Al Roker - of all people - battles with Heidi and Spencer Pratt
Today show weatherman Al Roker let Twitter do his talking after a rather combative interview Monday, June, 15, with reality stars Heidi and Spencer Pratt.

“Heidi and Spencer are an interesting couple. famous for…being infamous. Bad and vacuous behavior. I think we’re at minute 11 of their 15,” Roker tweeted.
Roker’s message came minutes after he interviewed the whinny and self-important stars of “I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here” and MTV’s “The Hills.”
It was ‘on’ from the the word go with Roker asking Pratt about his goal to play villain.
“This behavior, this is not going to continue now that you are off the show,” Roker later asked. “You say villain, some people say jerk.”
“Tomato, tomato,” Spencer Pratt responded.
The couple, who was baptized on “I’m A Celebrity” by actor Stephen Baldwin, went on Ryan Seacrest’s radio show and responded to Roker’s “rudeness.”
Heidi Pratt said she ‘definitely’ didn’t appreciate the attack and advised women to be careful around Roker, described as a mean, screaming weatherman.
“I was crying afterwards because I couldn’t believe I felt personally attacked. He was yelling at me and saying ‘do you feel proud of this’,” Heidi Pratt said. “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 and mean-spirited.”
