The Prattfall: You Decided—E!’s Officially Speidi-Free

Speidi Free Graphic, Heidi Montag, Spencer Pratt, Heidi Pratt

Say goodbye to Heidi and Spencer Pratt. As far as E! is concerned, the conspicuous couple occasionally self-referred to as Speidi are so dunzo.

A startling 94 percent of you elected for the Hills stars' immediate expulsion. Consider them gone from our wheelhouse, voted off the island, fired, out and any other appropriate reality-show catchphrase.

Their planned attempt at hijacking the I'm a Celebrity?Get Me Out of Here! reunion special on Wednesday? You won't read about it here. Barring any actual news (e.g., she gets knocked up, he falls off a cliff or?heaven help us?her album goes to No. 1), consider this their very last post.

Time to Be Speidi-Free? Find Out Tonight on E!

We asked a simple question: Have you had enough Spencer and Heidi Pratt?

And you responded. Oh, did you.

You voted with such fervor and enthusiasm that you very nearly overwhelmed our servers. You posted comments—nearly 4,000 of them—filled with passion, poetry and some strongly worded opinions (and salty language) about the reality show couple known as Speidi.

You came through, and now it's time to get the results. Tune in tonight to E! News at 7 p.m. E/P and find out what happened.

Will they eke out a surprise win? Or go down to defeat in a landslide? Will Spencer find some way to try to spin the outcome to their advantage?

In short, the wait is over. Don't miss the exciting conclusion tonight. Only on E!  

Is Selling a Speidi-Mocking T-Shirt Free Speech?

If I try to profit from a celeb's image by, say, selling T-shirts advocating "Paris Gave Me Speidi," could I be sued?
—the_wackness, via Twitter

See, I don't even know what that phrase means.

But your answer is this: If you actually made that T-shirt, and Speidi wanted to sue, it could, and it would probably win. (And the "it" is not a misprint.)

The reasoning behind that statement is generally referred to by lawyers as "right of publicity," and if Speidi loves anything more than itself, it's publicity...

Rise 'n' Shine: Taylor Swift & T-Pain Tell Thug Story

•  You already knew about the Taylor Swift-T-Pain collaboration, but you ain't seen nuthin' 'til you've watched T-Swizzle and T-Pizzle tell their "Thug Story." The country starlet may have swept up a pair of CMT Awards last night, but she's really "so gangster you can find [her] baking cookies at night."

Al Roker Sorry, Speidi Forgives…Sorta

Today Show, Al Roker, Heidi Montag, Spencer Pratt NBC

As Speidi lightning continues to strike on Al Roker, the Today show icon is maintaining his sense of humor.

During a recap on this morning's episode, Meredith Viera showed a clip of yesterday's much-discussed interview with Spencer and Heidi Pratt. When Roker asked if it looked like an attack, as they claim, the hostess pointed out that what she showed was only a small segment.

"I kept going, then I hit them with Mace and tied them up," he joked.

"Spencer said, 'He's lucky I was saved by Jesus because a couple of weeks ago, I probably would have ripped his head off for talking to my wife like that,' " Viera read from the transcript before asking Roker, "Are you proud?"

"Yes, I am," Roker replied. "I believe I asked what a lot of people wanted to know and, if he had tried to come across, I would have dumped him like a bag of dirt."

The Hills stars, for their part, claim to have forgiven the weather guru…but not before attempting to insult him.

Heidi Pratt: Al Roker Attacked Me!

Today's Speidi forecast: cloudy with a chance of mudslinging.

Heidi and Spencer Pratt made an appearance on the Today show this morning and received a grilling by grillmaster Al Roker.

Needless to say, the Hills diva was none too pleased with the line of questioning, and responded to it on Ryan Seacrest's radio show using fightin' words that mirrored the wavering torture accusations from their ill-fated appearance on I'm a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!

"To be honest, I would never be interviewed by that man again and I really would advise women especially to be careful around him because I feel like he definitely came and attacked me and I did not appreciate that at all," groused Heidi.

Spencer took a more passive-aggressive approach to his feelings about the segment.

"Torture," Schmorture: No Speidi Bounce

No wonder Guantanamo Bay's being closed. The demos for torture aren't all that hot.

Monday's I'm a CelebrityGet Me Outta Here!, featuring the "torture" of Most Awful Celeb Spencer Pratt and wife Heidi, averaged 5.2 million die-hards, per preliminary Nielsen estimates, about the same number the show scored last Thursday, prior to a weekend of high drama involving a Heidi hospitalization, and copious finger-pointing

Among the big four networks from 8-10 p.m., the NBC show ran last in viewers, and beat out only Fox's reruns among all-important adults 18-49.

I'm a Celebrity… begins its post-Pratts life Wednesday.

Reborn Speidi Welcomed Back to Celebrity Fold, But Heidi's Tummy Takes Them Out

Well, minus the emergency hospitalization, the lawsuit threats and errant talk of torture...the big conundrum turned into a whole lot of nothing.

Heidi and Spencer Pratt were pretty much unanimously welcomed back into the fold on Monday's two-hour I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! after emerging seemingly unscathed from a night spent in the Lost Chamber. 

"No surrender, no retreat," Spencer could be heard screaming as the two settled down for a long summer's nap.

"The only way we got through was praying, and Jesus delivered us," Heidi said afterward.

But Speidi and the raging case of faith they returned to camp with didn't win over everybody.

"I don't believe him for a second," newcomer Daniel Baldwin said of Spencer. "This is the wolf in sheep's clothing."

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

Heidi Pratt is out of the hospital.

A source close to Heidi and Spencer tells me the newlyweds remain in Costa Rica: "She's out, but she has to go back for more tests and treatments."

NBC has yet to comment on allegations that producers for I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! had locked Heidi away for three days without food and water before she was rushed to a local hospital on Saturday.

While Spencer's sister Stephanie claims the couple was horrifically mistreated, a show insider tells me the accusations are grossly incorrect...

Stephanie Pratt: "Heidi Thought She Was Dying!"

Were Spencer and Heidi Pratt deprived of food and water for almost three days while being forced to live in blacked-out seclusion on I'm a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here?

That's what their family is claiming. A show insider, on the other hand, says all reports that the pair were mistreated have been greatly exaggerated.

"They kept them locked up and through the roof they were dropping spiders the size of [Heidi's] hands in on her in the black," Spencer's sister, Stephanie, just told me at the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation's A Time for Heroes Celebrity Carnival in L.A.

"They treated them like they were criminals or terrorists," she added.

Stephanie said Heidi, who was reportedly rushed to a local Costa Rica hospital yesterday, was transferred to another medical facility today. She said she wasn't sure what the final diagnosis was. But it sure doesn't sound pretty...

Heidi Pratt Hospitalized in Costa Rica

Heidi Montag NBC

Whether by choice or by act of God, Speidi keeps getting out of I'm a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!

Heidi Pratt has been hospitalized in Costa Rica during her and Spencer's stay in "isolation" from the rest of the cast of the NBC reality series. Spencer accompanied his wife on the ambulance ride and remains by her bedside.

 

The news was broken by Spencer's 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…Her family is flying out to see her in the hospital."

The younger Pratt blames NBC for going "too far" in punishing the Hills couple after they tried to quit the bug-eating, jungle-surviving show after just one episode and then begged to return.

Last week, NBC exec Paul Telegdy said the "insincere, lazy, entitled" Pratts had been sent to "isolation," before producers would decide the twosome's fate on tomorrow's show, vowing that the Pratts "really are going to bare their souls."
