Former reality TV personality Spencer Pratt lashes out at LA Mayor Karen Bass over ‘insane, psycho’ comments
Former reality television personality-turned-Los Angeles mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt lashed out at his opponent, incumbent Mayor Karen Bass, after she accused him of exploiting the grief of Palisades Fire victims.
“It’s the most insane, psycho, diabolical thing I’ve heard in a minute – but it’s not shocking,” he told “The Will Cain Show” Monday.
Pratt’s comments follow the release of a pointed political advertisement from his campaign targeting Bass and other opponents, alleging they live in luxury homes far removed from the “mess” they have created, including homelessness and crime.
In the ad, Pratt claims to be living in a trailer after his $3.8 million Pacific Palisades home burnt down in the fire.
In response, Bass said Pratt has capitalized on the grief of Palisades Fire victims to revive his public profile after his reality television career faded.
“I feel like he’s exploiting the grief of people in the Palisades, and I think that’s reprehensible. That’s the main thing. And I think he is about his own celebrity. He’s famous now again,” she said in an interview.
Pratt fired back at the mayor, telling Fox News host Will Cain, “My ads are the truth. These politicians do not have to live the consequences of their decisions. My ad is that simple.”
LA TIMES OWNER SAYS ENDORSING KAREN BASS WAS A ‘MISTAKE’ DUE TO INCOMPETENCE
Pratt went on to level serious allegations against Mayor Bass, who won the mayor’s race by nearly 100,000 votes in 2022, including claims of obstruction of justice.
“This is the same woman that will allow 7,000 houses to burn to the ground, 12 people to burn alive, and then actively cover it up, get caught covering it up and then say that the LA Times is lying, even though they have the emails where she’s altering the after-action report, which, as far as I’m concerned, is obstruction of justice,” he said.
“It’s disgusting.”
LA MAYOR KAREN BASS ACCUSED OF DELETING TEXTS IN WAKE OF WILDFIRE DISASTER
The former reality television personality also accused Bass of purposefully letting people burn alive in the Palisades Fire to secure a million-dollar property discount for former Vice President Kamala Harris.
Harris, who recently purchased an $8.15 million home in Malibu, endorsed Bass for mayor Monday.
“Mayor Karen Bass is the leader Los Angeles needs right now,” Harris said. “She has done what so many said couldn’t be done — the first ever two-year decline in homelessness, reducing crime to levels this city hasn’t seen since the 1960s, and refusing to back down when the federal government came after our neighbors.”
KAREN BASS MEETS WITH TRUMP AT WHITE HOUSE TO PUSH FOR LA WILDFIRE RELIEF AFTER MONTHS OF CLASHES
“She has my full support for re-election,” Harris added.
“Obviously, Kamala Harris loves Karen Bass. Because of Karen Bass letting the Pacific Palisades and Malibu burn down, Kamala Harris was able to get a $2 million discount on her new house in Malibu,” Pratt alleged.
Pratt lambasted Bass as a “MAGA Karen” and “corrupt” following her recent, friendly White House visit with President Donald Trump – a figure she has historically criticized, especially during his mass-deportation campaign against Los Angeles’ immigrant population.
“She can have all the political endorsements she wants,” he said. “She can go do all the photo ops she wants with Trump in the White House. And, you know, they’re calling her MAGA Karen all over X because she was the one walking out with the MAGA teddy bear out of the White House. So, she’ll take any endorsement to keep her corrupt politician career going here.”
Fox News Digital has reached out to the mayor’s office for comment.

Shakira, Madonna and BTS co-headline first-ever World Cup Final halftime show
The world’s largest sporting event, the 2026 FIFA World Cup, is just a few weeks away, returning to North America and the United States for the first time since 1994.
FIFA announced their first ever halftime show for the World Cup Final at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey. In a post on X, featuring Elmo, Coldplay announced that the halftime show would be curated by lead singer Chris Martin and feature BTS, Madonna and Shakira. Shakira is set to release the official song of the World Cup, “Dai Dai,” later Thursday.
The show will also “raise funds for the FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund,” dedicated to “improving access to quality education and football for children around the world.”
FOX broadcasts the entire tournament, with opening matches kicking off on June 11 in Mexico. El Tri hosts South Africa in Mexico City, while South Korea takes on Croatia in Guadalajara.
Then the next day, the other two hosts play their first group stage matches. Canada plays Bosnia and Herzegovina in Toronto in Group B. Then the US Men’s National Team, coming off a rocky past few months of friendlies, plays its first match against Paraguay in Los Angeles. They then head to Seattle to play Australia on June 19, before closing out the group stage against Turkey back in LA on June 25.
Unsurprisingly, given the scale and scope of the tournament, and the stage hosting in the US offers, FIFA is pulling out all the entertainment stops.
Already, soccer’s governing body has set up an extensive list of entertainment to kick off the tournament in the host countries. An opening ceremony in Los Angeles on June 12 will feature music acts like Katy Perry, Future, Anitta, LISA, Rema and Tyla.
“This opening ceremony in Los Angeles represents the extraordinary scale of what the FIFA World Cup 2026 will become,” FIFA President Gianni Infantino said in a statement. “The lineup of artists reflects the cultural diversity of the United States and the vibrancy of its many diasporas, highlighting the nation’s rich influence on music, entertainment and pop culture, while showcasing the power of music to bring people together across the country.”
That ceremony will kick off 90 minutes before the start of the US match, and will complement two additional opening ceremonies in Canada and Mexico. The opening match in Toronto will feature performances by Alanis Morissette, Alessia Cara, Elyanna, Jessie Reyez, Michael Bublé, Nora Fatehi, Sanjoy, Vegedream and William Prince.

In Mexico, opening ceremony headliners include Alejandro Fernández, Belinda, Danny Ocean, J Balvin, Lila Downs, Los Ángeles Azules, Maná and Tyla.
Prior performers at World Cup finals include stars like Carlos Santana and Wycleaf Jean at the 2014 tournament in Brazil. Will Smith was among those who sang at the 2018 finale in Russia, and Davido, Aisha, Ozuna were part of the 2022 closing ceremony in Qatar.
Over 100 matches. 16 cities hosting in three countries. Over a month’s worth of action, culminating in a momentous finale in New Jersey. The World Cup never fails to deliver.
