Spencer Pratt Calls Heidi “The New Michael Jackson”

Oh yes he did. According to Us Weekly, Spencer Pratt told MTV’s The After Show that his wife Heidi Montag is the “new, modern day, 2010 Michael Jackson.” When the show’s host, Jessi Cruickshank, pointed out that MJ is dead, Spencer gestured to Heidi and said, “Yeah, but here it is, it’s living, like the holy spirit.”

(Can someone tell me how this moron became famous? I’m not one of those crazed MJ fans pouring my own tears on his walk of fame star, but I’m still a little offended. Or at least I would be, if I thought the Prattster was worth any of my feelings at all.)

Spencer continued his ridiculous (incoherent?) comparison:  ”Like, Michael Jackson’s in heaven,” he continues. “The Holy Spirit now has Michael Jackson juice, so boom! For all we know, Heidi gets possessed with Michael Jackson’s divine spirit.”

Then he took it to the next level. Just to clarify, Jessi asked, “So Heidi is the new Michael Jackson?” Spencer’s response: “Oh, way bigger.”

Heidi’s first performance of her new single “Body Language” at the Miss Universe pageant on Sunday seemed a little less MJ and and a little more BS. Britney Spears, that is. “I grew up watching Britney Spears. That’s someone I aspire to be, you know, like, career wise,” Heidi said. “I think the world is ready for the next pop star and I’m ready to be the next pop galaxy, so here we go.”
