Taylor Lautner Stirs The Pot By Backing Spencer Pratt'S Mayoral Run

Lautner's Surprising Endorsement Causes a Stir

Twilight fans are buzzing and divided as Taylor Lautner throws a curveball into the LA mayoral race by endorsing none other than Spencer Pratt. On May 13, Spencer Pratt took to Instagram to rally Los Angeles residents, with a compelling photo of himself against the city's skyline, urging them to vote. The Hills alum boldly announced, "Our city's new golden age starts right here. VOTE TODAY!"

Lautner's endorsement was a shocker for many, especially coming from a beloved star of the Twilight saga. His comment, "let's goooooo," complete with fire emojis, lit up the internet and saw fans rushing to Threads to express their bewilderment. "Taylor Lautner is the only that surprised and disappointed me," remarked one follower.

“Taylor Lautner endorsing Spencer Pratt tells me two things: 1) I was extremely correct to always, and forever, be Team Edward 2) a lot of D-list celebrities are hard up for cash, as has become very clear from all these recent 'endorsements.'”

Spencer Pratt's Political Ambitions

Spencer Pratt's leap into the political arena first hit the scene on January 7, 2026, when he declared his candidacy for Los Angeles mayor. At the They Let Us Burn rally in Pacific Palisades, he passionately addressed the crowd about his frustrations with the handling of wildfire incidents that devastated California, including his own home.

Pratt's campaign is pitched as a mission to "expose the system" and bring transparency to the city's politics. "Business as usual is a death sentence for Los Angeles," he declared, promising to "disinfect the city with our light. L.A. is going to be camera-ready again."

Celebrity Reactions and the Road Ahead

Pratt's entry into the race has split opinions in Tinseltown. While some, like Whoopi Goldberg and his sister Stephanie, have openly criticized him, others rally behind his cause. Notables like Daphne Oz and Big Sean have voiced their support.

As the June 2 mayoral election date looms, the interplay of celebrity endorsements, political ambitions, and the drama of public opinion continues to unfold, promising more surprises in the weeks ahead.
