Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag are (big surprise!) freeloaders

Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag were among the handful of celebrities attending last night's Race to Erase MS fundraiser on trendy Melrose Place.

"The Hills" reality TV stars were handed -- and posed for photos with -- the special orange shopping card that gives a 20% discount to stores like Carolina Herrera, Diane von Furstenberg, Diesel,  Santa Maria Novella, salons like Frederic Fekkai, and restaurants Republic, Jumo, comme Ca, and Dolce.

The card - had Spencer and Heidi paid for it like regular folks - cost $75, which was a donation to fight MS via the Nancy Davis Foundation for Multiple Sclerosis. All the attending celebs - including big names Jon Lovitz and Tom Arnold - were carrying the card, which is valid until July 25.

When asked by L.A. Daily News columnist Joel Stratte-McClure (who just  happens to be my husband, which is why I got this scoop from his report) if they'd paid for the card, thereby making a $75 donation to fight MS, Pratt admitted that they hadn't.

"But we are going to do some shopping with it," he countered, adding, " I have no budget when it comes to charity."

When he was told that none of the money he planned to spend at the stores, restaurants or salons would go to the charity, he looked visibly relieved.

"I didn't know that! Dude, you just saved me a lot of money!" Pratt said with a big grin.

Did I happen to mention that Pratt and Montag don't set foot on a red carpet or attend parties or events without being paid. According to InTouch, the blond twins have earned about $3 mill in the last two years from their TV salaries, business deals and appearance fees at clubs, parties and charity events.

But at least they earned their money last night. After all, we are running this photo of them with the orange card. And I might not have run a photo of Tom Arnold or Jon Lovitz.

In fact, I'm quite sure I wouldn't have.

why is this guy spencer pratt on tv, did he go to acting school? sure does a good job acting worse than a child, I have never seen anyone on tv acting so selfish, so if this is for real and he has no acting experience GET HIM OFF HE IS A LOOSER does this guy have a job? or is he living off of daddys money, at his age sitting home plating arcade games my grandson who is 9 plays those games and has more responsiability then Pratt, I just can not understand why he is getting paid to be on the hills, I am sure our real actors in this world who have worked hard to get where they are get sick when they watch this grown up selfish thing!! his parents did not do a good job raising him, he does not even know how to treat his own girlfriends sister as a guest, this show would be much better without him, everytime he comes on I change the channel I can not stomouch a grown up selfish person, anyone that selfish, should be put in a school and learn what it is like to be an american, could you see this dude in the military? maybe that is where he should be, he'd get a good wake up call, I never make negitive comments about anyone, but this guy is a disgrace to human life

If you aren't trying to help him or care about him.
Why are you being so angry towards him?
What is he really doing wrong?
He can't help it if his parents didn't give him a lot of responsiblity.
I know about being spoiled and having a tough time in the real world. Im the same way. Minus the millions of dollars for showing up at clubs.
I feel for him, I don't hate him or bash him, what's the point.
He could BE if he found Scientology help himself out a lot.
He's an able being who's been disabled probably by his parents... not his fault, but he could easily put his attention to some good use.. give this guy a break!

Spencer is a master manipulator. He puppeteers his current ticket 2 fame, I mean girlfriend, like he's never had a toy to play with in his life. Heidi, or should I say Hei-nocchio, is so naïve and blind to his manipulation. If she would open her eyes, maybe she'd see how he displays nearly every characteristic of a sociopath.

When it all is said and done. L.C. gave all of them their ticket to fame. She did not have to have Heidi on the show. As a matter of fact. She said that MTV did not want Heidi to film the show with her. But L.C. would not have it. I wonder where Spencer would be if that had happened. I feel sorry for Heidi. It's like she is a sheltered little girl that has fallen for the man of her dreams. But he is a nightmare instead. I hope she wakes up. I am thinking of not watching anymore if the two of them are going to be on. I can't help but feel for Heidi's mom. I want to see Heidi and L..C. the way it was originally intended. Heidi used to be fun. And made the show fun,. Now she is Spencer.
Poor thing. Everyone on the show should remember what LC has done for them.(Andrea! .

I would love to get my hands on this punk Spencer. I'd love to punch him in the throat

[Hmmmm..]

It's really funny to call Spencer Pratt a LOOSER ....because It's actually spelled LOSER... (unless maybe he is just wobbly)
Thanks for the brilliant insight!

Spencer and Heidi are pieces of crap! People like these 2 should never be allowed on television! They are a horrible influence on our children and a disgrace to American's in general!

[The Shrills]

I would have loved to read a piece about Jon Lovitz.

He's a talented comedian.

These douches are hot air.

[sunnysmoothe]

The reason these no name folks become household names is because people like Elizabeth Snead gossips and writes blogs about them. The media is as much to blame for their success. So stop writing about them, posting pictures of them, and gradually they become a regular folk just like anyone.

[bigger than you]

Spencer is a piece of CRAP. I can't believe that he has not been shot or beat up yet

Ya know, I was going to give you all a big piece of my mind about Spencer Pratt, but you know what Just even thinking of him is a waste of my time. He is the worst example of a young, christian, male. He is not sucessful in my eyes. I am not famous, I am not rich and I am by far a way better individual that he will even amount to. People like him make me sick. He gets my vote as biggest loser in Hollywood. And his wife would be the runner up with that vote!!! They should go move to loser island and never expose themselve to the rest of the human race ever again. Those two suck the big one!!!

Spencer is such a tool not to mention dumb as pounded sand. I think they should start a new show call “I am Spencer Pratt get me out of here” and drop his @$$ in Iraq so we all could watch Al-Qaeda cut his head off with a butter knife! Now that would be awesome. He also has the worst case of LMD "little mans disease" I have ever seen! What is he 4 foot 8? or is he even that tall? He calls himself a star my @$$, Shooting star is more like it, and like a shooting star he will quickly burn out and not be seen.
