Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Brandi Glanville on LeAnn Rimes: 'Imitation is the highest form of flattery'

Brandi, the newest cast member of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, dishes to Life & Style about her ex-husband's new wife, LeAnn, and what she thinks of their eerie similarities!

"Imitation is the highest form of flattery -- I have to look at it that way; otherwise, it could get creepy," Brandi, 38, explains to Life & Style. "I don't know why LeAnn would feel the need to compete with me."

Since LeAnn met Eddie, Brandi's then-husband, on the set of the Lifetime TV movie Northern Lights in 2009, there have been some strange similarities between Brandi and the country singer. When LeAnn married Eddie in April, she wore the same designer, Reem Acra, who designed Brandi's gown when the new reality star wed the actor in a beachfront ceremony in May 2001. And "obviously, there's a similarity in the way we look these days," Brandi confesses.

But Brandi says she's not fazed by any of it!

"I don't think I could be shocked by anything LeAnn says or does anymore," Brandi confides. LeAnn has said in the past that she doesn't consider herself a stepmom and treats Brandi and Eddie's sons, Mason and Jake, "as if they are my own."

"When she has a child of her own, she'll understand how a lot of the things she says and does regarding my children can be construed as really inappropriate," Brandi tells Life & Style.
