McPhee, 42, even serenaded the 42-year-old former star with her 76-year-old husband playing the keyboard at the event hosted in the backyard of the power couple's Brentwood mansion on Monday.

In one of the clips posted on Instagram by One America News Network anchor Alicia Summers, McPhee played off of Tina Turner hit The Best as she changed the lyrics including boasting that Pratt is 'better than Karen Bass and Nithya Raman,' who are his two main opponents in the LA mayoral . 

However, during one of the choruses, McPhee actually called Raman 'Cynthia' instead of Nithya and reacted to her mistake by saying 'I called her Cynthia' to which Pratt shrugged.

Foster and McPhee had a star-studded guest list at the 'Spencer Pratt for Mayor' fundraiser including Hollywood megaproducer Brian Grazer - who is best known for Apollo 13, A Beautiful Mind, and The Da Vinci Code - according to Vanity Fair.

The admiration seems mutual between Pratt and legendary composer Foster as the former reality star recalled in his recently released memoir - The Guy You Loved to Hate - frequently watching the musician perform while growing up as he called him the GOAT AKA greatest of all-time.

Voters are just weeks away from casting their ballots on June 2, and Pratt appears to have timed his campaign blitz just in time, with his odds more than doubling in the past month.

At a debate last week, Pratt was declared the winner over Bass and Raman by 79 percent of viewers polled by NBC, as his brash style won praise from many.

Pratt especially dominated Raman, reducing her to a 'random city council member' in a jibe at Raman that went viral on social media.

Pratt launched his campaign after becoming a vocal critic of Bass's tenure as mayor, in particular after his $3.8 million home burned down in the LA wildfires in January last year.

Pratt's chances of winning the Los Angeles mayoral race have surged a week after a much-talked-about debate performance against his woke rivals, as many celebrities have put their support behind the candidate

As of Wednesday, the market gives Pratt a 32 percent chance of capturing the mayoral office, compared to Raman's 11 percent, as Bass holds the lead with 55 percent 

Pratt's $3.8 million family home was burned in the Palisades fire in January 2025 

The aspiring politician said he would much rather face only Raman in the election without Bass.

'All the unions support Mayor Bass,' he said. 'You think it's easier to run against the incumbent mayor with all the unions, or a random city council member who has been a failure for six years?'

The star accused Bass of mismanaging the response to the fires, which went on to burn down over 11,000 other structures and cause billions in damage.

Although he registered as a Republican for the election, Pratt said his campaign is not centered on party affiliation, as he has also made fixing Los Angeles' issues with homelessness and drug use central to his candidacy.
