About this listen
Paris Hilton has been in the spotlight over the past several days with multiple significant developments. The 44-year-old businesswoman recently defended her self-made status in a new interview, asserting that she built her billion-dollar media empire, 11:11 Media, entirely on her own without relying on family handouts. She emphasized her diverse business ventures, including her successful perfume line, various profitable product lines, her work as a DJ at events, and her advocacy efforts for vulnerable children and teens.
In another major story, Hilton broke her silence regarding long-circulating allegations that Ghislaine Maxwell attempted to recruit her for Jeffrey Epstein when she was nineteen years old. The claims resurfaced after a controversial photograph emerged showing Hilton standing between Donald Trump and Maxwell at the Anand Jon Fashion Show in New York on September 18, 2000. Former Maxwell acquaintance Christopher Mason claimed that Maxwell froze when she saw the young Hilton and said she would be perfect for Epstein. Hilton firmly denied any recollection of these events, stating in an interview with the Sunday Times that she doesn't remember ever meeting Maxwell. She characterized her name as clickbait being used to generate online engagement, expressing frustration at being connected to a scandal she insists she never knowingly involved herself in.
Additionally, Hilton opened up about her controversial 2004 NSFW tape in a recent interview with the Times. She called the tape painful and humiliating, revealing that her then-boyfriend Rick Salomon sold it without her consent when she was nineteen years old. Hilton described the reactions to the tape as misogynistic and noted that such a non-consensual release would be illegal under today's revenge porn laws. She explained that Salomon pressured her to make the tape, promising no one else would see it, while also threatening to leave her if she refused. Hilton expressed relief that society now recognizes the tape's non-consensual release as a serious violation, stating that public acknowledgment of how she was taken advantage of by an older man has been healing for her.
These recent developments highlight Hilton's continued efforts to reclaim her narrative and address long-standing controversies surrounding her public persona and past experiences.
