Reality star-turned-hip-hop hopeful Spencer Pratt was happy to keep his MC talents a secret - until rap sensation Asher Roth hit the charts.

The Hills star recently revealed his plans to hit the studio to record a hip-hop album under the name Great White, boasting, "First I took over TV, the tabloids and the Internet - now I'm going after the airwaves. Nothing can stop The Great White."

Pratt has reportedly hit the studio to lay down the lyrics for his first track, I'm A Celebrity, which includes the line: "Baby I get paid I've been around the world, but I'm still not finished yet... I'm in the limelight and I love it like my wife (Heidi Montag)."

And the TV personality admits he was happy to keep his rapping under wraps - but felt forced to break into the scene to show newcomer Roth how hip-hop is really done.

He says, "I've always known that I secretly am the hottest rapper in the game. But I didn't feel the urge until Asher Roth started hitting the airwaves and - no offence to Asher Roth - somebody with some real swagger needed to come into the game."
