Heidi Montag may have already forgiven Al Roker for "attacking" her, but the war of words between the Today show weatherman and Speidi is not dead yet.
Yesterday, Roker said on Today that if Spencer Pratt had gotten physical during their contentious interview, he would have "dumped him like a bag of dirt."
Roker was addressing a comment Spencer made to TMZ in which the reality star claimed he would have "ripped his head off" during Monday's interview.
Would have, had he not been "saved by Jesus" a few weeks back, that is.
Man. Non-stop trash talk to celebrity gossip sites are one thing (and a good thing), but how much would you pay to see these two physically duke it out?
Also yesterday, Al Roker defended his allegedly harsh questioning of the gruesome twosome during the original interview, which sparked the Speidi feud.
"I believe I asked what a lot of people wanted to know," said Roker, who was in disbelief that Heidi Montag advised women to "be careful around him."
"C'mon. I've interviewed hundreds of women on this program, never had a complaint. [Heidi and Spencer] are so unused to people actually asking them a real question that they didn't know how to handle it," said the miffed Roker.
"There are a lot of celebrities who come on - real celebrities - who've actually done something and act civil."

Wow do these two make anyone else besides me physically sick? Spencer Pratt's picture should be in the dictionary next to the word "tool" and Heidi personifies the dumb blonde stereo type. We just didn't realize some blondes are deaf, dumb, and blind...the only possible explanation for why she would waste one more second with this idiot. As a mother of 2 teenage daughters, my heart breaks for Heidi's own mother. She must be wondering where she went wrong...I would. And Spencer's recent conversion to Christianity is a joke and borderline blasphemy the way he flaunts it. He doesn't have a clue about what it means to be a Christian...you need to live it Spencer..good luck. I think it's time we end this couple's "15 minutes" so they can learn how to be grownups and actually start contributing to society. Maybe they'll split up when they are no longer "CELEBRITIES"...come on people...that's great for all of us as God forbid they'd decide to have children. I vow not to buy another magazine, watch another interview or TV show if Heidi and Spencer are REMOTELY associated. It's pathetic and I will no longer fuel this fire.

I agree with Lisa. I think we should boycott NBC simply because they are promoting these tools for the ratings. If I was Spencer, I would be really concerned about the justice system coming back to bite (can we say "fraud"; how about "slander." I can go on and on. Oh yeah, I wouldn't cheat on my taxes either buddy!
