    im so sick of spencer, get ur @$$ a real job!! i know that if we needed a king, i doubt he'd be on the list. he has higher chances of being king of munchkin land and even then he wnt be on the ballet! hes an embarrassment of celebrities and to the usa! there should be a fine to even say his name, someone should stop him from chnging his name before he embarrasses himself

    Spencer Pratt, Please get over yourself. You're an embarrassment to the human population. Words can not describe how vapid and undeserving of your celebrity status you are. -Chloe
