For the first time in her life, it looks as though LeAnn Rimes has nothing to say after being dissed by her ex-husband, Dean Sheremet. The country star has stayed uncharacteristically quiet after Sheremet claimed that Rimes divorcing him was the "dumbest" thing she has ever done for her career.

The former chart topper, who usually likes to dispel rumors on her social networking accounts, has made no mention of her ex-husband, who recently dished about their divorce and how she made a horrible decision to leave him for her current husband, Eddie Cibrian.

In an interview with Nat's Next Adventure, Sheremet said that he never felt like he lived in Rimes' shadow, although he does admit that she would have been better off if she didn't cheat on him with Cibrian back in 2009.

He said, "It felt like we were a team. As it went on, the team became toxic. But when we were working together, we were brilliant. The dumbest thing she ever did for her career was divorce me. Because we were such a good team. The last hit song she had was when she was with me. It was 'Nothing Better to Do'. I had that title in my head and was kicking it around for a bit. We got our friend Darrell Brown, who is a phenomenal writer, to write it with us and we wrote the whole album."

As far as her cheating on him, he revealed, "Never in a million years did I think something like that would have happened. The need for me in her life was so strong. There were things she couldn't do without me. She had her own phone but never used it. People would call me to get to her. Everything went through me."

What's more, Sheremet added that he also sympathizes with Rimes and everything that she is dealing with in her life right now. Rimes hasn't been able to repair her reputation after she and Cibrian cheated on their spouses while they were still married so many years ago.

"She really lives on the adoration of others. I could be speaking out of turn but this is my perspective," he said. "She lives and dies on the perception of herself. I sympathize with that 'cause she's been famous since she was 12 years old so she doesn't know anything else. In LA, there's the paparazzi and that false sense of success, false security that you're still relevant."
