LeAnn Rimes 'comes clean' about surgery

Country sensation LeAnn Rimes is "in SO much pain" after undergoing recent jaw surgery. 

The superstar took to her official social networking page on Twitter (February 4) to tell her fans that she went under the knife last week although she didn't specify what kind of surgery she actually had:

"K, coming clean....I had minor surgery this week and I've been in SO much pain it's not even funny. Nothing major just annoying! Pain pain go away!!!!!! When it's mouth pain and jaw pain it makes your whole head pound! YUCK."

When asked by her followers why she had gone in for an operation, Rimes explained: "I'm ok, I will be soon. Medical stuff trying to fix."

She also added that she was due to work last week, but the pain she experienced was so severe that she simply couldn't: "I was supposed to work and I've been in so much pain from mouth surgery I went and laid outside on a lounge chair for hrs."
