The Prattfall: You Decided—E!’s Officially Speidi-Free

Speidi Free Graphic, Heidi Montag, Spencer Pratt, Heidi Pratt

Say goodbye to Heidi and Spencer Pratt. As far as E! is concerned, the conspicuous couple occasionally self-referred to as Speidi are so dunzo.

A startling 94 percent of you elected for the Hills stars' immediate expulsion. Consider them gone from our wheelhouse, voted off the island, fired, out and any other appropriate reality-show catchphrase.

Their planned attempt at hijacking the I'm a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! reunion special on Wednesday? You won't read about it here. Barring any actual news (e.g., she gets knocked up, he falls off a cliff or—heaven help us—her album goes to No. 1), consider this their very last post.

Time to Be Speidi-Free? Find Out Tonight on E!

We asked a simple question: Have you had enough Spencer and Heidi Pratt?

And you responded. Oh, did you.

You voted with such fervor and enthusiasm that you very nearly overwhelmed our servers. You posted comments—nearly 4,000 of them—filled with passion, poetry and some strongly worded opinions (and salty language) about the reality-show couple known as Speidi.

You came through, and now it's time to get the results. Tune in tonight to E! News at 7 p.m. (6 p.m. CT) and find out what happened.

Will they eke out a surprise win? Or go down to defeat in a landslide? Will Spencer find some way to try to spin the outcome to their advantage?

In short, the wait is over. Don't miss the exciting conclusion tonight. Only on E!

Is Selling a Speidi-Mocking T-Shirt Free Speech?

If I try to profit from a celeb's image by, say, selling T-shirts advocating "Paris Gave Me Speidi," could I be sued?
—the_wackness, via Twitter

See, I don't even know what that phrase means.

But your answer is this: If you actually made that T-shirt, and Speidi wanted to sue, it could, and it would probably win. (And the "it" is not a misprint.)

The reasoning behind that statement is generally referred to by lawyers as "right of publicity," and if Speidi loves anything more than itself, it's publicity...

Holly Montag might have only been on I'm a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! for a few weeks, but she left quite an impression for her special friendship with former American Idol contestant Sanjaya Malakar.

But before we get to that, Heidi Pratt's little sister, who got voted out of the jungle last night and talked to reporters this morning, dished on her big sis' upcoming Playboy shoot...

Rise 'n' Shine: Taylor Swift & T-Pain Tell Thug Story

•  You already knew about the Taylor Swift-T-Pain collaboration, but you ain't seen nothin' till you've watched T-Swizzle and T-Pizzle tell their "Thug Story." The country starlet may have swept up a pair of CMT awards last night, but she's really "so gangster you can find [her] baking cookies at night."

•  Conan O'Brien and Lauren Conrad teach us an important lesson: babies can, in fact, ricochet.

•  Blake Lively's boobs are better than Barbie's. That might be the only physical difference between the two.

•  Heidi Pratt asked, "What would Jesus do if posing for Playboy?" and didn't get a response, so Kim Kardashian came to the rescue.

•  We hate to say it, but Jason Biggs is, um, living up to his name.

•  Dear Readers: Instead of sending you to see Gene Simmons' urinal cakes, here's Penélope Cruz's mug on a mug. Oh. Oops. Love, Rise 'n' Shine

Al Roker Sorry, Speidi Forgives…Sorta

Today Show, Al Roker, Heidi Montag, Spencer Pratt NBC

As Speidi lightning continues to strike on Al Roker, the Today show icon is maintaining his sense of humor.

During a recap on this morning's episode, Meredith Vieira showed a clip of yesterday's much-discussed interview with Spencer and Heidi Pratt. When Roker asked if it looked like an attack, as they claim, the hostess pointed out that what she showed was only a small segment.

"I kept going, then I hit them with Mace and tied them up," he joked.

"Spencer said, 'He's lucky I was saved by Jesus, because a couple of weeks ago I probably would have ripped his head off for talking to my wife like that,' " Viera read from the transcript before asking Roker, "Are you proud?"

"Yes, I am," Roker replied. "I believe I asked what a lot of people wanted to know and, if he had tried to come across, I would have dumped him like a bag of dirt."

The Hills stars, for their part, claim to have forgiven the weather guru…but not before attempting to insult him.

When Reality TV Attacks: Can Celebs Like Speidi Sue?

Can Heidi sue the producers of I'm a Celebrity for all she's been through?
—SpiediLuv, N.C.

All she's been through? You mean like not being able to see what kind of shampoo she's using out in the jungle? Nooky deprivation? Honey, please. Even if Heidi Pratt had suffered a full-on nervous breakdown after seeing that a mysterious personage had removed her shampoo label, show producers probably would have no obligation to pay the bills.

"Reality show talent agreements are very extensive and the participants are very clear of the producers' expectations," says Tracey Baker-Simmons, a producer of the reality show Being Bobby Brown and the current BET show Welcome to Dreamland. "Most agreements are created to protect the producer from lawsuits and any other liabilities. Of course, if anything was to physically happen to the person, the producers would immediately provide medical attention, but they are legally covered against any liabilities."

OK, fine. But what if Heidi contracted some sort of horrible parasite (other than her husband)? Or what if she actually died during the course of filming? You may not believe this...

Heidi Pratt: Al Roker Attacked Me!

Today's Speidi forecast: cloudy with a chance of mudslinging.

Heidi and Spencer Pratt made an appearance on the Today show this morning and received a grilling by grillmaster Al Roker.

Needless to say, the Hills diva was none too pleased with the line of questioning, and responded to it on Ryan Seacrest's radio show using fightin' words that mirrored the wavering torture accusations from their ill-fated appearance on I'm a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!

"To be honest, I would never be interviewed by that man again...I really would advise women especially to be careful around him, because I feel like he definitely came and attacked me, and I did not appreciate that at all," groused Heidi.

Spencer took a more passive-aggressive approach to his feelings about the segment.

"Torture," Schmorture: No Speidi Bounce

No wonder Guantanamo Bay's being closed. The demos for torture aren't all that hot.

Monday's I'm a CelebrityGet Me Outta Here!, featuring the "torture" of Most Awful Celeb Spencer Pratt and wife Heidi, averaged 5.2 million die-hards, per preliminary Nielsen estimates, about the same number the show scored last Thursday, prior to a weekend of high drama involving a Heidi hospitalization, and copious finger-pointing

Among the big four networks from 8 to 10 p.m., the NBC show ran last in viewers and beat out only Fox's reruns among all-important adults 18-49.

I'm a Celebrity… begins its post-Pratts life Wednesday.

Reborn Speidi Welcomed Back to Celebrity Fold, but Heidi's Tummy Takes Them Out

Well, minus the emergency hospitalization, the lawsuit threats and errant talk of torture...the big conundrum turned into a whole lot of nothing.

Heidi and Spencer Pratt were pretty much unanimously welcomed back into the fold on Monday's two-hour I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! after emerging seemingly unscathed from a night spent in the Lost Chamber.

"No surrender, no retreat," Spencer could be heard screaming as the two settled down for a long summer's nap.

"The only way we got through was praying, and Jesus delivered us," Heidi said afterward.

But Speidi and the raging case of faith they returned to camp with didn't win over everybody.

"I don't believe him for a second," newcomer Daniel Baldwin said of Spencer. "This is the wolf in sheep's clothing."

Even Stephen Baldwin, a born-again Christian himself, thought Spencer was exhibiting a "spiritual hemorrhoid" in his zeal.

Heidi Pratt: Out of Hospital, Denies Being Tortured

More from Marc Malkin

Heidi and Spencer Pratt are not being tortured by the producers of I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!

"There have been many reports that surfaced over the weekend regarding Spencer and Heidi Pratt," their rep said in a statement released this afternoon. "Many of these reports are false and inaccurate, including any reports of 'torture' on the show."

The rep confirmed that Heidi had been taken to a hospital on Saturday "because she was not feeling well. She has been released...and is doing well." There's still no official word on exactly what was ailing her.

The newlyweds remain in Costa Rica. "She's out, but she has to go back for more tests and treatments," a source told me.

NBC has yet to comment on allegations that the show's producers had locked Heidi away for three days without food or water before she was rushed to a local hospital.

While Spencer's sister, Stephanie, claims the couple was horrifically mistreated (she was the one who initially tweeted the torture allegation), a show insider says the accusations are grossly incorrect...
