Reality star turned political wannabe Spencer Pratt has denied claims his bid to become Mayor of Los Angeles is being filmed for television.
The former star of The Hills is in the running for the position alongside current Mayor Karen Bass and Councilwoman Nithya Raman.
It was reported by TMZ and Deadline that the 42-year-old’s political campaign was being filmed for an unscripted reality series.
However, a spokesperson for Spencer has now issued a statement firmly denying the allegations.
The representative told The Wrap: "This is inaccurate. There is no series in production and cameras have not been following the campaign.”
The spokesperson continued: “He does not have any signed contract. No contract exists related to this because it isn't true.”
Spencer announced in January that he was going to run for Mayor.
TMZ had claimed that Spencer had signed a deal with Boardwalk Pictures, based in Los Angeles, for a series based on his political journey - which would also feature wife Heidi Montag and their two children.
The report also alleged that the series would continue if Spencer won his bid to be Mayor.
Spencer announced his bid for mayor after he and Heidi lost their home in the devastating LA wildfires early last year, and Spencer admitted he felt incredibly isolated in the weeks and months after the fires.
The reality TV star told Us Weekly: "It’s worse than ever now because I still need to use fame to rebuild what I got to. "I’d be at peace if my insurance hadn’t dropped us and I was rebuilding our house right now … I feel the most untethered to anything. The only things left are my kids and Heidi. And my parents, but they’re such a wreck that you can’t call my mom without her crying. I am in an abyss."
Spencer has vowed to overhaul the “fundamentally broken” system in Los Angeles if he gets elected as mayor.
He said: "The system in Los Angeles isn’t struggling, it’s fundamentally broken. It is a machine designed to protect the people at the top and the friends they exchange favours with while the rest of us drown in toxic smoke and ash.
"Business as usual is a death sentence for Los Angeles, and I'm done waiting for someone to take real action. That's why I am running for mayor."
