed a torrent of abuse, Celebuzz has learned.
Rimes, 30, voluntarily entered a 30 day in-patient treatment facility to cope with anxiety and stress, it was announced Thursday.
“She is simply there to learn and develop coping mechanisms,” her rep said.
Celebuzz has learned part of the reason for Rimes’ treatment is months of unrelenting abuse on the internet and Twitter.
“It hasn’t stopped and they are clearly offensive,” a source close to the situation said. “It has been a campaign of abuse.”
One website, titled LunaticLeAnnRimes, has posted unrelenting messages and derided her appearance in photos with husband Eddie Cibrian, who was formerly married to Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Brandi Glanville.

The bullying of Leann Rimes is continuing. It is horrible. They are trying to destroy her and I think it is disgusting. I understand cheating is wrong but what has been done to her over the last 4 years is worse. It is especially bad at JustJared and Radaronline. Seems one particular escaped mental patient is attempting to ruin her and her career. Just go take a look. It needs to stop as it is the purest form of slander and bullying.
