and of course we're supposed to believe that this wasn't all planned beforehand.

I can't believe that Spencer actually talked with the nbc executive the way that he did. I can't imagine an executive for any network accepting a personal phone call like that. That part did seem very contrived.

I really don't believe it was totally planned from the beginning, but I sure think they made sure to have back-ups. I think that first night when production realized H&S wanted to leave, they begged them to just stay the first night and that's it. I think after that first fit, THEN they knew H&S were only there until the next day, but they led us to think they agreed to come back for the duration.

Just to show my point from above...Remember as soon as Spencer woke up the next morning, he ran across the bridge for his freedom? I think he thought his secondary agreement to stay just the first night was over.

(can you tell I am stuck in the house because of bad storms today?...LOL I really should go read one of the pile of books I have bought from ebay this year......nah)

The Soup blog made me laugh, too:

"You've got to hand it to I'm a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!'s Spencer Pratt. His breathtaking ability to redefine the star hissy fit, bring it to a boil and serve it up slathered with flaming douche sauce makes for fantastic television. Especially when he's quitting the show!
Yes, he is a celebrity. But no, please don't get him out of there."

OK, well maybe I'll tune it to watch Speidi storm out. I can already hear Janice lobbing verbal grenades after them while Baldwin prays for all of their souls.

Costa, believe it or not, Sanjaya really wasn't that bad last night. I can actually tolerate him. He's very quiet and laid-back. You almost don't even know he is there.

Re: the earlier post regarding the American Red Cross. They are probably pissed because Spencer made the comment last night that they deliberately picked "large" charities to play for so the charities wouldn't miss the money if they quit the show.

On some desk in the production company, or at NBC, is the timeline of the Speidi quit/rejoin/quit/rejoin plan. Plus the assorted instructions of press releases and publicity memos.

It's probably planned all the way down to the new cast members and the dry shampoo. LOL

On our NBC Affliate they said that the charity Patti Blago is playing for has turned down her money - because they are affliated with Children's Memorial Hospital, which is part of Rod's game play by not giving them( Ie Children's Memorial) money... oh what a tangled web is wove in IL politics...

H&S - never watched the Hills, except for on The Soup - they just love the media - the whole dry shampoo thing is annoying - move on..

ROFLOL - per TMZ.com website:

Spencer Pratt made a shocking confession just before quitting "I'm A Celebrity ... Get Me Out of Here!" -- he's a total fraud.

A well-placed source who works on the Costa Rican production of the show tells TMZ just before quitting the show, Spencer screamed at producers, "If you give me a script, I'll do what you want. I'm not a reality star. I'm on 'The Hills.'"

Spencer clarified with the following: "I'm a TV producer and a character."

Spencer Pratt the character and Spencer Pratt the reality TV star could not be reached for comment.

One of Janice's many mag covers I found. She was the real deal.

Wow. That looks absolutely nothing like Janice. I would've never recognized her in a million years. Still, to me a supermodel is someone whose name becomes a household word. I don't remember ever hearing her name until she started doing reality shows.

It really makes you wonder how much of this is fake. I know most of these shows are manipulated, but with something like this where these people are taken out of their element it would be pretty impressive to keep up a fake personality while dealing with such extreme discomfort. Only a few of them are professional actors. But seeing Janice so calm and talking like she's an old pro at camping makes me wonder if they agreed beforehand that Spencer would be the lone basketcase.

My own suspicion is that the producers and the NBC chairman didn't talk H & S out of leaving this time because they read all the fury on their own forum from the viewers who couldn't stand watching them. I'm so glad they're gone (if it's true), because in my opinion they were not good TV. They held the show back with their boring negativity. Spencer bullying the women was the most interesting thing he did, but it wasn't entertaining. It was just embarrassing. I get the argument that contestants should be unlikeable, but they should still be watchable. This couple was unwatchable. Nothing original there.

Good for the Red Cross! I don't blame them for cutting ties with this show after the way they've been treated. I hope any other charity that this couple tries to use for publicity won't fall for it next time. I wonder if the new girl will represent Feed the Children since they've also been let down.

I was reading about her life and one of the reasons she was so sought after as a model was her exotic looks...which you can see in the above photo.

Hahahaha! Calling Spencer a "character" is a nice way of saying what I really think. If NBC takes those two back then either they are eejits or this entire thing was planned. Either way, NBC, please pay attention. I WILL NOT WATCH YOUR SHOW IF SPENCER AND HEIDI ARE ON IT! So if they left, kept them left!

I don't blame the Red Cross either, btw, but I have to say I think that was a throwaway choice for sure. Most celebs have a cause du jour.
