Paris Hilton, welcome to Call Her Daddy.
Thank you.
I am so happy we're finally doing this. It's long overdue. Congratulations. You just had a baby girl, London.
Thank you.
How are you and Carter feeling we are just so happy I just feel
like my life feels so complete she is so beautiful and it's just so cute to see Phoenix with his
little sister and I've always wanted a daughter my whole life I've always wanted to have a little
girl named London so the fact that she's here now is just everything. You kept it a secret
from the whole world and your family. I'm curious, like, how the hell did you keep it a secret? Was
there ever a moment where like the secret was almost blown? No, I'm very good at keeping secrets.
And I just feel like my life has been so public. Everything I've done has just always been so out there.
And I just really just didn't want any of that outside chatter.
I didn't want people discussing my children before they were here.
It was just, I don't know, I just wanted to have something for myself for once.
So did you, it was just you and Carter that knew?
Yeah, just Carter and I. No one knew.
It was a fun, I don't know like secret to have with each
other I guess okay well congratulations Paris you're an icon you were the queen of the 90s
you're still the queen you're the original influencer like there's truly we could do a
nine-hour interview you're like bitch get the fuck out of my house. But when I think about my audience,
I think about this like younger generation who obviously knows you, but I feel like they know
you through like certain iconic moments they see maybe in pictures, but they don't know the
backstory to things or they know you now, obviously. So I kind of want to take a little
walk down memory lane. Okay, here we go. Do you ever Google yourself? Yes. I was Googling you this morning and I'm like,
every trend, I feel like that was like huge in the early 2000s,
you were starting.
Like everything you were putting on, people were going, people were buying.
So I'm curious, if you had to pick three top trends
that were like your most iconic staples,
what would you pick from the 2000s?
Definitely my 21st birthday dress,
the Swarovski-covered Julian McDonald dress
that I've seen so many people recreate it
for their 21st birthdays or birthdays.
And that dress is just, if I was a dress,
I would be that dress.
That for sure.
I love the little skirts I used to wear, like the mini skirts.
Should be the size of a belt because life's short.
Take risks.
And the velour tracksuits.
That's why I came out with my own line.
All of these iconic things that you wore, do you archive your stuff?
A lot of it, yeah.
Do you have any of the razor flip phones left?
Yes.
The sunglasses? The sunglasses. yeah like you have like do you have any of like the razor flip phones left yes the sunglasses the sunglasses the sidekicks covered with swarovski crystals holy shit will you ever let
london use some of your archive is she gonna have to kind of like do her own thing i definitely have
been saving pieces for her like throughout my life i've always kept things for one day for
my daughter i don't want to wear some of the outfits for a little bit you don't too much what is one thing that you definitely
are like I've I've saved this I want to give this to my daughter just like different pieces that
I've got from like Dolce Gabbana Versace just like beautiful dresses that I know one day when
she goes to prom she's gonna have like these epic dresses to wear I feel so bad for all the girls at that prom
she's gonna be like oh my god she has arrived I think about your social life back then okay and
like truly when you were younger you were the like running the socialite scene obviously your last
name holds a lot of weight but like how did you get into the scene how did you get into these
clubs how did you become friends with these celebrities well before I moved to New York I was living in LA my whole life and
then I moved to New York when I was 16 and I had lived such a sheltered life before that my parents
were so strict I wasn't allowed to go out I wasn't allowed to go on dates I couldn't go to school
dances so then I moved to New York I'm living in the Waldorf Astoria. All of a sudden, my sister and I are getting invites to all these club openings, parties, premieres, these huge events.
And we're getting sent all these designer clothes. And then we met Noah Tepperberg and then sort of going to all of his clubs almost every single night.
And it all just happened that way. It's just kind of just me going out. Did you ever worry about upsetting your family of like,
I'm going to go the complete opposite way of what every maybe other heiress is doing
of acting proper and being a good Catholic girl?
My mom was so strict, but I was just such a rebel.
And I think because she was so strict, it made me rebel even more.
And I think just being an Aquarius with my ADHD
I'm just like I have a lot of energy and I just loved going out like I didn't care if my mom
be like okay you need to be home at midnight I would figure out a way to like sneak out at night
put on a wig like run down 30 flights of stairs at the Waldorf, sneak into like a cab, go downtown. I just had like this thing called club-itis where I was obsessed with clubbing.
Also, I'm thinking about like you casually just like living in a hotel.
Did that make it harder to sneak out or easier?
Harder because my parents would tell the security, they'd tell the concierge, the front desk,
like everyone who worked at the hotel was like on the lookout for me.
That's why I came up with all these disguises I would take a Barbie doll put it in my bed have like the hair sticking
out like with the pillows in case my mom checked on me at night like I just came up with like the
sneakiest ways so if my daughter London ever figures out anyways like I know every trick in
the book yeah that's so true I'm wondering like do you think you're gonna take the wondering, like, do you think you're going to take the same parenting style?
Like, do you think you will be hard on her?
Are you going to go like easy breezy?
Like, oh, have fun at the club, sweetie.
I'm going to be.
I always was upset with my mom because she was so strict.
But now that I am a mom, I can totally understand.
Like, I'm going to be so terrified when she becomes a teenager and wants to go on dates and wants to go out.
Like, just because I know how it is and just how men are and how people are so I don't want to be so
strict where she rebels too so it's really a hard thing back then I feel like wherever you went
paparazzi followed and there is I would say arguably one of the most iconic photos to this day in history is a photo you just reposted on your Instagram.
It is you, Britney Spears and Lindsay Lohan in a car.
And I'm like, I think it lives rent free in every millennial's head.
It's like it's been on T-shirts.
It's been on coffee mugs like you name it.
You've seen this photo.
What were you guys doing that night?
Where were you guys going?
Where were you?
Just fill us in on a little bit.
We were at the Beverly Hills Hotel in one of the bungalows.
And Brittany and I were there.
And these guys were just being so annoying.
And we were just so bored.
So we went into the bathroom.
I was like, all right, we're just going to jump out this window and get out of here.
And so we locked the door, jumped out the window, and then started sneaking out to the car.
Because I hate saying bye to people because then everyone's like, oh, why are you leaving?
And then it's like a whole half hour of having to say why you want to leave.
And I'm just the type that hates confrontation.
So we basically snuck out the window.
We were walking to the car and then all
of a sudden just got blasted with all this paparazzi and then Lindsay came over and then
we were all in the car together and dude I had no it was just like a normal night out like we
weren't doing anything and the media the next day like made it out to be like this huge deal like vilifying us like we're bad
people it's like we're just like running young girls like going out like everyone else does
and running away from boys we're just like irish exiting from the beverly hills hotel it just
happens to be britney spears lindsey lohan and paris hilton like no big fucking deal it's so
cool and like i can imagine you it must feel so kind of cool to see
like so many people still are obsessed with these big moments are you still close with these people
I was writing with Lindsay like two days ago I invited her to this party she's coming to LA in
a few months so we're gonna make plans to see each other the babies and then I was talking with
Brittany like three days ago as well and we were planning
a girls night she wants to come over and we just play dress up and hang out we're just it's really
fun it's cool to see like you're all in such different phases of your life now you guys have
babies and to still be able to just like have fun and like catch up I think it makes all of us in
the world like we can sleep at night knowing the girls are thriving.
Let's talk about another iconic person that is one of also the most famous people in the world,
Miss Kim Kardashian. I'm looking at Google and I'm seeing you guys like walking in again,
getting paparazzi together. And it's so crazy to see that like you guys were friends back then.
How did you guys meet? We've known each other
since we're little girls because our moms were best friends growing up our entire lives. We both
went to Buckley with each other and then just became close like 2000 something when I moved to
my house on Kings Road and a family friend of ours, Faye Resnick, was my interior designer. I was moving
everything from my one house to my other house. And she's like, Kim is amazing. She's so organized.
She's going to come and help you. And then we just became best friends. We had so much fun together,
started traveling all around the world. And she was the one who was very organized and I was the
one who was very disorganized. So we made an amazing team and we just had the best time together.
It's just cool to see now all of you again going in different directions.
Kim, what she's built, what you have built.
It's cool that back in the day we're going and drinking with these girls and partying
and now everyone kind of has built their own empires.
And I love that for the girls.
I love it.
Just to see so many of my friends and so many women building their empires and I like love that for the girls I love it just to see so many
of my friends and so many women building their empires and their businesses and yeah just girls
are taking over the world they are how did you navigate dating in your early 20s when so many
eyeballs were on you like did you even enjoy yourself it was hard to have any privacy because
from the moment I left my house till I went to bed at night there was 50 cars waiting outside with paparazzi so I had no privacy whatsoever anytime I'd be at an event
if I even spoke to a guy like all of a sudden the next day I would say that we were dating like
there's just been so many things in the media of guys that I didn't even know I maybe met once and
then the media would just make up all these stories
and just being just having to trust someone because a lot of these guys wanted that attention
so it was hard to figure out like who to actually trust yeah would you say you were the type of girl
that was like a relationship girl or like a single girly like what were you up to I feel like I loved relationships like
me being in love like that's my favorite thing but I also would get bored so easily
so I think back then I didn't even know who I was and I didn't trust anyone so it was kind of just
like I don't know and so many bad things would happen to me
people would cheat on me humiliate me and then I would have not only be humiliated then publicly
all around the world people would be talking about it so it was just really hard to let anyone in
like I had such walls around my heart that I never truly let anyone in. Yeah. If I was to ask like your sister or your best
friend, like what was it like dating Paris back then? What do you think they would say?
Like what were you like in a relationship? I was I was very loyal. It was fun. We were going out
every single night, too. So it's hard to really have a serious relationship when you're every night going to a club something's happening and then a lot of times I would just be
so over the person but again I hate confrontation so to break up with them so I would just ghost so
many people so I think that a lot of people would say that I was definitely like a heartbreaker and
a ghoster I love that you're like I really didn't want to end
relationships so it's like I'm just gonna ghost them and like what would you just like like not
answer them ever again never answer them again basically did you ever make sure that a guy
couldn't get into a club yes yes if anyone fucked with me I would tell every single club do not ever
let him in like I don't even care if I'm not even there.
Just like totally blacklist them.
Baller.
Yeah.
Like if you cheat, you basically can't go outside.
Yes. Because like you won't be able to get into even restaurants.
You started at the clubs and Paris is like,
also restaurants in LA, restaurants in New York.
Oh, wow.
That's like some power that like,
I feel like all the ladies watching are like oh I
wish I had that power to be able to do that do you think you had a type during your 20s like if you
could like if all of them were in this room was there a type happening over there Paris
I don't know I look back and like a cringe at some of these people I'm like what the hell was I
thinking why what were they doing it's just like beyond like I don't know I just
look back at some people and they're just like not good guys isn't it the worst when you're like
why did I let them say forever that they dated me yes I hate that it's just not affiliated or some
of the male models are just yeah interesting not the vibe um okay we gotta talk about the simple life during this time in
your life you get on a reality show and it's the simple life and it's with you and nicole richie
and it premieres and like it was literally the biggest thing i remember like it had like 13
million views an episode on network television on fox like it was unheard of how insane this show blew up.
Do you ever rewatch the show?
Yes.
You do.
All the time.
Tell me all your thoughts.
Wait, can you tell for anyone that's like younger
that hasn't watched it,
can you give like the premise of this reality show?
The Simple Life is basically about two best friends
who go to these little small towns
and took away our money, our credit cards,
our cell phones, and we basically live the simple life. But we have so much fun together and
constantly getting fired from every single job and just like going and just like having these
crazy adventures. It's so good. It's so good.
Tell me what you think when you rewatch it.
I just laugh so much.
I think that show is just so hilarious.
Nicole's came over a couple times
and we go into the movie theater room together
at her house or here and just watch the episodes
and just both just like laugh so hard that we're crying.
Did you enjoy filming it?
Yes. How much of the show was actually real? All of it. All of it. Especially the first season they didn't let
any of the camera people talk to us like if we'd be like what do we do now they're like no like
no one was allowed to tell us any directions nothing. Okay so the less like glamorous side
was I remember you said I think it was in your book you
said like the producers came to you and they were like play the dumb blonde like play it up like
and I think what was so interesting is like that is then like it is kind of like how America then
saw you it's like this like rich dumb blonde girl how did you handle the misconception of you back
then when everyone thought you were actually this dumb well with the simple life yeah
the producer said Nicole you'd be the troublemaker Paris you just be the dumb blonde and basically
play into what you know people would assume that we were and I would just put on that character and
I think because of what I had went through when was a teenager, it was almost like this mask or kind of like a protective shield in a way. And then when I would go and do
interviews on like the late night shows and everything, people expected me to continue being
the character because it would be weird if all of a sudden I was just myself. And then I just kind
of got like, stuck in that character almost. And it was difficult sometimes for people to have so many misconceptions and assume that I was something that I wasn't.
Yeah.
But I don't know.
I also just was like having a good time and laughing all the way to the bank at the same time.
So it was fine.
That's what I think is so fascinating is like I remember remember middle school it was like cool if the girl was dumb like it was like hot if the girl's just like
dumb yeah and I now look back at that and I'm like what I can see obviously what the producers
were doing it was so brilliant but I think for your real life did you ever start to like resent
that character not resent it but sometimes I would just be like, these people have no idea.
But something I've always loved to do is prove people wrong.
Yeah.
And I know that I've definitely done that now.
And people can see that I'm not a dumb blonde.
I'm just very good at pretending to be one.
I couldn't agree more.
I feel like in your documentary, I feel like we got to really see
like so many different sides to you. And actually, I think a lot of people were like, oh my God,
like we had no idea this whole time, like how smart this girl is, how aware she is of this
brand that she's built. And I think I remember something people were so fascinated by was like,
when you kind of talked about like the two different like voices you will use and
kind of like interchangeably like there's the high pitch and then there's the more like
chill voice and I'm curious like how do you decide when to do which voice it's something
that I've been doing for so long that I can't even like control it like when I get shy the
voice will go up higher and then when I'm just like feeling a little bit
more relaxed it's more lower but sometimes I have to tell myself like Paris just talk in your normal
voice but I just I don't know what it is it just I think just from so many years of doing it it's
just become a part of me like you did the high higher one for so long that I think that's why
in the documentary it you were more in your like normal tone and I think that's why in the documentary it you were more in your like normal
tone and I think that's why so many people were like yeah they were shocked what does your most
like authentic version of you look like me just chilling and like my tracksuit with my socks
no makeup hair pulled back puppies all over me and just being at home with my husband
and my puppies and my babies I love the specificity of the socks yeah I love socks
watch that be like the one thing that trends from this episode it's like I love socks socks are hot so yeah um okay I do want to talk to you about one thing that I think
is like was very like huge sadly in pop culture is like you have spoken about a lot of really like
traumatic sexual experiences that you've had in your life and I think so many
women have been able to connect to you even more because of how open you decided to be especially
in your documentary it was like it was incredible one of the things that I think was really like so
public was when you were 19 and you had filmed a sex tape with your current partner at the time your
boyfriend and then a few years later he decided to leak it without your permission and obviously
the concept of like revenge porn is so huge nowadays of women struggling to like have any
autonomy over their body essentially can you take me back to the moment when you found out that video
had been leaked?
Can you take me back to the moment when you found out that video had been leaked?
Like, where were you? Who were you with? How did you find out?
That was one of the most painful experiences of my life.
I was with my sister Nikki and we were in Australia and I got a call from someone on my team.
And they told me that one of the entertainment shows received a 30 second clip.
And I did not believe it.
I was like, what?
I'm like, that has to be fake.
Like, there's no way because I didn't even remember making it.
And then they sent it to me.
And just I just like felt like my whole world was ending.
Like I was in hysterics crying.
I didn't know what to do.
I didn't even want to fly back home to LA because I knew as soon as I landed, there would be so many
paparazzi and reporters waiting. And I kept changing my flight and just staying in Australia
with my sister. I didn't know what to do. They wanted me to go back to LA because The Simple
Life was about to come out. I was supposed to go on a press tour for that. I was like, there's no way I'm doing that.
I canceled everything.
And then just going back home,
I just didn't want to leave my house.
I was so depressed.
I was so humiliated.
I felt like I had let down my family,
my little brothers, my sister.
It was just, I put so much shame on on myself and now being an adult and looking back
I just realized that shame should not have been on me I was a teenage girl someone who I loved
and was with in a relationship and who I trusted this was pre-internet pre-social media I had no he promised me no one would ever see it
and it was just one of the most traumatic things I've ever experienced and looking back now today
that would all be illegal and people were so vicious and so mean, and just the whole world watching it, laughing about it,
every late-night host just talking about it, making jokes,
and it's something that will haunt me for the rest of my life,
just one night with someone who I loved and trusted.
I'm curious, like, in the moment,
because what's so frustrating about sex tapes
is what you're doing is what everyone does.
You're having sex. You decide to film it. But can you take me to like where how did you feel about it when it was being filmed?
We had been together a while and he was pressuring me and be like, oh, let's do a tape.
And I was like, no, I don't want to. And then he was like, OK, fine.
If you won't do it, I'll just call someone else and kind of like threatened me in a way like, okay, if you won't do it, then someone else is going to come here and do it.
And I was just so dumb and so like young and naive that I gave into it because I was scared that he would have someone else come over.
But now looking back, if someone would say that to me now, I'd be like, fuck you.
Like, I never want to fucking look
at you again yeah so it just makes me I don't know sad for myself that I let someone manipulate me
like that and now for the rest of my life people are going to judge me on that and assume that I'm
a slut because of one night with someone that's what's really fucked up and I feel like I've
every time any woman is like exploited in media I feel like it takes so many years for people to
have the conversation about like the slut shaming that you endured like can you talk a little bit
about like how you handled like everyone was like you I remember you wrote in your book I wrote it
down the world thinks of me as a sex symbol And I'm here for that because symbol literally means icon. But when people saw that sex tape, they didn't say icon. They said slut. And they said whore. Like when you look back and now even having like a daughter on like yourself, like how do you think that should have been handled I think that they should have looked at it in a way like
this is a teenage girl like we shouldn't even be talking about this like this person should be in
jail and the fact that people were just so mean and like thinking it's funny like it was just
it was disgusting just to have to see just what, I don't know, just misogynistic people, people just being so judgmental.
And I don't know, everyone vilifying me and then celebrating him.
Like it was just, and then for people to think that I was in on it as well.
That was the part that pissed me off the most where people thought that I was involved in this because that was the last thing that I would ever want in my life.
Like I always looked up to all these amazing women and I felt like when he did that to me, he took all that away from me and I could have never been the person who I wanted to be yeah I feel like something
about being this like yeah sex symbol this like hot woman that everyone looked at in not even just
America the world like I'm curious like how you felt about yourself and your sexuality behind the
scenes while everyone else was like getting off to you watching your sex tape talking about your body
your looks like how did you feel it just made me scared about anything that had to do with sex like
after that I was so closed off I didn't want to hook up with anyone because I was just nervous
like I would date people but I would only kiss them because I would just be nervous to do anything else and then the whole world is assuming oh she's a
sex symbol but deep down inside like I didn't even want to let anyone do anything to me
but everyone because of that tape assumed that I was like doing that every night with people
right yeah that's something that I remember I struggled at the beginning of my show was like doing that every night with people right yeah that's something that I remember I
struggled at the beginning of my show was like I remember I went through like a really weird period
with sex because I felt like I like was speaking about it so openly that then when I met guys they
thought like oh she must be like doing some crazy shit in the bedroom and it's like sure if if I
love you and we're like having a great intimate bond
but like it there was almost like a pressure I started to feel like I was putting on myself and
I'm curious like reclaiming your own sexuality like how did you handle connecting with a man
it took me a while just like people even gave me the nickname of miss blue baller and that's what
people would call me because I wouldn't do anything.
But then in the public, people assume something else. And then I kind of just,
I don't know, played into the character and like doing the Carl's Jr. commercial doing all these
really sexy shoots. So kind of like exuding and like showing this kind of sex symbol vibe but deep inside I didn't feel
that way at all yeah it's so weird like men will never understand it's like you there's a way to
like yes progress in the world through your looks and through like in moments like playing the game
but then it also doesn't like negate the fact that like you are a human being and like you are going
home at night feeling so over sexualized and it's just like there's it's a hard like dichotomy of
like wanting to be seen for who you are but also recognizing we still live in a man's world so
you're gonna play the fucking game in some moments and I think this sex tape thing I I agree with you
I think it was like it's the perfect example of like how wrong the world is
with like, why was it all about you
and how much of a slut and a whore you were
that what you had sex with your boyfriend?
It's like, why is he not like a predator at this point
for like putting something out like that?
And I think it, I don't know.
I just get frustrated when like the narrative
is still so skewed.
Like we still see it to this day.
If something comes out about a woman,
you're not being like, well, who put it out? it out well the man did it's all on the woman so I appreciate you
sharing that because I just think it's like important to like you are now a mother and like
you have built this empire and I do think it's important sometimes to talk about these things
because it reminds people like something from your past that felt like the end of the world in that moment
like it does not define you I appreciate you talking about it because I know it's it's a lot
thank god it's a different time like I feel like there's just been there's a lot of work to do but
I think there's been a lot of progress and also like I think it's really amazing that you're so
open about talking about things because that I don't know when I listen to your podcast.
That's why I was scared to do your podcast.
I'm like, oh, my God, I'm so not used to talking about sex and things.
And but you I think it's amazing how you use your voice and you really inspire others to just be open about who they are.
Thank you.
OK, we're going to play a little rapid fire.
OK.
What is a recent
purchase that you spent too much money on? Don't lie to me. At Chanel in Paris during fashion week,
but it actually wasn't my money. My husband is so sweet. He's like, I want you to have
like a pretty woman moment. I was going on a sister trip to Paris with my little sister and for her birthday
so he's like here's my credit card go and spend whatever you want and it was our 46 month
anniversary so it was just so sweet that because no guy has ever done that to me and said like
here's my card like go and Chanel and buy whatever you want so I guess that wasn't me but what did you buy everything
I bought these shoes so much jewelry so many purses sunglasses just like it was so much fun
I love you you're like uh like I didn't even I love how my question is what did you spend you're
like and it wasn't even my money ladies that is the way to do it take his card
thank you daddy have you ever been like the one that was like having to buy boyfriend shit like
were you always the one that was like the breadwinner a couple people those models man
i feel like it's it's just not attractive i just I don't know right like get your own credit card
yeah it's beyond like there's been some people I just like lose all respect for them and then
you're just like their total boss and you're just like I can't even look at you anymore
do you have that a lot where people like actually like ask you for things or money yes how do you
navigate that I hate saying no to people so
I sometimes I just give it or I ghost them Paris I was literally gonna say are you ghosting the
people it's like an aunt that's like Paris can I have this just ghost no if it's someone who's like
I feel bad for them and like they're like a nice person but then there's other people who are just
greedy who don't want to work, and they're just like...
Ghost.
Yeah.
Ghost.
Okay, what is a guaranteed way to give you the ick?
That.
Greedy bitch.
That.
And when people are really sweaty, and they come up, and they want to give you a kiss on the cheek, or it's like the Europeanan way and they go like twice or in some countries
that's three so it's like sweaty so i'm just like like you know you have sweat on your face why are
you doing this to me and that happens a lot and like you have what i can say is like afterwards
i'm like i need whoever like whatever skincare you're up to over there you don't need any sweaty
lips but like i like need all your. Can you tell us your skincare routine?
Well, it's my skincare line.
Right.
And I'm just obsessed with anything to do with skincare.
My mom taught me all about it when I was eight years old.
So she's using the serums and the eye creams. And now with all this tech, I built this living spa downstairs.
I'll show you it after.
It's like this full on spa that has all this like equipment you'd
see like in like a medical place with like huge machines and like hyperbaric chamber cryotherapy
machine like hydrafacial like these like lasers and things that like tighten your skin
I've never done any Botox I've never done a filler. I'm 100% natural.
Wait.
So do you go down there like every morning?
When I have time.
You're like, bye Carter.
Grab your coffee and be like, four hours.
Let's get into it.
I do it on the weekends.
But then like during the week, sometimes if I'm doing calls or emails or things like that, I can just like kind of lay in one of these things and kind of just multitask I'm such
a multitasker do you ever do zoom calls from like the chamber yes the chamber is amazing it looks
like a spaceship it can fit four people do you think that your friends really truly love you
or are they just coming for the spot because I'm like Paris what are you doing this yes wow okay that's amazing that's like goals okay
um what is your biggest insecurity just how shy I am I get especially like being out I'm get so
socially awkward and you have ever since like the pandemic it's like gotten worse where I'm just so
shy and I wish that I wasn't that way
like why because you think people would expect something different when they meet you
I don't know I just get really just weird I don't know I'm just very shy when it comes to
speaking with people and meeting new people and sometimes I just get so overwhelmed with so many
people coming up so I wish that I was more confident in that way
where I wouldn't feel so shy or like my cheeks get so red and I hate that you're doing great
sweetie you're doing great today when was the last time you cried last night what happened
that was a good cry I was on the plane and I just posted a video on TikTok of my little baby and just reading the comments,
just people are so sweet
and just showing him so much love
and just the things that they're saying to me
just touch me so much and it just makes me cry.
I cry like every day reading people's messages
and just reading people's messages saying like,
you inspire me, thank you for what you've done,
using your voice and just girls
and people who have been through the same thing as me and just hearing just how I touch people
like that just touches me so much I'm such a sensitive person that just reminded me like I
feel like you're someone that doesn't address drama like you're kind of like don't care don't
give a fuck and I can I ask you kind of about like your decision recently? There were people being like absolutely disgusting and awful online about your son.
And you spoke up about it.
Like, how did you decide to say something?
I feel like my mom of their instincts came out.
Like, you could say what you want about me, but this is my little innocent angel, an infant and the fact that there's people that are that sick in the head that they're gonna
go and talk like that about a little baby was just so wrong and just so hurtful and
I actually just wrote back a comment on TikTok to someone and then the press took that and then
yeah said that I made a statement but then after someone asked me and then I just said how I felt.
Yeah.
Because I just don't think it's right.
And I think it's just so cruel that people would be mean about a little baby.
It's like disturbing how like casual people think it is to just like leave comments that are so nasty on people's pages as if it won't affect you.
And I think sometimes, especially if you have a lot of followers, people feel like you don't see it but here you are sitting being like I love my fans I
read so many of their comments I am crying on the plane because they're being so sweet so obviously
you're going to see the mean ones and I agree I think when especially when it's not about you
it's like it's your platform you know people are going to like come at you but when it's about a
baby you're like what the fuck is wrong with you yeah like you have serious issues what is something people would be surprised to find in your home
that they wouldn't expect the big alpaca when you walk in wait what it's not real it's
kim and chris and chloe when phoenix was born delivered this like huge alpaca that is like seven feet tall it's the
cutest thing in the world so I have it in the front entrance next to my big like this big giraffe
that has like a chandelier coming out of it oh my god that's really cute I'll show you do you have
like a specific like love for alpacas or it was just like a random i love alpacas okay and so they
knew that and so they're like here you go wow i will say i did your photos around your house
are fabulous but like there's so many photos of you around this house that i was like i wanted
to like take a picture of everything i'm like you look amazing in all of them is carter like can we throw one up of me he has one of me and him
there's one of him painting i got for one of our anniversary or monthiversaries and it's like
the picture of our first our first kiss but our first public kiss at this christmas party we've
been dating a month yeah and we were just like making out and then Paris Jackson was like can I have your phone and took like a bunch of pictures of us that are so cute because it was
like our first like pictures because we were only dating like a few weeks so I saw like I'm gonna
like ask him to take pictures right and she took them and those are pictures I'll always cherish
so I had them painted that is so sweet wait did you own this house before carter you and your relationship
no i was living at my other house oh well so you moved in here and you said carter back up
all the photos are gonna be of me you just relax he loves it he loves it so sweet that is really
sweet actually is way better than the guy being like i want mine up there you're like oh my god
if there was a guy who had pictures like this like I do everywhere I would you were so beyond if you had ended up with the model
yeah exactly what is the craziest rumor you've ever heard about yourself
there's lots of those as well one of the craziest people once said that I was dating Michael Jackson oh which was just the most random rumor ever
so I've known him my entire life my mom and him were best friends growing up since they were 13
so he was like part of my family and then I don't know how it came out like one article
wrote one day that we were dating and that was just such a random thing because he was like my uncle so I was like what that is
probably I don't know if I'll ever be able to ask someone that question again on the show and get a
more iconic answer than oh the fact that everyone thought I was dating Michael Jackson okay I think
it's so so adorable that you are married to Carter but you guys have known each other for 15 years and you didn't start
dating until 2019 yes talk to me about that day like what made you change your mind I wasn't even
looking to date anyone I was single for a year at this point I went home to the Hamptons for
Thanksgiving and then my mom said oh I'm gonna go to my friend's house for lunch do you want to come
with me and I was like okay and I walk in and I see like this guy sitting there and he's got the biggest smile.
And then he was just so sweet.
He was with his mom and he was just like just so attentive with her.
And I feel like you can tell a lot about a man by the way he treats his mom.
Because you know that he'll be a great husband and father one day.
And he was just so different from everyone else.
Like he was just like this sweet, cute nerd.
And just so, I don't know, I was just like getting all like nervous and shy.
And we had lunch together that day.
And then we came back that night for Thanksgiving dinner.
And I was just like thinking about him all day, like Googling him him like looking him up and then seeing like he was like this brilliant businessman and
like he was someone I'd known for so long but I feel like timing is everything and I was not ready
for a nice guy back then yeah because I didn't even know who I was at this point and this was
right before my documentary was about to come out so I was on this
whole like journey of self-discovery and like learning who I was and then that night I was
having dinner and then I was like let's go outside we went outside and I just went for it and just
like started making out with him like against the tennis court like chain link fence and ever since that night that was like it
we've never spent a night apart after that it was like damn it was hot it was hot I love also that
you're saying like he wasn't like you're like what you normally went for like can you give
girls advice listening of like they're stuck in their ways they have this one type they think
it's their type like why should we sometimes venture out and go something for something different I'm just so
happy I went for someone different because someone who's not in the scene not in the industry he
doesn't care about fame doesn't care about any of that there's a total opposite of anyone that I've
ever been with and I feel like if you're dating the same type of guy and it's not working out, maybe it's good to try
something else because you never know. And now I've never been happier. I just feel like I found
my person, my other half, my home. I feel just so at peace. Before I was just always just like
wanting something else and like always looking to see like what else was out there. And I never was settled down. And with him, it's like, I just, I know that we were meant to be like, I feel like
my grandma and his dad are in heaven. And they like, talked and were like, we need to like hook
these two up, like something like I feel like it's really fate. It's amazing. How long did it take
you for him to like, to show him like the real Paris?
We I had never like really shown myself to anyone. So it was just like he came over the next night and we had a date at my house.
And he's like, I want to get to know the real Paris Hilton. And I was just so shy.
And you're like, no, I drink like a bottle of of rosé and then I was able to like be more
comfortable with him and then we just started getting closer and closer but it was yeah it
was like the first time I had really done that I don't know I was like amazing you kind of like I
guess that's kind of what yeah like how you would know is like you kind of just went right into it
and knew as opposed to like you could be talking to someone for years and you've never shown them like the fact that it
was kind of like the next night you're like all right let's start like that's amazing what qualities
does he bring out in you that you now like about yourself that you maybe didn't get to like
like exude when you were in other relationships just he makes me feel just so
safe I think before I was always just on edge I was always like oh my god this person's gonna
do this they're gonna cheat on me they're gonna do that and with him I just know that's not gonna
happen so he just makes me feel like calm like I could be myself like he lifts me up in so many ways and supports me in everything
that I want to do and he's also just he's so organized and like so smart and then he just
helps me be my best version of myself like like I've never felt just like happier more fulfilled with my business with my
personal life with just everything like we're custom made for each other when you were saying
that that you feel so safe I was like where did I see this that didn't you have like a macbook for
every single boyfriend you had yes can you explain this logic every single boyfriend you had in your life you would
get a different macbook for that period of your life yes explain this was because before my
boyfriends would get so controlling and so psychotic they'd be like I need to look through
your eye your eye cloud or eye photo thing thing and wanted to look through the albums and everything.
And if there was any picture of an ex or a guy,
they would start erasing it, screaming, going crazy,
throwing the computer at me, hitting me.
It was terrifying.
I dated so many assholes and really abusive people.
So I just had trauma.
So I was like, I need to get a new computer every time because
they're gonna go into it and I didn't want to erase all my memories yeah I think that's fucked
up when people make you erase shit it's like okay we all had a past it's okay it's like memories are
good what is a mom skill you have that people would be surprised to know about you that you're
like finding yourself like now in motherhood,
you're like, ooh, I kind of have this down,
or I'm good at this, or I like this about myself.
I'm good at bedtime lullabies.
Just like I can put him to sleep so easily just by holding him and singing Stars Are Blind.
Give me a little something right now. Go i'm gonna close my eyes i'm so
shy i can't even do it in front of you what if i don't look at you
let's sing it together
okay okay i can envision it I heard like a little like,
even though the gods are great.
That was actually good.
I did it yesterday.
Honestly, as long as it's putting him to bed, you're good.
