Book review: ParisHilton recounts her path from party girl to icon of 'extra' in 'Paris: The Memoir'
"Paris: The Memoir" by Paris Hilton Dubbed the"OG Influencer," club kid-turned-mogul Paris Hilton pioneered becoming"famous for being famous" in the early 2000s, a playbook since adopted by everyone from the Kardashians to Housewives and countless social media influencers.
In her 20s, her fame became mainstream with the nearly simultaneous debut of her reality show"The Simple Life," and the leak of a scandalous sex tape. Born into the family dynasty of hotel magnate Conrad Hilton, Hilton spent her childhood in a rarefied world of privilege, collecting a menagerie of animals like ferrets, gerbils and a baby goat and earning the family nickname of"Star."
Once she was released at 18, she stuck to the story concocted by her family that she'd been away at a London boarding school. She didn't open up about the abuse for 20 years, finally discussing it in her 2020 YouTube documentary"This is Paris." Since then, she's become an advocate for reform in the"troubled teen" industry, testifying before Congress about her experience.
