Heidi Montag
Gossip

Spencer and Heidi Pratt made an unlikely new enemy in Al Roker, who had the misfortune of interviewing the gruesome twosome on Monday's Today show.

The Hills stars were grilled on their recent stint on NBC's I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here, which they left for good after an extremely tumultuous week.

The once-portly weatherman couldn't hide his disdain.

After Heidi danced around a question of whether she was proud of her conduct on the show, Roker cut her off sternly: "No [the question is], are you proud of this?"

Al also told "villain" Spencer that most people think he's more like a "jerk."

After the interview, Roker continued to go off on Speidi via Twitter.

"Heidi and Spencer are an interesting couple. famous for... being infamous," he wrote. "Bad and vacuous behavior. I think we're at minute 11 of their 15."

Always one to make sure he gets the last word, Spencer Pratt hit back on Ryan Seacrest's KIIS-FM radio show this morning with this hilarious response:

"Was the weatherman asking questions? I thought we were getting interviewed by Matt Lauer. We were thrown off that the weatherman was even trying to talk to Speidi."

His wife also had some choice remarks.

Even though she said upon her return from the Costa Rican jungle, where she had been on I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here, that she would love to be in Playboy "one day," sources say Heidi Montag's shoot for the mag is over and done with.

But before you get too excited about seeing Heidi Montag naked in the pages of Hugh Hefner's rag ... don't. You're not gonna see as much as you think.

Although she exposed plenty of skin during the shoot, Mrs. Spencer Pratt did cover up the girls. She'll also featured on two covers, but won't be nude.

So it appears that Spencer, the doctors that conduct her plastic surgery, and the cameramen from MTV are the only ones who get to see the real deal.

Then again, just be patient. Wait until The Hills goes off the air and she gets even more desperate for money and fame. You know that a time will come.

Spencer Pratt sex tape, anyone?

She's staged a fake wedding, is the owner of fake boobs and made up a fake story about being tortured this week on I'm a Celebrity … Get Me Out of Here.

But it turns out one Heidi Montag rumor is actually legitimate: The Hills star really will pose naked in Playboy!

Because her and creepy boyfriend Spencer Pratt clearly don't get enough exposure, a source has confirmed that Heidi won't just appear in the September issue of everyone's favorite men's magazine; she'll don her birthday suit for it.

"There is nudity. It's tasteful. She had a lot of fun with it," said a source.

Does this count as "tasteful nudity?" Heidi Montag fans both hope she shows a lot more in Playboy.

What is your reaction to a naked Heidi Montag?

It was only a matter of time.

In the past week, Heidi Montag suffered an epic meltdown, bolted the Costa Rican jungle in a huff more than once, and was taken to the hospital after falling ill on the set of NBC's reality show I’m a Celebrity ... Get Me Out of Here.

But remember, this is Heidi we are talking about. As in, the wife of the great Spencer Pratt. Nothing can stop the gruesome twosome from trying to cash in!

If you recall, the 22-year-old reality TV star brought along dry shampoo as her "single luxury item" under the series’ rules, then flipped the f*%k out when one of her competitors yoinked it, eventually leading to Speidi's first departure.

Well, a rep for Heidi confirms that the 22-year-old star is getting ready to launch - you knew it was coming - her very own dry-shampoo line.

Heidi Montag as we are used to seeing her (right), and during her stint on I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here, where she was seen sans makeup for a change.

The product will be called, appropriately, Heidi Montag Dry Shampoo.

No need for The Hills' plastic princess to worry about running out of the stuff in the future - she’ll have an entire line all to her useless self.

Earlier, we gave you the 4-1-1 on Spencer and Heidi Pratt's latest - and maybe, presumably final - departure from I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here.

Despite the rumors to the contrary (ones started by moronic Stephanie Pratt no less), Speidi was not tortured, and Heidi's visit to a Costa Rican hospital was caused by a gastric ulcer, one possibly related to self-inflicted fasting.

As you can see in the video clip below, Heidi was definitely in rough shape, but not from “being locked in a dark room for 3 days with no food or water.”

Honestly, Stephanie, just STFU already.

We imagine that somewhere, Lauren Conrad is getting a pretty big kick out of watching Heidi in this state. We know millions across America certainly are.

Check out NBC's footage of Speidi's trip to the hospital - but turn your head away to avoid hurling all over your keyboard when Spencer starts the baby talk:

Heidi and Spencer: 'Celebrity' Hospitalization

It's official. Heidi and Spencer Pratt have left the island. And unlike the Oceanic Six (Lost spoiler alert!), in the case of Speidi it looks like it's for good.

After multiple attempts to quit, allegations of torture by NBC and a trip to the hospital, the gruesome twosome finally bailed on I'm A Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here - even though they were welcomed back into the competition Monday night.

The Hills stars were pretty much unanimously allowed back into the fold on the program after emerging from a night in the "Lost Chamber."

"No surrender, no retreat," Spencer Pratt could be heard screaming. "The only way we got through was praying, and Jesus delivered us."

But Speidi's alleged resurrection didn't win over everybody.

"I don't believe them for a second," newcomer Daniel Baldwin opined on Spencer and Heidi. "This is the wolf in sheep's clothing."

Even Daniel's brother Stephen Baldwin, a born-again Christian himself, thought Spencer was exhibiting a "spiritual hemorrhoid" in his zeal.

Heidi was hospitalized Saturday after a night in the shack, setting off a war of words between Spencer (who may sue), NBC (which will sue back), Stephanie Pratt (who says Heidi was tortured) and Speidi's publicist (who says no torture occurred).

From what we've gathered, it turns out Heidi came down with intense stomach pain and started vomiting, she hadn't eaten since the night before and, according to her fellow contestants, she wasn't drinking enough water, either.

"I threw up at least 10, 15 times last night," said the ailing Heidi Montag, who was hospitalized in Costa Rica and treated before being released.

Spencer added: "If Heidi is sick, then I'm sick because we are of one flesh."

Later in the episode, camp leader Lou Diamond Phillips informed his fellow celebrities (term used loosely) that Speidi would not be returning.

"They are no longer a part of this competition," he said. "They are gone."

Calling it the "best decision of their lives," Spencer Pratt confirmed they are leaving for good, and that it was the "best decision" of their lives.

"We gave it our all in the competition," he said.

"Now, it's about our health. At the end of the day, we went back in and proved it wasn't about us. This was a life-changing experience."

But not to fear, Speidi followers. NBC - surprise - had anticipated such an event. Heidi's sister, Holly Montag, is now coming aboard this week!

Reports surrounding the hospitalization of Heidi Montag as she filmed NBC's I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here! in Costa Rica continue to show varying, conflicting accounts of how The Hills star was/is being treated on the show.

Stephanie Pratt, the annoying and generally worthless co-star and younger sister of Heidi's husband Spencer, says Montag's health was pushed to the absolute brink.

"Heidi was virtually on her deathbed," the She-Pratt said Sunday in L.A. "She's never been sicker in her life. I can't believe NBC did that."

Stephanie says she spoke to her brother over the weekend. "He was calling my mom until like 5 a.m. with updates about Heidi," she said. "They are just in the black rooms with no food or water and freakin' spiders biting them."

Asked if Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag will be staying on the show, the younger Pratt opined, "I really don't think so. Heidi is really in bad shape."

Earlier today, we reported that Spencer threatened legal action against NBC for the couple's treatment. But Celebrity insiders contradict these claims.

"The accusation that the couple was harmed in any way is completely false," the source says. "The room was not filled with critters and they were protected from the elements, unlike the other contestants, who endured some strong thunderstorms."

"When they came out, they were in good spirits ... No one at any point was held against their will. Everyone who is there wants to be there."

Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt have already tried to leave the set of I'm a Celebrity ... Get Me Out of Here! more than once since its premiere last week.

On Thursday, Pratt and Montag were banished to the show's "Lost Chamber" (below) as punishment for leaving the series after an epic meltdown ... then asking to return the very next night after blaming Satan and reconsidering.

While Stephanie Pratt says the couple was in the chamber 72 hours, a source says the couple was only there for 14 - 4:30 p.m. Thursday to 6:30 a.m. Friday.

The next day, Montag was admitted to a Costa Rican hospital.

"Basically, she started throwing up," Pratt explains. "She threw up like 30 times because she had no food in her. I guess she went unconscious and was rushed to the hospital with an IV in her arm. I understand [that quitting the show] was not cool ... It was absolutely awful. But the punishment they got went way too far."

Another insider claims that Pratt is exaggerating.

"There was no torture. Heidi and Spencer were covered with a ceiling and walls while their castmates have been through thunderstorms every night," the source says.

"They were not stuck in there for days, as Stephanie Pratt is claiming. She is talking like they were locked up like prisoners at Guantanamo Bay."

NBC had no comment. The show's production company, Britain's ITV Productions, refuted claims the couple was deprived of food or water: "All allegations of the celebrities being deprived of food and water are completely untrue."

As we reported yesterday, Heidi Pratt was rushed to the hospital, with what is now being called gastric ulcer, after being confined, with husband Spencer Pratt, to a dark room for a day and a night with only water, rice and beans.

It was designed as punishment by producers of I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here, after Speidi left the set after one whole episode, only to beg for a second shot.

Numerous, varied accounts of what happened during Spencer and Heidi's confinement are circulating online, and we've got the latest for you now.

One cast member reports NBC execs tried to convince Heidi Pratt (also known as Heidi Montag), who is now out of the hospital and on medication, to stay on the Celebrity set rather than take an ambulance to a hospital for treatment.

Paul Telegdy, NBC's Executive V.P. of Alternative Programming, admitted that Heidi and Spencer were thrown into isolation as punishment, adding, "...They are now going to be examined, and their value system utterly deconstructed."

In the wake of the drama, other cast members want out of I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here, but their passports have been taken away and they are under guard.

Spencer Pratt has reportedly fired his lawyer (who wanted him to stay on the show) and is now planning to sue NBC over the show. Spencer and Heidi now want out - for good - but they signed a contract with NBC to do the show.

Spencer says he was tortured by NBC and plans on suing the network.

ITV, the company that produces I'm a Celebrity, says Spencer's claims are "untrue," adding, "The health of the celebrity participants are of the utmost importance."

ITV adds a medic and doctor are there all the time and "allegations of the celebrities being deprived of food and water are completely untrue."

Folks behind the scenes also say that when Spencer and Heidi Pratt quit the show last Monday, they stayed in hotels for three days. Sources say there were no critters where they stayed, other than the usual bugs in Costa Rica.

They were indoors at all times protected from the elements, even as other cast members have been sleeping outside in thunderstorms. Moreover, Speidi was never in any danger and slept most of the time, and no one was held against their will.

Who's telling the truth and who's full of it? Like The Hills, are the facts blurred and somewhere in between? Guess we'll have to stay tuned to find out.

NBC 1, THG 0.

Heidi Pratt, the predominantly-plastic wife of Spencer Pratt, who is also known as Heidi Montag, was hospitalized Saturday in Costa Rica, according to reports.

The incident took place during the gruesome twosome's stay in isolation from the rest of the cast of NBC's reality show I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here.

Spencer Pratt accompanied his wife on the ambulance ride and remains by her bedside. Various reports said she was suffering from a stomach infection.

There was no immediate comment from either NBC or Spedi's rep.

The news was broken by Spencer's unintelligent sister, Stephanie Pratt, who Tweeted that "[Heidi was] rushed to the hospital and has an IV in her arm after being locked in a dark room for 3 days w/ no food or water. Pls pray she will be ok."

SAD SACK PRATT: Heidi Montag's week in Costa Rica has been tumultuous, to say the least. First, poor girl lost her dry shampoo. Now she's landed in the hospital.

Stephanie Pratt blames NBC for "going too far" in punishing The Hills pair.

Last week, Speidi tried to quit the bug-eating, jungle-surviving show after just one episode, then begged to return, then was relegated to a dark chamber for 24 hours straight while the rest of the cast voted on their possible return.

NBC executive Paul Telegdy said the "insincere, lazy, entitled" Pratts had to endure a stint in "isolation" before the cast and producers would decided their fate.

He says the Pratts "are going to bare their souls." We can't wait to see it. Here's hoping Speidi quits after a violent meltdown, then begs for a third chance.

Wondering why you hadn't heard from Speidi in the past 24 hours? Well, just about the only thing that could silence the gruesome twosome took place.

They tried to quit three times already, but a repentant (supposedly) Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt spent the night in the dreaded "Lost Chamber" as the cast of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! voted on their possible return.

The plastic pair thought they'd be surrounded in the dark by creepy critters as they had earlier in the week, but this time, "We did a more interesting psychological experiment," says Paul Telegdy, NBC's executive V.P. of alternative programming.

In scenes likely to be shown on Monday's episode, Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag were tormented by the sound of an acorn dragged by a fishing pole along the floor of the chamber, and the feel of wind on their backs, blown by a small tube.

"When we cut the lights," Telegdy recalls, probably delightedly.

"We have them on infrared cameras, and all we can say is you see two sets of terrified eyes, blinking, goggle-eyed, terror-struck! They prayed quite vigorously."

Before the lights were even shut off, Spencer hurt his hand trying to squish a spider, he called out, "I've dislocated my thumb! Emergency! Call a medic!'"

When the medic asked if Spencer could give a thumb's up, he still could. "'Then you haven't dislocated your thumb, Spencer! Sit down! Don't be ridiculous.'"

Telegdy says the medic responded, adding that Spencer continued, "'No, I've got to see a medic! This is the worst thing I've ever done in my life!'"

Unlike Spencer, we're at a loss for words reading this.

As for their chances of being allowed back on, comedian Angela Shelton, who was the first celebrity voted out of the jungle last night, isn't so sure.
