Overview

• At the American Music Awards on May 26, Heidi Montag debuted a chin-length blonde bob paired with a blue bedazzled ensemble by The Blonds.
• The wig triggered a flurry of online reactions, with some fans comparing it to a drag-queen style or a budget find from Party City.
• Following the backlash, Spencer Pratt took to TikTok and Instagram to defend the look, noting their limited wig budget and thanking followers for the attention.
• Pratt urged critics to pre-order Montag’s upcoming album 'Heidiwood', saying increased sales would allow them to afford more high-end wigs in the future.
• Montag said she chose the wig to “switch it up,” called her blonde-bob persona “H Star,” and hinted that her long hair would return like “magic.”
