In the "We've Been Used" department -- the hateable duo that quit "I'm A Celebrity ... Get Me Out of Here!" and then threatened to sue the show is coming back.
Heidi and Spencer are in a first class torture chamber (seats 1A and 1B) right now ... heading back to Costa Rica.
So the whole Al Roker feud, was a giant ruse -- we think.
Looks like they would rather deal with spiders than lose their coveted spot on the C-list.

We just got off the phone with deposed Miss California USA Carrie Prejean -- and she says the pageant was trying to whore her out to Playboy.
Prejean claims pageant honcho Keith Lewis actually asked her last month if she would take two gigs -- appearing on "I'm a Celebrity ... Get Me Out of Here!" and Playboy. Prejean says Lewis told her Playboy offered $140,000 for her to pose semi-nude. She rejected both offers.
A few minutes ago we talked to Lewis who said he was not pushing her to take either gig -- but merely passing the offers along. Lewis said Prejean had insisted they not turn anything down without running it by her.
Prejean -- who told us she was "shocked" at the news she was fired and learned about it only after we broke the story -- tells us she has been more than cooperative with pageant officials.
Prejean says, "What's behind this I think is a political debate. They don't agree with the stance that I took [on Prop 8]. Shanna [Moakler] is trying to bash me. They don't like me. From day one they wanted me out and they got what they wanted."
Prejean also told us she couldn't believe Donald Trump would say she treated people in the pageant "like s**t." For the record, Trump did tell Harvey Levin that on the phone earlier today. Prejean said if Trump really feels that way she's sorry, adding: "I've shown respect for every party involved, even when they haven't shown it back."
Prejean went on: "I was very respectful of people even when they slandered me and humiliated me. I have not once stooped down to their level."

Folks behind the scenes at "I'm a Celebrity ... Get Me Out of Here!" are going after Spencer Pratt something fierce. A source is saying...
-- Spencer and Heidi Pratt quit the show last Monday, and stayed in hotels for three days.
-- There were no critters in the "lost chamber" (an isolated room Speidi entered for the show), other than the usual bugs in Costa Rica.
-- They were indoors at all times protected from the elements, even though other cast members have been sleeping outside in daily thunderstorms.
-- They were never in any danger and they slept most of the time.
-- No one is being held against their will.
We're told Spencer is sayin it's all BS ... they were effectively tortured and he's planning on suing NBC.
Stay tuned (just the way NBC wants it!).

ITV, the company that produces "I'm a Celebrity ... Get Me Out of Here!" is taking aim at Spencer Pratt for his allegation that he and Heidi Pratt were effectively tortured by NBC, resulting in her hospitalization.
ITV Studios says Spencer's claims are "untrue," adding, "The health of the celebrity participants are of the utmost importance." ITV adds a medic and doctor are there all the time and "allegations of the celebrities being deprived of food and water are completely untrue."

Heidi Pratt was tortured by NBC to the point she was "convulsively throwing up" -- that's what some people on the set of "I'm a Celebrity ... Get Me Out of Here!" are telling TMZ.

We've learned Heidi was rushed to the hospital and diagnosed with a gastric ulcer, after being held with hubby Spencer Pratt in a dark room for a day and a night with only water, rice and beans. It was designed as punishment because they left the show. One cast member described their treatment this way: "It's the same as Guantanamo Bay."
And get this ... a cast member tells us NBC execs tried to convince Heidi to stay on the set rather than take an ambulance to a hospital for treatment. She has now left the hospital and is on meds.
We're told some of the cast members want to quit, but their passports have been taken away and they are under guard.
Paul Telegdy, NBC's Exec VP of Alternative Programming, told Ryan Seacrest about holding Heidi and Spencer in isolation as punishment, adding, "... They are now going to be examined, and their value system utterly deconstructed ... These people really are going to bare their souls."
We're told Spencer has fired his lawyer (who wanted him to stay on the show) and is now planning to sue NBC over the show.
Spencer and Heidi now want out ... for good ... but there's a problem -- they signed a contract with NBC to do the show.
NBC reps did not return our calls ... so far.
Stay tuned ...

After we got word that NBC's jungle reality show would be replacing Heidi and Spencer with "someone from 'The Hills,'" we started calling around -- and the answer we got from Audrina Patridge's manager was priceless:
"Not in a million years. Audrina is moving in a completely different direction than those two ... she's a star."

Got that? Audrina is a star.
As of now, the rumble in the jungle is the Speidi stand-ins will be Daniel Baldwin and Holly Montag -- Heidi's sister.
UPDATE: ...And here's another awesome rejection statement -- this time from Brody Jenner's camp: "No ... Brody's not that hungry for bugs or camera time."

Spencer Pratt made a shocking confession just before quitting "I'm A Celebrity ... Get Me Out of Here!" -- he's a total fraud.
A well-placed source who works on the Costa Rican production of the show tells TMZ just before quitting the show, Spencer screamed at producers, "If you give me a script, I'll do what you want. I'm not a reality star. I'm on 'The Hills.'"
Spencer clarified with the following: "I'm a TV producer and a character."
Spencer Pratt the character and Spencer Pratt the reality TV star could not be reached for comment.

Heidi and Spencer are barely celebrities, but they definitely want outta here!

A source on the production of NBC's "I'm a Celebrity ... Get Me Out of Here!" tells TMZ the reality duo is not enjoying their stay in the jungles of Costa Rica. In fact, we're told they've already quit the show -- TWICE -- but each time they had a change of heart. Oh ... and they're only on their second day of shooting.
Bitch fights with LC and Brody never looked so good.

Instead of marking the end of all decency, culture and civility, the leaked rules of the new show "I'm A Celebrity ... Get Me Out of Here!" are actually pretty positive.

The show, starring Heidi Montag, Spencer Pratt, Steven Baldwin, Janice Dickinson, and other examples of America's best and brightest, puts "celebrities" in the Costa Rican jungle and makes them survive on their own ... with only their wits, survival skills and an entire production team closely monitoring their condition to help them.
The guidelines for the show -- obtained by the NY Daily News -- ban drug use, racism, bullying and sex. That's right, no sex. Which means, from a practical perspective, no breeding. There is absolutely no way that any of these people, during the course of the show, will procreate or multiply.
And for that ... thank you, NBC.
