You know how Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt squandered all the millions they made from being famewhores for a couple of years and were living rent free in a beach house that Spencer’s family owned? (A full recap of their foolishness is here.) You would at least assume that they were flat broke and not deep in debt, but the truth is that they owe “hundreds of thousands in commissions” to their agents, and of course can’t get meager additional jobs because a) no one has any interest in them and b) their agents aren’t going to work for them because they never got paid. Spencer is getting desperate and is calling his agent “30 times” a day.
The former Hills star is so unpopular in Hollywood, even his agent won’t answer his calls!
A source tells the new Us Weekly — on stands now! — that Heidi Montag’s hubby, 28, still owes his agency “hundreds of thousands of dollars in commissions” from the millions he and Montag, 25, earned during their run on the MTV reality series.
The source adds that Pratt calls his agent up to 30 times a day. “They just laugh at him or pick up and hang up.”
[From US Weekly]
There’s one additional quote in the print edition that’s not here, and it just states the obvious “Spencer calls his agent daily looking for work, but he won’t book him till he pays them.”
I guess Heidi still gets work showing up to stuff and looking wasted. The last time we saw her she was looking strung out and bloated, while she was thin from admittedly starving herself just three months ago. This is what happens when these flash in the pan celebrities don’t save for a rainy day. These two are the most egregious examples, but I see Kate Gosselin, Snooki, The Jersey Shore drunks and hopefully the entire Kardashian clan following soon. They win the one shot fame lottery for do-nothings and then they make the mistake of thinking they’re famous and that the money will keep flowing in.
This was the actual cover to their book, out in 2009. Here’s a mock-worthy passage I got from the preview on Amazon: “Whether you love us, hate us, or love to hate us, there IS a recipe for infiltrating Hollywood, and we’ve got it. Sure, it’s not rocket science, but it IS a science.” Too bad the “science” wasn’t sustainable, they never paid their bills and couldn’t do basic math.

sad i’m sry but very very sad. at least they have each other. heidi could become a stripper or hooker..a hollywood hooker. yeah she should have her own strip show in las vegas or hollywood center i mean she has the boobs, the hair, the clothes and she needs the money.
in the end she already looks like a ho why not start being one and making actual money of it.

Heidi can afford an entourage. On VH1′s Famous Food, Heidi showed up with 2 bodyguards and refused to move them off one of the tables for ACTUAL PAYING customers. She said if they have to be placed anywhere else besides a table, then she will leave the restaurant immediately.
Then she had 2 overweight women as her non-paying guests for the restaurant’s trial run. IIRC, she said they were her agents or at least they worked for her in some capacity. These two women CONSTANTLY b*tched about their FREE food & made the waitress break down crying. These two women were so bad that their behaviors aggravated the show’s two “hosts” (the restaurant owners) & another contestant. Heidi didn’t show up until much later.

I was hoping these two wouldn’t appear in any media again, not even “Whatever Happened To..” Greedy trolls. And I despise Pratt’s prissy grin.

Bet they wish they had the money back that they spent on all that plastic surgery for Heidi! What a waste! Now if only all the rest of the no-talent famewhore reality losers would follow suit, I would be happy. We need more good scripted tv shows since there are so few left….

What idiots. They could’ve invested the money, saved a nest egg and be sitting pretty for life. I have no sympathy for vapid, entitled people with no common sense.

The only thing worse than lazy good for nothing losers, is stupid ones like Heidi and Spencer who get rich, spend it all and end up broke. Get a real job and start paying your bills!

Don’t most agents cut the cheque? After taking off the fee? At least that’s how talent and artist agencies work up here in Canada.

Seems they missed that crucial page from the book of MC Hammer.
Watch, they’ll “repent” their famewhoring ways and go all religulous for cash in 5,4,3,2…In God We Trust, indeed.

I have no sympathy whatever for people who go broke on a bajillion dollars a year.

Must suck for them. If they didn’t act like they were such big shots, and were likeable in any way, perhaps they wouldn’t have such a problem trying to find jobs.
I have no sympathy for people who are given millions, and piss it away on stupid shit, then try to cry about it. There are people in this country working three jobs just to pay their bills and put food on the table. My sympathy lies with them.

Bwahhaahhaa…deep breath….heehaaahhee. I feel for Heidi and shake my head in disbelief and sadness. Not for Spencer. At what point did Heidi not see that Spencer is an absolute loser and nothing good would come out of hooking up with him? Did she not listen to her family? Did she not read the plethora of media/public outpouring of dislike against him? She really must be dumb. I could see her in retail or a pole dancer and Spencer scavenging through dumpsters.

I actually don’t see this happening to the Kardashians. I hate them with an illogical passion but even I have to admit Kim K and Kourtney are pretty savvy business women and Khloe… well… she better hope her marriage to her millionaire basketball husband doesn’t fall apart.

damn, to be washed up and broke at 25. and what future does this girl have. just wait til she realizes it’s over and she has no future but to bounce from guy to guy until she’s used up.
i was thinking another option is murder/suicide.

What a pair. Oy. At least Heidi will be able to earn for another 10 years in Vegas if she stays in shape. Hope she doesn’t use those funds to keep paying for Spencer’s sorry ass.

I can’t say I see the Kardashians going down that path. Trashy as they all are, they are DAMN savvy businesswomen.

I can see it happening to the Kardashians. They may be savvy businesswomen but their whole “business” is dependent on their “fame” which is dependent on the whims of the American people. When the public gets bored with them, which they will and probably soon, the money will dry up no matter how good they are with it.

This! I work two jobs. They can suck it. The word douche does not adequately convey the douchiness of these two.

No you not Sara and mollyb, I agree with you’re take – that fake ass trashy faux wedding was milked for all its worth stunts will only keep them in the news for so long as they are talentless.

How ironic, Heidi gets the body of a porn star to whore herself out and she can’t even do that. I definitely have a case of Schadenfreude (delight in other’s misfortune) especially since it’s so well deserved.

Fascinating. Cant shake the impression we’re looking at the missing link… Like they’ve rented standup caricatures to Represent. Spooky

This would never happen to the Kartrashians because hate or love their mum, she’s a very good manager but this could happen to the cast of Jersey Shore.

They look so much like whores for the camera. This is so what they deserve. Alienating yourself from your family. Spencer called Heidi’s mom a Vagina, what a poor excuse for a man. I really have no sympathy for these twats!

This is terribly sad. They were so young when they started that it’s not surprising. I really hope they get their act together some how and give up on trying to ever get any more attention. If they had been older I would feel differently but they went into this much too naive and unsophisticated.

@Nicola (#16)…Legitimate talent agents do cut the checks, after deducting their piece.
Which would suggest Speidi has crappy representation. No reputable agency would allow them to behave so badly. They’re a special brand of odious.
I hope their backdoor agents are the type to send a goon or 2 to take back a cosmetic procedure or 2. Her plastic surgeon should drive his car over a cliff and — oh, wait.

Broke? No Job? Well duh. These people went too far..they shoved themselves onto people and the media. They became a farce, a spectacle an joke for everyone. Karma’s a bitch guys. Get a job…I’m sure some grocery store is looking for baggers.
