Anyone who is even remotely aware of The Hills knows that Spencer Pratt became famous for targeting women. Now before you ask: “Wasn’t that show fake?” I don’t care. It was very real to me. And besides, nearly two decades later, he’s now admittedly targeting another woman.
On Saturday, the father of two joined Bethenny Frankel‘s final (until Sunday afternoon) TikTok Live to discuss the triumphant resurgence of his wife Heidi Montag‘s music. In case you missed it, Pratt has pleaded with the internet to stream Montag’s one and only album, Superficial, to aid their current financial hardships after they sadly lost their home to the L.A. wildfires. Fortunately for them, it’s worked. Last week, it even beat out Bad Bunny. How? In short, because Pratt called in some help from social media’s most-followed people, including Alex Cooper. According to Pratt, however, Cooper wasn’t much help.
“I asked [Alex] to post the song, and I texted her husband [Matt Kaplan] and I was like, ‘Hey, it would really help,’” Pratt told Frankel during the TikTok Live on Saturday. “I kept tagging her, messaging…” Eventually, Cooper did reply but not in the way Pratt would’ve preferred.
“She wrote to me, ‘We have a lot of people displaced [from the fires] at our house.’ And I’m like, ‘Post the song, girl.’” Classic. Mind you, Pratt was a guest on Call Her Daddy (and stormed out of the interview) in 2022.
In a vintage Pratt move, he then added that he’s now on the side of Cooper’s former Call Her Daddy co-host, Sofia Franklyn.
“Now I ride with Sofia with an F, that’s my team now,” he boasted. “Sofia with an F posted the song, did a dance.” But that’s not all! Pratt then added that he now considers Cooper at the top of his “hit list.”
“Respectfully, if I keep my platform, and I keep being an A-list, rich celebrity, she’s so [fucked],” Pratt said. “Cause I have beef with her now. She’s going to be targeted.” I actually can’t tell if he’s kidding about the whole A-list, rich celebrity bit, but he did go on to clarify that he and Montag’s lifestyle isn’t quite as glamorous as it might’ve been once upon a time.
On the other hand, the couple is reportedly doing rather well thanks to Montag’s 2010 album and—credit where credit is due—Pratt’s campaigning online.
“I made, like, $4,000 on TikTok this week, but on TikTok Live, where people can just give to me direct, I think [I made] maybe $20,000,” Pratt told Variety over the weekend.
