Spencer Pratt Declares Himself ‘Prince of Bel-Air’ in Spoof Music Video

In his bid to become the next Mayor of Los Angeles, Spencer Pratt has dubbed himself the (temporary) Prince of Bel Air. 

The former Hills star made light of a recent TMZ report, which claimed that instead of the Airstream trailer Pratt suggested he was living in after his Pacific Palisades home burned down in 2025, Pratt was actually putting his feet up at the luxurious Hotel Bel-Air. 

In a spoof of Will Smith’s “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” opening theme song to the show of the same name, Pratt tells the story of how he was forced to abandon his home as he drives around Los Angeles with his Airstream attached to his pick-up truck.

“In West Los Angeles, Palisades, in my backyard is where I spent most of my days,” Pratt rhymes. “Feeding humming birds, relaxing all cool, avoiding all the bums outside of the school/When a couple politicians, who were up to no good, started making trouble in my neighborhood/I got in one little fire and my mom got scared, and she said you are moving in with [TMZ founder] Harvey Levin in Bel Air.” 

In the music video, Pratt revisits the grounds of his burned-down home, rapping, “I pulled out from my lot about 7 or 8/And I yelled to the rubble, yo home, smell ya later!” 

Walking around an under construction Los Angeles neighborhood, Pratt spray paints “They let us burn!” on a barricade wall, before pulling up to the curb of Hotel Bel-Air. Pratt adds, “I moved to my kingdom, I was finally there, to sit at my throne as the Prince of Bel-Air.”  

In an April campaign ad, Pratt showed off the luxury homes of rival political figures before showing himself standing in front of his Airstream on the grounds of where his former home sat. “This is where I live,” he declared. But TMZ reported that Pratt had been paying for a room at the five-star hotel for at least a month.

Pratt’s tongue-in-cheek response is the latest instance of the reality star not shying away from critics. His direct communication style — one which he routinely denounces California’s Democratic leaders and the “fundamentally broken” local government — has earned him praise from supporters. Meghan McCain wrote that Pratt is the “blueprint for how my generation of older millennials needs to communicate and present their ideas and campaign messaging when running for office.” 

The father of two, who is married to co-star Heidi Montag, announced his mayoral campaign in January. He has received celebrity backing from Katherine McPhee Foster, her husband David Foster, and actor James Woods. He, along with other hopefuls, will face incumbent Mayor Karen Bass in the nonpartisan primary election on June 2.
