Are LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian going broke? Star has conflicting information.

The gossip magazine dedicated its Apr. 7 cover story to the couple, with sources claiming that Cibrian "isn't pulling his weight financially" and that the 40-year-old actor "has no money of his own." Insiders also allege that the 31-year-old "Blue" singer "is exhausting every possibility she has to make a buck."

Per a "friend" of the couple, "LeAnn recently told Eddie that she was scared he'd leave her if she couldn't keep bringing in so much money, and it turned into a nasty fight. He told her to quit being paranoid, and she called him heartless. She wanted him to promise he wouldn't ever leave her, but instead he just left the room." Another insider tells the tabloid that Rimes "feels like she's all alone."

While it certainly makes a juicy story, Rimes insists it's just not true. In fact, she pointed out that the publication said $50 million was at stake when it reported her marriage was on the rocks just a few months ago. "Which one is it LOL," the Grammy-winning country music star asked her Twitter Wednesday. "#solidreporting."

The "Gasoline and Matches" singer tweeted, "Hahahaha wow, I must sell a lot of Star mags! Flattered."

In October 2013, the mag also alleged that Cibrian had been confiding in his ex-wife, Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Brandi Glanville. "Completely untrue," the Best Man Holiday star's rep told E! News at the time. "Amazing how Star dreams up these stories and then prints lies as possible truth."
