After the Palisades fire burned their house down, Celebrity Big Brother UK and The Hills: New Beginnings. Not everything in their lives has been sunshine and rainbows, though. The wildfires that are sweeping across Southern California have been devastating for local residents, both celebrities and non-celebrities alike.

The Hills stars Heidi Montag found renewed success in the music industry amid tragedy in her family.

Understandably, the reality TV stars have been heartbroken ever since the fires took away their home. Spencer took to TikTok to plead with his followers to help him and his wife earn some money during this devastating time. "Please stream any of [Heidi's] music on any platforms it will make a huge difference," he said. Their fans showed up big time for the couple, as Heidi's album Superficial soared to the top of the iTunes chart.

Spencer expressed how grateful they were for the career success amid the big milestone, exclaiming, "Popstar Heidi Montag No. 1 on iTunes America," before bringing some levity to the situation by adding, "Who needs a house, who needs clothes, who needs anything but this level of clout, pop, superstardom?" He continued on to say that their children will be able to brag that that their mother spent time at No. 1 on iTunes in the United States. As seen in the background of Spencer's Instagram video, Heidi's album Superficial even toppled Bad Bunny's brand-new album DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS.

Amazingly, Spencer isn't stopping there. He also wants songs from Superficial to get "radio play," which will help the album get onto the Billboard charts, "which is the ultimate goal 'cause then it's like, that's a wrap, Heidi is the biggest superstar in the world," according to The Hills alum. He wants people who own "a radio station or knows a radio station" to help make it happen.

What Heidi Montag’s New Career Success Means Amid Wildfires

Heidi Might Revive Her Music Career

What makes the success of Heidi's album on the iTunes chart so spectacular is that Superficial isn't even a new album. It was originally released 15 years ago this month. It's quite remarkable that Spencer's pleas for help not only worked but also managed to get Superficial to rise above Bad Bunny's new album.

The music industry has changed quite a bit since 2010, especially with streaming services being the prevalent way of consuming music now. Back when Superficial first came out, it was considered a failure but has had a few revival moments in recent years, including songs going viral on TikTok and now the album's success on iTunes following Spencer's video. With her latest career achievement, it's possible The Hills alum might feel inspired to record a new album.
