In the contested arena where celebrity culture and civic ambition intersect, former reality star Spencer Pratt — now a Los Angeles mayoral candidate displaced by wildfire — found himself mocked by late-night host Jimmy Kimmel, only to respond not with policy but with the past.

The exchange is less a political debate than a mirror held up to a media culture that has long struggled to separate the personal from the consequential.
