Crested Butte reality star Heidi Montag (“The Hills”) released her single, “Higher,” and her homemade video shot by bad-boy boyfriend Spencer Pratt — and the news ain’t good.
The cheesy video is all over the Web — along with some parodies of it. And the comments were so bad, reports Us Weekly, that Montag “cried herself to sleep” when she read them.
chimed in: “Usually, the sight of a bikini-clad sexy blond writhing around in the wet sand is hot . . . somehow, Heidi Montag makes it . . . hilarious.”
Others called it “pathetic.”
, of course, has video of Pratt shooting the video of Montag. They are moving around the beach; Pratt is carrying a boom box in a classy touch.
“I just couldn’t understand why people I didn’t even know felt the need to be so cruel and hurtful toward me,” Montag told Us. “I’m just a 21-year-old from a small town in Colorado trying to follow her dreams.”
One good note — the single shot to No. 7 on iTunes’ Top 10 pop chart.
Be mine.
Pete Coors and Sharon Magness Blake have hooked up to host a Valentine’s Day party for the family. Yours, mine and theirs.
Tonight, they welcome you all to the Hearts of All-Ages Ball. Starting early at 5:30 p.m. at the Seawell Ballroom, the kid-friendly affair will benefit the University of Colorado Hospital.
Blake’s horse, the famous Thunder, will greet the kids outside. Inside, it’ll be games and dancing and kids food (sliders, hot dogs, mac & cheese).
“It’s like having a wedding,” says Coors. That means daughters dancing on Dad’s shoes. And a lot of running around.
Says Coors daughter-in-law Meredith Coors: “It’s so expensive to get a babysitter. It’s so expensive to go out that night. Why not do this? And it’s tax-deductible.”
It’s $150 each — or $400 for a family pack. Gov. Bill Ritter and Mayor John Hickenlooper are down to attend with any kids that’ll be seen with them. Last-minute tix at 720-848-7802.
