Stephanie Pratt Criticizes Brother Spencer’s Mayoral Run: ‘Vote for Stupidity’
Stephanie Pratt, a former reality TV star known for her role in MTV’s The Hills, has publicly criticized her brother Spencer’s campaign for mayor of Los Angeles. In a series of posts on social media platform X, Stephanie expressed her disapproval of Spencer’s qualifications for the role.
Criticism of Spencer’s Mayoral Run
On Saturday, Pratt took to X to voice her concerns. “Spencer has done great work for the Palisades,” she acknowledged. “But LA does not need another unqualified and inexperienced mayor. A vote for him is a vote for stupidity,” she stated, suggesting that his candidacy lacks merit.
She elaborated that her brother is more focused on maintaining fame and promoting his newly released memoir, The Guy You Loved to Hate: Confessions from a Reality TV Villain, than on serving the public. Her criticism highlighted that Spencer’s past and current intentions might compromise the sincerity of his political ambitions.
Concerns for Los Angeles
Stephanie further explained her position, saying, “I would love him to be mayor of Palisades but not LA with 4 million people.” She emphasized her fears regarding the city’s future under inexperienced leadership. “I’m WORRIED about LA. I have no problem with Spencer playing government but our city needs help,” she added.
Family Dynamics and Reality TV Legacy
The relationship between Spencer and Stephanie has been tumultuous, frequently depicted in their reality TV days. Stephanie concluded her posts by reaffirming her loyalty to Lauren Conrad, a fellow cast member. She claimed, “I always side with the vulnerable who need help, not the people inflicting pain on others.”
