Erika Kirk Throws Her Support Behind Spencer Pratt In La'S Mayoral Showdown

Erika Kirk Rallies Behind Spencer Pratt's Ambitious Campaign

In a twist of political intrigue that could only happen in Los Angeles, Erika Kirk has officially backed The Hills alum Spencer Pratt in his audacious mayoral quest. On May 21, Kirk, the CEO of Turning Point USA, proudly voiced her support on X, praising Pratt's campaign as an "authentically American" endeavor. "Regardless of the outcome of Spencer Pratt’s race, what he’s doing is authentically American," she expressed, highlighting his outsider status and refreshing, non-traditional campaign style.

“See a problem, become a part of the solution. His campaign ads are unconventional, but that’s the point; it’s refreshing. Instead of speaking like a career politician, he’s speaking as an American who sees and deeply understands how fragile the simple things in life are when leadership fails.”

Fires and Family: The Heart of Pratt's Campaign

Pratt's campaign is deeply personal, centered around rebuilding following the 2025 Palisades Fire, which claimed his family's home with wife Heidi Montag. Kirk applauded his courage, seeing him as part of a broader movement to reclaim the political landscape for the everyday citizens. "This is what this country is all about. Citizens willing to step into the political arena, unafraid, and challenge a failing system," she noted.

Joining Kirk in this unexpected alliance is Audrina Patridge, Pratt's former co-star, who expressed her excitement for his political journey during an event at Calamigos Ranch Resort & Spa. "I’m actually excited," Patridge shared, expressing a hope that Pratt can bring much-needed change to the city.

High Stakes and High Profile Support

Currently, Pratt faces a challenging race against Democratic incumbent Mayor Karen Bass and other contenders such as L.A. City Councilwoman Nithya Raman. Despite the odds, Pratt's determination is clear – he's vowed to leave Los Angeles if he doesn't emerge victorious. "If Karen Bass gets reelected or Nithya gets elected, I will be done with trying to live in L.A.," Pratt confided in comedian Adam Carolla, emphasizing his desire to provide a better environment for his children.

Even former President Donald Trump has chimed in, offering supportive words for Pratt while acknowledging his charismatic appeal. "I’d like to see him do well. He’s a character," Trump commented, hinting at Pratt's alignment with conservative ideals.

The primary is set for June 2, and all eyes are on whether Pratt’s gamble will pay off. As the election heats up, this Hollywood-tinged political saga proves that in LA, anything can happen.
