The villain of MTV’s hit reality show The Hills is making a plan to return to the spotlight. Spencer Pratt, 42, announced that he is running for mayor of Los Angeles on Wednesday, the one-year anniversary of the devastating wildfires that ravaged his hometown of the Pacific Palisades. Pratt has launched a campaign website that identifies him as “Pacific Palisades Resident & Karen Bass’ Worst Nightmare,” referring to the current mayor, who is seeking reelection. Pratt and his wife, The Hills co-host Heidi Montag, lost their home during the fire. He made the announcement on social media and in a speech during a “They Let Us Burn!” protest in the Palisades, but did not immediately specify which party he is running for. “Business as usual is a death sentence for Los Angeles, and I’m done waiting for someone to take real action,” he said. “That’s why I am running for mayor. And let me be clear: this just isn’t a campaign. This is a mission, and we are going to expose the system. We are going into every dark corner of L.A. politics and disinfecting this city with our light. And when we are done, L.A. is going to be camera-ready again.”
