Heidi Montag will perform at this year’s Mighty Hoopla festival in London, The Independent can reveal.

The pop singer and reality TV star, 38, has been the subject of renewed interest this year, as she and her husband Spencer Pratt received public support after losing their home in the Palisades Fire.

Fans swiftly began streaming Montag’s music, including her debut album Superficial and the track “I’ll Do It”, which became one of the top-trending songs on TikTok as the singer was urged to record new music.

Pratt shared an emotional video last month after the 2010 album hit No 1 on iTunes, 15 years after its release.

“We spent all of our money on this album, Superficial. 15 years ago, three days ago, so January 10, 2010, it came out,” he said. “We weren’t trying to be reality stars; we were like, ‘We are gonna make Heidi a pop star.’ We were a team. Every night when you thought we were watching The Hills, we were in the recording studio working with the best.”

Pratt continued: “Every dollar we made from The Hills we put into this album, Superficial. And for it to freakin’ finally get No 1 in America, 15 years after. Do you know how many times we’ve cried and how much regret we’ve had about spending all of our money and investing it and believing in Heidi’s music even though we knew it was so good, and for it to finally come out and be a f***ing hit.”

Montag, who will perform on Sunday 1 June at Mighty Hoopla, shot to fame while appearing in the reality TV show The Hills in 2006, starring in six seasons until the series ended in 2010. She and Pratt went on to star in shows including Celebrity Big Brother and Celebrity Family Feud.
