S
he started out living The
Simple Life, though things are
anything but simple for Paris
Hilton these days. Pop star, DJ,
businesswoman and social
media icon, she’s doing it all.
There’s the music – Paris’ recent hit
B.F.A (Best Friend’s Ass) featured her old
friend Kim Kardashian – and the launch
of another perfume. But on top of that, the
38-year-old hotel heiress is heading back
to reality in the form of a documentary
on her colourful life. The YouTube show,
set to air in 2020, is a tell-all special on the
triumphs and traumas that have made
her the woman she is today – including
her recent split from fiancé Chris Zylka.
Here, the OG reality star talks about
juggling the different personas of Paris,
her dreams of becoming a mum and how
she’s learnt to tune out hate...How will your new doco differ from
your past shows?
This film focuses on my entire life.Initially dismissed as a vapid fame
monster, the businesswoman has
shown she’s far more than that!
REAL ME
It’s a lot of things that I’ve never talked
about before – the things that have
happened in my life to get me to this
point. There’s going to be a lot of very
surprising things that I’ve never shared
with anyone before. I just feel it’s the right
time in my life. I want the world to see
the real me.What do you think when you look back
at your time on the The Simple Life?
I feel very proud because there will never
be anything like The Simple Life again.
It was just so funny and so timeless. I have
eight-year-old fans who watch it now.Why did you approach Kim to appear
in the video for B.F.A.?
She was the perfect person to have in the
video. It would’ve been a crime not to
have the most infamous ass in the world
in a music video for Best Friend’s Ass!
She loved the song, she loved the whole
concept of the video and we had so
much fun together.35PARIS
