Spencer Pratt's Los Angeles mayoral race opponent, L.A. City Councilwoman Nithya Raman, blasted the Hills star for filming a campaign ad outside her home. "Filming outside my home, where I live with my young children, feels unnecessary and reckless," Raman, 44, exclusively told Us Weekly on Thursday, April 30, via a "Nithya for Mayor" campaign spokesperson. Us has reached out to Pratt for comment. Pratt released a controversial new ad on Wednesday, April 29, in which he visited the homes of two of his opponents - Raman and current Mayor Karen Bass - to contrast with his own living situation.
