Jenna Bush Hager couldn’t help but ask Lauren Conrad, Stephen Colletti and Kristin Cavallari their thoughts on Spencer Pratt running to become the mayor of Los Angeles.
While Conrad and Colletti, both 40, dodged the question by explaining that they live in Orange County and aren’t eligible to vote in L.A., Cavallari, 39, offered an answer.
“He’s on to something, we’ll see what happens,” Cavallari said during her Wednesday, April 8, appearance on Today With Jenna & Sheinelle, noting that she also cannot vote for him because of her Tennessee residency. “I will always have a soft spot for Spencer, I think he’s great.”
Bush Hager, 44, continued to chat with Conrad, asking whether things were “healed” between her and Pratt. (Conrad had a falling out with Pratt and his wife, Heidi Montag, on The Hills.)
“Sure,” Conrad replied. “Sorry, you’re asking me about people I haven’t spoken to in decades.”
Pratt announced his mayoral bid in January, one year after the Palisades Fire that burned down the home he and Montag shared with their two sons, Gunner, 8, and Ryker, 3.
“The system in Los Angeles isn’t struggling, it’s fundamentally broken,” Pratt said at the “They Let Us Burn” public demonstration at the time. “It is a machine designed to protect the people at the top and the friends they exchange favors with while the rest of us drown in toxic smoke and ash. Business as usual is a death sentence for Los Angeles, and I’m done waiting for someone to take real action.”
He spoke candidly with Us Weekly exclusively that same month about what he’s hoping to accomplish as the city’s mayor. (Earlier this month, the UCLA Luskin School of Public Affairs released a poll declaring that Pratt had jumped to second place in the city’s mayoral race with 11 percent of the support.)
“The ending that I am hoping for is justice for the people of Los Angeles. It’s the same reason why we filed the lawsuit — to get to the truth,” he said while promoting his memoir, The Guy You Loved to Hate: Confessions from a Reality TV Villain, which was published in January.
“Winning the mayor’s race will be a victory for truth and transparency, which is what I’ve been fighting for this whole year,” Pratt continued. “The end goal is the same: to shine a light into the darkness.”
