Isn't that a bit controlling?
I would never tell Heidi what to do. I would never make any decisions where Heidi is not 100 percent in charge. Are you really trying to think Heidi is so crazy that she is brainwashed? She's in love, I'm in love, we are the happiest we've ever been. I would have married Heidi the second I realized who this girl was. She was born and raised in Crested Butte, Colorado. She can't be tarnished or corrupted like you can in L.A. or New York, she is a pure soul. She is an angel, and I'm honored to be with her. People don't even know!
It's so much cooler to have people come up to me and be like, "Spencer Pratt!" and know my name, than to be Orlando Bloom, who's famous for being some pirate

Easy, tiger. So Heidi can really sing?
Like a Mouseketeer on steroids! She was made for entertaining. She was walking around in high heels at two years old doing dances. I would never call Spencer Pratt a star, but she is, because she shines. That is the definition of star—she pops out from the universe.

It takes a star to refer to themselves in the third person. You seem to really want your name out there.
Like I said, I would do reality TV forever. It's so much cooler to have people come up to me and be like, "Spencer Pratt!" and know my name, than to be Orlando Bloom, who's famous for being some pirate.

Do a lot of people approach you in the clubs?
I'll be honest, I haven't been out to the clubs in about a year. I stopped going as soon as I stepped up my business. A president of a major talent agency that I play squash with every day gave me a quote: "Spencer, I know you want to be the biggest and the best. And nobody in the clubs is the biggest and the best. People are either on the squash court at night or they are in bed and get up at 4:30." And that's when I stopped going, and everyone was all, oh, Spencer can't get into the clubs! Please, I know every promoter in town.

But you recently lost your business partner and David Foster's stepson, Brody Jenner, to a friend breakup.
Brody and I went our separate ways because I don't think Brody has loyalty, and that's one thing I'm so big on, integrity and loyalty. And there are things he would do that I would never, over my dead body, do to my friends, let alone business partners or clients.

But you did go through a lot together, including an unflattering Details profile and subsequent fight with Joel Madden. [In the piece, Pratt called Madden's girlfriend, Nicole Richie, a "skinny bitch."] Doesn't that count for anything?
I think that stuff is so hilarious, because the editor/writer of the piece came out there to just sniper Brody. And that quote about Nicole Richie being "a skinny bitch"—he was misquoted. That editor was just trying to get his name out there and get out the big piece and get his little writer chips when it comes down to it. But there was no fallout, Brody didn't care and I didn't either. Joel is just Nicole's new baby daddy, and the fact is, in pop culture, it's middle school, and if your girlfriend is sad because some dude said something mean, you gotta go show how tough you are with your tattoos and make a scene. It's all part of the game.

Speaking of which, it got pretty middle school with the Lauren Conrad "beef curtains" tirade you posted on your blog.
If you start it with me, I play back. But if I saw Lauren right now I'd say, hey, wassup, you know? This beef is nothing—real beef is if you harm my family or friends. Bad things were said, and you can't leave those unanswered. And maybe I got emotional because I am in love with Heidi and these were harsh comments relating to the sweetest person ever who isn't brainwashed and is totally normal.

Don't you worry that your fights today will affect your future?
Well, I definitely want to go into politics later in my life. I plan to be governor at least, and president if possible. But if people look back on the show, I'll say, who were you when you were 23 years old? Don't tell me you didn't go to the nightclub and get in fights with your girlfriend and throw paint on the wall. It's not going to affect my politics and things I want to change. It's going to be about who I want to be and not who I was when I was 20.

So live it up now.
Definitely. I just am so blessed. I've never been very religious and now I'm like, if there is a God, I love God. I know there is something out there because I am seriously the happiest person on earth.
