Spencer Pratt Says Leonardo DiCaprio and Jamie Foxx Back His L.A. Mayor Bid, Though They May Dispute It

Spencer Pratt is throwing out some bold names when it comes to his Los Angeles mayor campaign.

In remarks shared with Us Weekly, the reality television personality revealed that he believes two A-list Oscar winners are backing his candidacy. According to Pratt, both Leonardo DiCaprio and Jamie Foxx have expressed support for his mayoral push, though he's well aware they could refute the claim.

"Usually I don't name-drop, but I had two of my favorite people ever support me. Leonardo DiCaprio and Jamie Foxx both said, 'Please, Mr. Mayor, we want these streets safe again.' If their reps try to deny this happened, I have multiple witnesses. It was an out-of-body experience," Pratt said.

However, representatives for DiCaprio told Entertainment Weekly that the actor has "not publicly or privately endorsed any candidate."

When asked about celebrity backing, Pratt downplayed its significance to his campaign. He indicated that the endorsements he actually prioritizes come from a different set of supporters. "The only endorsements I seek, which I have, are moms in Los Angeles, animal lovers and one that I just got, the Latino Business Association, which are 800,000 Latino businesses that Mayor Bass has failed," he explained.

Despite his stated focus on grassroots support, Pratt's campaign has attracted attention from high-profile figures in entertainment. Former President Donald Trump has publicly voiced backing for the reality star, characterizing him as a "big MAGA person."

The mayoral race has also seen shifts in celebrity sentiment, with at least one Hollywood figure reconsidering a previous stance against Pratt.
