Al Roker Fires Another Shot In Speidi Feud On 'Jimmy Fallon'

Posted 6/18/09 11:02 am EST by in Television


Last night on "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon," Al Roker fired the latest shot in his mini-feud with Heidi and Spencer Pratt. The "Today" show co-host said he had no idea who "Speidi" was when he was told he would be interviewing them (he joked that he expected to see Tobey Maguire instead). But the real laughs came when he accused the "I'm a Celebrity ... Get Me Out of Here!" stars of coming under the influence of certain natural forces in the jungle. "They were in the Costa Rican jungle, and they probably had some slug that climbed into their head through their ear and ate through their brain," Roker told Fallon.

So what do you think: Has Roker ended the conflict or have Heidi and Spencer gotten the best of America's favorite meteorologist?

Are Spencer Pratt And Heidi Montag The Best Reality Stars Ever?

Posted 6/9/09 4:52 pm EST by in Television


I'll be the first to admit that I'm no reality-TV conossieur and I'm hardly an expert on "The Hills." So Monday night's "I'm a Celebrity … Get Me Out of Here!" was the most prolonged exposure to the phenomenon known as Speidi — a.k.a Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag-Pratt — I'd ever had.

Man, those two are impressive. In that short time, they've quickly leaped to the top of my list of all-time great reality TV villains. Forget Puck, Omarosa, Simon Cowell, Jon & Kate, chef Gordon Ramsay, New York and previously untouchable "Rock of Love" fight club provocateur Lacey Conner.

Spencer and Heidi are the tops because not only are they abrasive, entitled, oblivious, mean, egomaniacal, irritating and self-righteous, they're also apparently madly in love.

Heidi And Spencer Come Back, Throw Up, Find Jesus And Leave ... Again

Posted 6/9/09 1:09 pm EST by in Television


Spencer Pratt
I want to sue NBC for torturing me by making Monday night's "I'm a Celebrity ... Get Me Out of Here!" two-hours long. Not cool.

"But Jim," NBC might argue, "we had so much to cover, what with Speidi returning and then Heidi getting sick and then Janice having a panic attack and Lou Diamond Phillips busting out a British accent!"

Phooey.

So Speidi survived a night in The Lost Chamber. It was completely uneventful. The drama began when they returned to the camp. A newly-spiritual Spencer told his castmates the tale of his recent awakening. It involved a tremendous amount of vomit, or as he and Heidi put it, getting rid of the demons. (Their word choice will make my next hangover feel supernatural! Thanks, guys!) In fact, now Spencer was so charged with the Holy Spirit that he and Heidi were fasting for God. Seriously. All the Godspeak had new cast member Daniel Baldwin bitching about the show turning into Jesus Camp. I wouldn't go that far, Daniel. Until Sanjaya or Lou Diamond Phillips gets caught having down-low sex on a meth binge, there's nothing "Jesus Campy" about this show.

Did You See This!? 'American Idol,' Green Day, Speidi And More!

Posted 4/23/09 11:30 am EST by in Did You See This?


By Kathleen Newman-Bremang, Matt Wenzel and Talia Manzo

It was a dramatic double-elimination disco week on "American Idol"! Look back at the night two contestants got the boot and learn more about the songs behind Kris Allen's and Adam Lambert's standout Tuesday-night performance.

After months of speculation, a director has been announced for "Eclipse," the third film of the "Twilight" saga. David Slade has directed vampire movies before, so let's hope he can put that experience to good use.

In celebration of Friday's premiere of the video for "Know Your Enemy," we take a look at Green Day's greatest videos over the extent of their career.

Is it just us, or do musicians love to get naked in their music videos? Matt and Kim are the most recent to do so, and we took a look at a few other artists who have appeared in their birthday suits.

Heidi and Spencer are finally tying the knot this Saturday, and we thought we could help them out with the all-important choice of a song for their first dance. Check out our top-five song choices for the lovely "Hills" pair.

Miley Cyrus, Spencer, Heidi And Four Weddings Help Tim Kash Celebrate The New Year

Posted 12/31/08 12:36 pm EST by in Miley Cyrus, New Year's Eve, The Hills


Miley Cyrus
Two time zones, two different coasts, 1,000 screaming kids, two live shows, one plane ride, four weddings and one Miley Cyrus — that pretty much sums up my New Year's '09 celebrations and the next 24 hours of my life!

I arrived at LAX yesterday for one of our biggest shows of the year: "FNMTV Presents: A Miley-Sized Surprise ... New Year's Eve 2009" (long title, huh?). As always, MTV's annual New Year's show will be broadcast live from New York's Times Square — but this year we're spicing things up in a very big way. And that's what brings me to the Los Angeles area.
