Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag dress up as Jon and Kate for Halloween.
Married stars of the MTV reality show “The Hills,” the overexposed and unaware Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag have decided to dress up as estranged reality show stars Jon and Kate Gosselin for Halloween. WTF?
That’s like a cat turd dressing up in a poop costume. It’s a little bit different, but much too similar to make a difference.
Spencer and Heidi not Tortured on I’m a Celebrity…But the Viewers Are

Contrary to reports all over the internet, The Hills’ Spencer Pratt and his wife Heidi Montag were not tortured on the NBC reality show, I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here.
Reports of Heidi being rushed to the hospital over the weekend because of a life-threatening stomach ailment caused by the cruel and unusual treatment by the show’s producers, were highly exaggerated and…well, just a load of crap.
The MTV lovebirds agreed to spend a together in a darkened room called “The Lost Chamber” in a challenge to decide their return to the competition (which they had quit three times in two days). Within hours Heidi was rushed to the hospital with a stomach ailment. Could it have been the same water-borne stomach ailment RRC reported on that sickened the crew weeks earlier? Possibly. But Heidi’s sister Twittered that it was much more horrific than that:
“[I'm] really saddened to hear that NBC felt it was ok to punish Speidi so harshly – and torture them as if they were criminals – that Heidi was rushed to the hospital and has an IV in her arm after being locked in a dark room for 3 days [with] no food or water. [Please] pray she will be ok. Her family is flying out to see her in the hospital. I know they pulled some shitty antics – but really NBC?? Too far.”
Within hours, reports of “torture” cropped up all over the internet, even thought that it was doubtful that the network and producers would set themselves up for the lawsuit that would follow such treatment.
Soon, the production company for I’m a Celebrity released this statement in their defense:
“ITV Studios, producers of the series, state that press reports at this time are untrue. ITV has been producing this format around the world for many years and the health of the celeb participants are of the utmost importance. A medic and a doctor are present at the location at all times for all participants. All allegations of the celebrities being deprived of food and water are completely untrue.”
Sensing that maybe their clients’ idiotic attention-grabbing shenanigans had gone too far, couple’s representative shot down the claims of torture, telling Entertainment Weekly:
“What we can say at this time is that Heidi went to a hospital in San Jose, Costa Rica on Saturday evening because she was not feeling well. She has been released from the hospital and is doing well,” the couple’s representative added. “In addition, it was reported the Pratts have fired their legal counsel. This is inaccurate.”
Ratings for I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here have been steadily declining since its debut last week, recently coming in last in its time slot.
