Spencer Pratt<\/strong><\/a> is furious at Virgin Mobile<\/strong> — telling TMZ, the cell company’s new celeb couple spoof “Sparah<\/strong>” is blatantly copying Speidi<\/strong> … and now he wants Virgin to start paying up for using his likeness.<\/p>\n

If you haven’t seen the commercials … Virgin Mobile’s new ad campaign is built entirely around a fake Hollywood couple called “Sparah” — a mashup of the names Spencer and Sarah — and Pratt is pissed he and Heidi have become the target of a national joke … with no paycheck to show for it.<\/p>\n

According to Spencer, Speidi’s getting ripped off — telling us, “They should being paying for using our likeness. It’s obvious they are trying to be us.”<\/p>\n

\"0527_sparah_commercial_min_player\"<\/a>Pratt doesn’t stop there — adding, he and Heidi “hate” Sparah … “It’s nuts how much [Virgin is] promoting them, when they are obviously copying us.”<\/p>\n

Attempts to reach Virgin’s celeb couple were unsuccessful — but we’re guessing … “Sparah has no comment.”<\/p>\n
