Heidi Montag was honored to be a �feminist hero�

What�s Heidi Montag�s reaction to being hailed as a �feminist hero� in The New York Times� review of The Hills?

�I was very honored to be called a feminist hero,� Heidi tells In Touch. �It�s a big deal to be even acknowledged, let alone complimented by The New York Times by such a profound, famous TV critic.�

Her boyfriend, Spencer Pratt, was also a fan of Ginia Bellafante�s review � even though it praised Heidi for refusing to acquiesce to his demands. �Spencer was ecstatic,� says Heidi. �He�s proud of whatever I do.�

The 22-year-old aspiring singer and Heidiwood fashion designer says she considers herself a feminist (�I definitely do!� she exclaims), but was less forthcoming when asked who her own feminist heroes were. �Who are my feminist heroes?� she asked. � Um� I�ll get back to you on that one!�
