E! Viewers Vote To Make The Network ‘Speidi-Free’
In an election landslide of EPIC proportions, E! viewers have voted by a 94% majority to make the network a Speidi-Free Zone. Last week, E! posed the question to its viewers whether or not the network should chose to ban all news stories on the couple … and the viewers have spoken. E! announced the results yesterday:
Say goodbye to Heidi and Spencer Pratt. As far as E! is concerned, the conspicuous couple occasionally self-referred to as Speidi are so dunzo. A startling 94 percent of you elected for the Hills stars’ immediate expulsion. Consider them gone from our wheelhouse, voted off the island, fired, out and any other appropriate reality-show catchphrase. Their planned attempt at hijacking the I’m a Celebrity … Get Me Out of Here! reunion special on Wednesday? You won’t read about it here. Barring any actual news (e.g., she gets knocked up, he falls off a cliff or—heaven help us—her album goes to No. 1), consider this their very last post.
LMAOOOOOOO! I guess we can wish a hearty Peace the Spork Out to Speidi news on E! To be honest, none of this surprises me at all. While the duo may be outright geniuses at extending their 15 minutes of fame to astronomical proportions, I think they are finally starting to lose steam. Their ridiculous comments about Al Roker last week really started to put the chinks in their armor. Rather than looking like savvy reality TV stars, they looked more like spoiled brats. While I doubt the pair will go away for good after this banishment from E!, I think the couple’s ride may be soon coming to an end. I guess we shall see … I, for one, am not ready to count them out just yet. But if they continue onward with their present course of action, they prolly won’t last for much longer.

how about you follow their lead and make PITNB Speidi-free too? Please?
June 23rd, 2009 at 8:16 am
For the love of goodness, let’s do a Pink vote too! PLEASE!
only cover them if they do something incredibly newsworthy… like get hit by a bus. ;-)
June 23rd, 2009 at 8:17 am
YEAAAAA!!! I voted countless times for them to be removed!! I am so happy. I really agree with Daniel, lets boycott them here too. I love me some drama and reading about others but they are so contrived and annoying I can’t take it. They are making art into reality (the Hills into thier real fake lives)!
June 23rd, 2009 at 8:17 am
Hallelujah! Sanity is slowly being restored to society! I second Daniel’s claim. If PITNB follows suit, the world will feel right again. Speidi is a serious waste of time.
June 23rd, 2009 at 8:19 am
Can’t you make this a speidi free zone too? I’m so sick of them. This should be a mass celebrity blog thing. E! got started on the right track
June 23rd, 2009 at 8:20 am
Trent, I also cast my vote to make PITNB Speidi-free! Do it!
June 23rd, 2009 at 8:21 am
It’s not even my birthday and my wish came true!!!
June 23rd, 2009 at 8:21 am
agree @Joanena, I second that Mr. Trent.
June 23rd, 2009 at 8:21 am
I voted a couple times myself. Way to go E!. Now hopefully others will follow suit.
June 23rd, 2009 at 8:22 am
Awesome. Now if they could stop with the Jon and Kate stuff too!
June 23rd, 2009 at 8:24 am
Who are the 6% that wanted them to stay?
June 23rd, 2009 at 8:28 am
DAMN that is messed up! LOL
June 23rd, 2009 at 8:29 am
Trent, I too vote for this to be a Heidi/Spencer free zone too! I agree with you about the Al Roker thing…They do come off as spoiled assholes (I usually try to see the best in everybody). The fact that they think they are ‘bigger’ stars than they are makes me wanna vomit!
June 23rd, 2009 at 8:33 am
Wait, I’m ALL for this…but no more Speidi on the Soup? Or just E! news? And I too, cast my vote to make PITNB Speidi free too.
June 23rd, 2009 at 8:34 am
Jadedkitten, I think that Speidi (or as Chelsea Handler calls then Herpes Simplex #1 and #2 LMFAO!) themselves are that 6%.
June 23rd, 2009 at 8:36 am
LOL… YAY FOR E!
that couple is not news-worthy!
and the more attention anyone gives them – it’s like letting them win.
they thrive off attention.. and it’s pathetic.
June 23rd, 2009 at 8:45 am
PITNB should follow suit… In fact all media should. If everyone stopped reporting on them they would go away.
June 23rd, 2009 at 8:49 am
Everytime anything gets banned from anywhere it’s popularity skyrockets!! If this hadn’t of happened we wouldn’t even be talking about Spiedi today! They probably love the extra publicity! I love me some Spiedi, but I don’t think their hostile takeover of the world is as big over here in the UK so I get them in smaller, more managable, doses.
June 23rd, 2009 at 8:50 am
This is hilarious. I did like the small bit Conan did about Spencer.
He was telling the future and he said that Spencer was going to win IACGMOH after they renamed the show “I’m a Douchebag, leave me here forever.”
June 23rd, 2009 at 8:51 am
BAHAHAHA! That is sooo funny. I have to admit, I do find them entertaining, though.
June 23rd, 2009 at 8:57 am
Thank you to everyone who voted!!!! I love you all!!!!
June 23rd, 2009 at 9:03 am
im callin it now – in a month shes gunna annouce shes having a baby! its really the only way to stay in the news.
June 23rd, 2009 at 9:10 am
I’m wondering if that includes Joel McHale and the Soup?? he’ll be missing out on half of his material!
June 23rd, 2009 at 9:18 am
I VOTE for a Speidi-free PITNB zone!
June 23rd, 2009 at 9:23 am
I vote to make PITNB a Speidi free zone too!!! PLEASE Trent?!?
June 23rd, 2009 at 9:26 am
I am curious if they’ll be removed from The Soup. I love when Joel McHale rakes them over the coals, so I’d hate to see that go away. Any other part of E! though, PEACE!
June 23rd, 2009 at 9:28 am
Awesome. I too vote for PITNB to go Speidi free. I would love for E! to be Paris Hilton fee too!
June 23rd, 2009 at 9:30 am
greatest news I’ve heard today!
June 23rd, 2009 at 9:32 am
I’m with everyone else, please stop covering Speidi.
June 23rd, 2009 at 9:34 am
Only Speidi news I want is when Heidi shows up her Jumbo tits….
June 23rd, 2009 at 9:36 am
wouldn’t that be a dream come true to NEVER have to hear about them anywhere?!!
June 23rd, 2009 at 9:42 am
i think this is hilarious and totally awesome! i’m so sick of the two of them.
June 23rd, 2009 at 9:45 am
As long as Joel McHale can do a proper send off- then I’m all for it! Besides, all this Speidi nonsense has taken him away from his true favorite- Tyra. Good for you E!
June 23rd, 2009 at 10:05 am
Pink is the new Speidi-free zone!!!
June 23rd, 2009 at 10:09 am
I also vote to make PITNB Speidi-free!
I think it should be ALL mentions of Speidi, not just until there is “real” news. Who cares if she gets knocked up or Spencer falls off a cliff?
June 23rd, 2009 at 10:12 am
Love the idea! So down for not having to hear about these two d.bags….they are worthless….
June 23rd, 2009 at 10:13 am
ding-dong the witch is dead! huzza!!!!! I agree – please keep them out of all Pink gossip reporting!!!!!
June 23rd, 2009 at 10:24 am
I cast my vote for Pink! to be Speidi-Free!!!!!
June 23rd, 2009 at 10:34 am
I vote for PITNB to be speidi-free…hell I’d love a speidi free world. =]
June 23rd, 2009 at 10:41 am
Yeah, a PITNB that is Speidi-free would be lovely. Let’s make a poll please. :D
June 23rd, 2009 at 10:44 am
Chiming in- absolutely would LOVE never hearing about them on PITNB again. (Love the site otherwise!)
June 23rd, 2009 at 10:46 am
this is absolutely hillarious!! I LOVE IT!!!!! i’m totally down for not having to ever hear another word about those media whores!!!!!!
June 23rd, 2009 at 11:10 am
Just agreeing with all those who have already asked for Speidi free PITNB. Pleeeeeeeeeeze, Trent? If you need to go to talentless bore news, you’ll still have Paris!
June 23rd, 2009 at 11:25 am
No Speidi on PITNB.
June 23rd, 2009 at 12:04 pm
I too vote to make PITNB a speidi free zone as well. Please!?
June 23rd, 2009 at 12:09 pm
THANK GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
June 23rd, 2009 at 12:56 pm
Now we need to get rid of Perez.
June 23rd, 2009 at 1:00 pm
WOO-HOO!! Now all we have to do is get rid of Paris Hilton, every reality show on VH1 and we will be free.
I am so tired of reading about “celebrities” who are simply famous for being famous. But if the public didn’t want it, then they wouldn’t keep popping up.
Come on everyone lets start a celebrity free revolution!
June 23rd, 2009 at 1:03 pm
Speidi = f**king idiots
June 23rd, 2009 at 1:06 pm
I voted about 2-3 times…thank goodness it worked!
June 23rd, 2009 at 1:17 pm
I’m reminded of the last scene in the Sam Neil version of Merlin, where he defeats the dark forces of evil i.e. Morgana le Faye by turning his back on her and declaring “I forget you and your kind.”
By forgetting them, the dark forces no longer have any power over us. Perhaps Trent, its time to turn our backs on Speidi and declare that we forget them. Forever.
June 23rd, 2009 at 1:22 pm
AhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhHaaaaaaaaaaa!!!! There IS hope for the world, after all!
June 23rd, 2009 at 2:03 pm
this totally made my day!!! i do agree with everyone else here and think that PITNB should follow suite… pretty, pretty pleeeeeeeeeeeease???
:)
June 23rd, 2009 at 2:11 pm
can we please add paris to that vote!!!
June 23rd, 2009 at 2:41 pm
YESSS! and how about all blogs and media too, pretty please!
June 23rd, 2009 at 4:49 pm
Can Pink do the same as E!?
June 23rd, 2009 at 4:51 pm
I vote for PITNB to be speidi free as well! :)
June 23rd, 2009 at 5:25 pm
I vote for Speidi to STAY on PITNB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
..ok, just kidding.
June 23rd, 2009 at 6:39 pm
6% want them to stay? D’yall reckon that that was Spedi on the computer making it so?
June 23rd, 2009 at 8:59 pm
Oh thank GOD there is still some reason in this world. I daresay E! made a classy move!!!! Trent I hope you’ll heed the call and follow suit– their not being included on this blog would KILL them (sadly not literally?). I am also in full support of declaring PITNB a Hilton-free zone as well, since we’re on the subject…
June 24th, 2009 at 3:00 am
Here’s my vote for a Speidi-free PITNB!!!
June 24th, 2009 at 5:35 am
Yay!! I would love all reality “stars” to be removed from all blogs and gossip sites. And society as well! It’s like that Simpsons episode when the huge billboards were taking over, everyone stopped looking at them and they went away. It should be like that for reality twats. “Just don’t look, just don’t look!”
June 24th, 2009 at 6:56 am
Oh please..please… Can we do this here? Hopefully all other TV stations/magazines/blogging sites will follow suit. Way to go E!
June 24th, 2009 at 7:22 am
I don’t even watch E but I might now just so I’m guaranteed to not have to look at those two freaks! Screw banning them from the blog, their level of obnoxiousness constitutes a nationwide vote led by the president himself to ban them from the United States and all of its media outlets! Yessssss! It would be a dream come true!
