Spencer Pratt says Hollywood’s outrage machine has officially jumped the shark — this time over sugar cookies.
The reality TV lightning rod is rallying behind a Los Angeles baker who reportedly lost her home and livelihood in the devastating Palisades wildfire, only to find herself at the center of a bizarre political spat involving a member of Jimmy Kimmel’s family.
Daniela Romano, who bakes out of Vicente Foods in Brentwood, recently started selling frosted “Vote Pratt” cookies — simple sugar cookies decorated with a bright campaign-style logo supporting Pratt’s latest public persona makeover as an anti-chaos, pro-law-and-order local voice.
The cookies didn’t just fly off the shelves. They apparently triggered a full-blown Hollywood meltdown.
Among the loudest critics, according to local chatter amplified by celebrity boutique Kitson, was allegedly Carly Kimmel — the wife of Jimmy Kimmel’s brother Jonathan. Kitson claimed on social media that a “reliable source” told them Carly threatened to boycott Vicente Foods if the bakery kept selling the cookies.
In other words: a wildfire victim trying to rebuild her life gets dragged into yet another elite LA political tantrum — this time over dessert.
Romano has reportedly stayed quiet about the controversy, declining to publicly escalate the drama. Friends say she’s been focused on rebuilding after the Palisades Fire destroyed both her home and her former business operations.
Pratt, meanwhile, wasn’t exactly in a diplomatic mood. “That woman was trying to stop somebody from trying to support their family,” Pratt said while holding a box of the now-infamous cookies. “I hope they go support a fire victim that lost everything and maybe make amends and buy some of these cookies. I think that would be a good apology.”
The former “The Hills” star framed the controversy as another example of wealthy LA progressives targeting anyone who steps outside approved political groupthink. “We’re doing a lot of things, but I’ll always have time to support people that are trying to build back from nothing and that are being attacked by people that obviously don’t understand that my message is common sense,” Pratt said.
Pratt has spent recent months leaning hard into criticism of Los Angeles leadership over crime, homelessness and public safety — issues that have increasingly frustrated residents across the city, especially after repeated high-profile incidents on public transit and in family areas.
And in classic Pratt fashion, he delivered the message with all the subtlety of a TMZ camera flash. “So, if you don’t support what I’m doing then you just want drug addicts that are naked in front of kids in parks, and you want people’s arms getting hit with machetes in broad daylight on the sidewalk,” Pratt said. “So, I don’t know what’s going on with those people, but the people that are buying the cookies [have] brains that are functioning.”
Then came the sales pitch disguised as a joke. “I hear you can just eat them all day long and you don’t even gain weight,” Pratt quipped. “I hear they’re actually healthy cookies, they’re delicious.”
Apparently, plenty of Angelenos agree.
By late Friday morning, Vicente Foods reportedly told callers the latest batch had already sold out, with fresh trays not expected until later in the afternoon.
Kitson piled on with more mockery aimed at the backlash crowd, joking online that the bakery should start selling “Karen Bass cookies” so outraged critics could calm down. “We suggest you put in an order for 1,000 cookies so you can show some remorse and pass them around at the next Kimmel family function,” the boutique wrote.
As for Pratt, he seems more than happy to keep stirring the batter — and the culture war. “I couldn’t be happier to help sell cookies now while also saving the city,” he said.

Jimmy Kimmel’s sister-in-law tried to get the baker to STOP making Spencer cookies to hurt Spencer, but she didn’t succeed.
