Los Angeles mayoral candidate and reality TV star Spencer Pratt roasted Democratic opponent and city council member Nithya Raman over her fire safety motion that would effectively ban backyard barbecues under certain conditions. In the video, Pratt is seen with a large piece of meat in a barbecue grill or smoker on a deck, complete with the words, “HAPPY SMOKE 4th.”He’s also jamming to “Look What You Made Me Do” by Our Last Night, which is a rock band known for doing covers of pop songs. The song itself is a cover of Taylor Swift’s song, bearing the same name.
“COME AND TAKE IT,” Pratt’s caption said.
Raman’s motion would ban barbecues on Red Flag Warning days, which happen when there are high winds and dry conditions. It called for limits on barbecues, fire pits, and for closing all parks in the event of a warning.
Pratt is trolling the proposed restrictions, and his caption seemingly teases Raman and lawmakers to take away his barbecue.
Another council member blocked Raman’s proposal.
