The Price Is Right host Drew Carey<\/a><\/strong> blasted reality TV star-turned-mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt<\/a><\/strong> in a pointed social media post, calling him unfit to lead Los Angeles ahead of the June 2 primary.<\/p>\n In a Threads post<\/a> shared May 22, the 68-year-old comedian and TV personality criticized Pratt as his campaign gained traction. Carey, a former U.S. Marine, did not hold back.<\/p>\n Carey\u2019s military background has shaped his outspoken views on leadership. By: Xavier Collin\/Image Press Agency<\/p>\n \u201cAnyone who votes for, or endorses Spencer Prattfall for Mayor of LA needs to get their head out of their ass,\u201d Carey wrote. \u201cI understand being angry\/unsatisfied, but at least get behind someone competent and not some serial scammer without a soul or moral compass. F*** this guy already.\u201d<\/p>\n Pratt rose to fame on The Hills and lost his home in the 2025 Palisades wildfire. A registered Republican, he launched his mayoral campaign during a rally marking the one-year anniversary of the fire.<\/p>\n Speaking on Fox & Friends, Pratt said he never planned to enter politics but felt compelled to run after losing his home alongside wife Heidi Montag<\/strong>. He accused city leadership of \u201ccriminal negligence.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI never wanted to be mayor\u2026 but once you uncover everything I have, these people in charge should have resigned,\u201d Pratt said.<\/p>\n Pratt and Heidi Montag joined a lawsuit against Los Angeles, alleging negligence in wildfire response. By: ZUMAPRESS.com \/ MEGA<\/p>\n Since entering the race, Pratt has become a vocal critic of incumbent Mayor Karen Bass<\/a><\/strong>. During an appearance on Andy Bachman<\/strong>\u2018s \u201cCreators Think,\u201dpodcast, he alleged, \u201cThey\u2019re corrupt because they\u2019ll then fail you, they\u2019ll let people burn alive and then they will actively cover it up with charity money.\u201d<\/p>\n He also claimed, \u201cMayor Karen Bass, after the Palisades burned down, 12 people burned alive, she worked with The Lede Company, which is a celebrity crisis PR firm, to alter the after action report regarding the failures of the Palisades fire.\u201d Bass\u2019 team has rejected those claims.<\/p>\n Pratt\u2019s campaign has attracted support from conservative figures. President Donald Trump<\/a><\/strong> praised him when asked by reporters.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019d like to see him do well,\u201d Trump said<\/a>. \u201cHe\u2019s a character. I assume he probably supports me. I heard he does. I heard he\u2019s a big MAGA person. He\u2019s doing well.\u201d<\/p>\n Erika Kirk also endorsed Pratt on X.<\/p>\n \u201cRegardless of the outcome of Spencer Pratt\u2019s race, what he\u2019s doing is authentically American,\u201d she wrote. \u201cSee a problem, become a part of the solution. His campaign ads are unconventional, but that\u2019s the point; it\u2019s refreshing. Instead of speaking like a career politician, he\u2019s speaking as an American who sees and deeply understands how fragile the simple things in life are when leadership fails.\u201d<\/p>\n Carey is not the only celebrity criticizing Pratt\u2019s campaign. Chelsea Handler<\/a><\/strong> also urged fans not to support the former reality star.<\/p>\n<\/span><\/div>\n
