Heidi Montag to Al Roker: You Suck!

Heidi Montag and husband Spencer Pratt were put on the hot seat Monday morning when Today Show anchor Al Roker was relentless in his line of questioning. (He basically asked the couple 10x if their “real-life personalities” are all an act.)

“I was shocked at how rude he was – I was crying afterwards because I couldn’t believe I felt personally attacked,” Heidi told Ryan Seacrest. “I wanted to say to him, do you feel proud of how you’re talking to me right now? I’m just a young woman and you’re coming at me so aggressively and meanly [sic] and mean-spirited.”

Added Heidi, “I just wanted to talk about the show and my experience there and how fun it was, and he just made it a very uncomfortable and awful experience. 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.”

Watch the interview below!

An

Hopefully no one in the media will bother giving them coverage anymore. There, problem solved. They won’t have to worry about being questioned ever again.
pam

LOL….these two are such idiots!

not mature at all. Why are they “celebrities”?

ugh
Mac

Team Al Roker….
abhor these 2 famehos brrrrr
Jen

attacked by Al Roker? Give me a break… Heidi we all know how fake the hills and you are.. These two are so pathetic…
enny

I dont really like speidi, but i thought that al roker was the one acting like a jerk, he really did attack heidi
maryelle

yeah, he kept asking her the same question because some people tend to not answer the question straightforward… he just wanted a straightforward answer, but she should expect not all people that interview you are going to treat you like a princess!
jo

oh please, cry me a river!!
Ally

America likes Al Roker. Speidi is going after the wrong show and person there.
Jennifer

Who wants to bet the whole Heidi “sickness” was really her just throwing up on cue, thanks to her bulimia?
nana

It serves them right just for being ssooo stupid.
What did they expect?
suzz

Al Roker vs. The Speiders!

Roker wins hand down …lol

And thank goodness for that! go away Speiders.
Jan

I am not a Heidi fan but AL was RUDE. He and Matt are attacking WOMEN these days. Matt has been rude to many women on the show and to Kathi Lee who is a member of the cast .Last week he was red in the face with anger towards Sarah Palin as Matt defended David Letterman. I do not watch the Today Show anymore due to Matt and now Al is jumping on the let’s attack women band wagon. Is it because ABC with two women are ahead in ratings??

“how fun it was”? give me a break..they are such liars.
why are we even talking about these 2 jerks?
No, Al called them out what America feels.
Rocky

GO AL!!! THAT’S MY MAN!!! NAIL THEIR BEHINDS!!!

Here’s a BIG LIE!!! “I just wanted to talk about the show and my experience there and how fun it was.” They did nothing but complain and never pullled their weight as a team. Al knows where these two were coming from and NAILED THEM!! YOU GO AL!!!
ha

oh shut up heidi!! you’re always being attacked by people who make you famous. isn’t she tired of being a victim? she does this to herself.
Jennifer

Al Roker is a journalist with integrity, which is why he had difficulty being cordial to people who are never worthy of making the news. Heidi and Spencer just want to be famous, not decent human beings. They are walking-talking contradictions (i.e. Heidi wanting to be compared to Mother Theresa, yet she is posing for Playboy). Their behavior is like that of a screaming 2 year old – inappropriate for the sake of getting attention. If you really want to make them go away, STOP WATCHING ‘THE HILLS.’ Low ratings = Cancellation, thus no more interviews. Period.
Rocky

#17. ITAWU!!
mikey

alright… lets be real guys we all know we don’t like these two but lets be honest he did kinda attack her…. and that was kinda out of order because when you interview someone you should be un subjective… not pick a side and al roker was clearly picking a side…
Rocky

OMG! #20 — ITAWU! I have never watched this show and cannot fathom why anyone would. There must be some really brain dead people out there.
Taylor

I watched the interview this morning and I cheered when Al asked them tough, legitimate questions. It’s time Speidi were asked real questions about their antics (not the fluffy lowball questions Ryan Seacrest throws at them).
T

Why are they even on the show to begin with?

B!tch Please!!
Brandon

Speidi want to be treated like adults, and that is what Al did. Don’t come running to mommy when you get some of the stuff you dish out.
Leslie

#22. I think Al wanted an answer and felt that he wasn’t getting a truthful one. These two really need to just go away. The ‘fake’ that is Spencer just sat there and did nothing. This from a guy who says you can mess with me but not Heidi. Where were his b***s then? He’s so big and bad when HE’S attacking women — like Heidi’s Mother — but when it comes to a man, he’s lame as lame can be.
chelsea

dude i hate those two ladies, frances and whatever the other girl is.
they think they’re all that and well they arent anyone. I think Speidi’s more famous than they are!
London gal

I could not help laughing when I saw the interview. They live in this world of ‘fantasy’ and really think that an experienced journalist isn’t going to call them on their make believe lives. It quite funny watching her face expressions during this interview bit. I can now go to bed with a smile on my face that these two gits were made to look rediculous on TV.
In all fairness

Um…”how fun it was?”
Weren’t they crying “torture” a few days ago?
Didn’t Jesus save her from an ulcer or something?
And I PROMISE you, they knew they were getting Roker, not Lauer.
They thought he was going to Ann Curry them, and he didn’t.
hmm

LmAo @ her advice to women. Al Roker is like the coolest dude on tv. Speidi sucks! I’m totally on Roker’s side.
no

If they were relevant this would be news.
mimilala

Even though I highly dislike Heidi and Spencer, I agree that Al Roker was unprofessional and aggressive. Imagine if all interviewers acted like that with other people they disagreed or disliked? Out of line. There are ways and manners in which you ask the “legitimate questions,” Roker was just rude and abrasive.
jdub

OMG!!! i dont think i’v ever hated 2 people that i dont even know, this much before. i seriously wish they both would have caught some disease in costa rica. theyre so frickin ridiculous.
lala

i hate these 2 more and more everyday .. theyre the biggest jokes.
LolaSvelt

If she really was upset from that comment alone, she’d be in buckets from days on end if she read the comments on the internet! I wish she did.

I can’t believe people call Sarah Jessica Parker a horse. SJP is talented and has a great personality to boot. Heidi Montag is artifical, talentless and HORSEY. Neigh!
ihatespeidi

I luv you Al Roker! It is sickening that TV even gives these two a chance! I’m sure she was saying her heavenly prayers while she was posing for Playboy!
me

LOVE AL Roker for this!!
Those 2 are idots and I hoped, now, they go away.
Or actually, I dont even care if they go away —dont care about them at all.

and Heidi looks like a botoxed witch! Her face is so mutilated from surgeries. Nice chiclet teeth! hahahaha

Both are so gross!
Polly

You guys are so rude. Be logic with yourselves, he had attacked her. Speidi is not the problem with America, YOU ARE THE PROBLEM, you’re so stupid.
bridget

WOW… Those are two vapid, disgusting creatures… believe me.. they don’t have any sort of relationship with Jesus..
remember da truth

MIkey #22
No, you are not supposed to just be neutral and let the interviewee direct the tone. The interviewer is supposed to take control and sometimes the interviewee is asked what he/she doesn’t want to answer so you ask again, and get tough, and find a way to get them to answer properly.
There are not enough people on TV these days actually doing interviews. Instead there are people following what the PR person says to do, and it’s all run by the interviewee. That’s not how it’s supposed to work, and if you need to be “attacked” to answer normal questions that anyone would want to know about you, then instead of complaining, you need to learn how to answer, or don’t do interviews.
the other jo

@LolaSvelt: Actually it was Jeremy Clarkson who said that. What he said was that she looked like a boiled horse! Which I suppose is worse.

The reason why these two jokes consider themselves celebrities is symptomtic of today’s television shows and the intelligence of those who watch them. It seems that, these days, you don’t need intelligence, talent, looks or skill to be seen as a celebrity. You just need an audience! And these puppets will do anything, and I mean anything, to make sure that their fives minutes of fame is eked out for as long as possible.

Al Roker’s performance was a joy to watch simply because neither of these two idiots deserve to be treated with any respect at all.
B

It’s about time they got their asses handed to them.
JJ

.
I love how Al trying to get a straight answer out of this Idiot is considerd to be “attacking” by her.
.
They cant act the way they do and then expect not to be called out on it.
They have been getting away with acting like A-holes for a while now, and I think the media along with 98% of the public are sick of it!
.
They were on “The View” ALSO ($$) and the women wernt nice to them either (for good reason)
.
the other jo

If I were the mothers of either one of them I would hang my head in shame, move to Baffin Island and wear a burka for the rest of my life.
Vivien

Ha!Ha! Finally these 2 idiots were asked “real” questions that exposed them as the celebutards that they are. They really do represent everything that is wrong with celebrities these days – vanity, ego, and a sense of entitlement. Get over yourselves … you are nothing!
lostchick

Did they not expect this to happen one day? Did anyone see Whoopi with them on the view? She looked absolutley discusted.
debra

I am not a fan.. but I saw the segment and she is telling the truth. If you don’t respect them then don’t invite them on the show. Al was unprofessional. If he thought he was too good interview Spencer and Heidi then don’t.. They get attention because the media and magazine can’t keep them out of their stories.

Bad form on the Today Show.. that segment was as low class as they are… I guess it is true.. YOU ARE THE COMPANY YOU KEEP
@sillybint

These two are silly bitches. If they call that agressive, then how was Spencer being when he smacked a water bottle out of Frances’ hand? They are talentless morons who are simply famous for being rude and stupid. PRATT is the perfect name for them both. They use their faith as an excuse for their behaviour, and in turn make a mockery out of it.
roz

Al Roker is my hero.
