(Scott Gries\/Getty Images)<\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n<p>Pratt, a Los Angeles native, was a student at the University of Southern California in the early 2000s when he realized the potential of the burgeoning \u201creality TV\u201d genre. So he pitched an unscripted show centered on his pal Brody Jenner, a spoiled rich kid who was constantly irritating his stepdad, Grammy-winning producer David Foster (then married to Jenner\u2019s mother, the songwriter and Elvis girlfriend Linda Thompson, who happened to be the ex-wife of Caitlyn Jenner, Brody\u2019s parent). With us so far?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPrinces of Malibu,\u201d set at Foster\u2019s $40 million estate, ran for six episodes \u2014 and Foster labeled Pratt as his stepson\u2019s \u201cweaselly friend\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=MbztBEA7eY4\" rel=\"\">in the first few minutes<\/a> of the pilot.<\/p>\n<p>Well, a <i>rumor<\/i> about a sex tape, and not his. We\u2019ll get to that in a sec.<\/p>\n<p>Being a prince of Malibu was nothing compared to \u201cThe Hills,\u201d the MTV reality hit from 2006 to 2010 that revolved around a group of 20-somethings trying to figure out life and love. The series followed some of the beautiful and dramatic high school kids we met in the hit \u201cLaguna Beach,\u201d including one of its stars, Lauren Conrad. Pratt made his grand entrance in Season 2 as the boyfriend of Heidi Montag, Conrad\u2019s best friend.<\/p>\n<p>Spencer drove a wedge between the two women as Heidi spent more time with him. Then he became public enemy No. 1 because of an explosive narrative: Lauren\u2019s belief that Heidi and Spencer started a rumor that she made a sex tape with her ex-boyfriend. While \u201cThe Hills\u201d cast has since admitted that many storylines were manipulated by producers, the hurt feelings over this situation seemed real. Lauren and Heidi\u2019s friendship imploded, leading to Lauren <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/news\/arts-and-entertainment\/wp\/2016\/08\/03\/the-hills-special-lauren-conrad-was-furious-when-producers-manipulated-that-famous-fight-scene\/?utm_term=.03e1ed3916ed\" rel=\"\">famously yelling<\/a> at Heidi, \u201cYou KNOW what you did!\u201d (Eventually, Spencer and Heidi got married and Lauren attended the wedding, which was featured in Season 5.)<\/p>\n<p>Pratt later <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcwashington.com\/local\/spencer_pratt_admits_lying_about_sex_tape_rumors_to_get_lauren_conrad_to_attend_wedding\/1876042\/\" rel=\"\">confessed<\/a> to starting the rumor, then backtracked and said his confession was a lie.
