The Art Of The Hills

Heidi Montag has certainly been vocal about her support for Republican presidential candidate John McCain, but it turns out that "The Hills" hottie was honored that famed artist/curator Steven Corfe went to the trouble of mocking her and her chest region.

Corfe’s fellow companion in the street artist biz, Shepard Fairey , sent the election into a spin earlier this year when he brought out the iconic "Hope" portrait of Obama. The graphic instantly became a sell-out on merchandise across the world from apparel to bumper stickers to mugs to screensavers.

Corfe, on the other hand, decided to do a 2 by 3 foot ‘re-creation’ of Fairey’s popular image.

Instead of Barack's smiling face poised above "HOPE" Corfe’s rendition features Montag holding two melons in place of her breasts along with the word "GROPE" (early last year, the 22-year-old reality starlet went under the knife to have her assets augmented).

"I am so honored! When I heard about this I seriously almost cried," Montag exclaimed when the portrait was unveiled at the party, before immediately purchasing it for $2000.
