Paris Hilton, once known for her party girl ways and scandalous fashion, has always held a reputation for being a rich, spoiled heiress, earning her living by essentially doing nothing.
But what if I told you there's more to Paris than meets the eye? That she's actually a charming, business savvy woman that you might even admire?
The queen of the 2000s is more than just the girl that coined, "That's hot." Here are 13 facts about the heiress that'll surely change your opinion on her.
Okay, okay. I know this is a lot to begin with, but from this inheritance, she created a business empire that includes stores, perfumes, beach clubs, and more, all by the tender age of 30!
Paris revealed that she created her character for the show."When I was developing the character, I just was like, 'This is your voice for the show, do it all the time.’"
It would be a major surprise if you ever caught the heiress in anything but heels, because she has said, ""Okay, I admit it—I desperately hate one thing about my body: I have size 11 feet.Forget ever seeing me in ballet slippers or tennis shoes; I’d look like I was wearing canoes."
She also won a Razzie for the same role, so it's safe to say that fans were torn when it came to her performance in the film.
I'm just going to assume her cheer went something like, "Gimme an H! Gimme an O! Gimme a T! What does that spell?!"
Her hourly rate is $347,000. Wow. Currently, she's touring the world and has a summer residence in Ibiza. That's not a bad gig, Ms. Hilton. Not bad at all.
Paris's signature line is also registered as a trademark for all the products she's involved in, like clothing, electronic devices, and alcohol.
The premiere of The Simple Life had 13 million viewers — that's more than the highest ratings of The Hills and Keeping Up with the Kardashians combined!
Are you even surprised? Paris finds passion in many things, including fashion and her dogs. So naturally, she put the two together to make even more money!
A lot's changed since then! Paris shared, “Nowadays, I feel like it’s so easy becoming famous, anybody with a phone can do it.”
In her library, she has Nutrition, Pilates, Poker, and The Bible For Dummies. She may not actually be a dummy IRL, but she never fails to stay on brand!
She has properties planned for Dubai, New York, and Las Vegas. This year, she'll be releasing a book entailing how to be a businesswoman and build your own empire.
We all know about Nicky Hilton, but Paris is actually the oldest of four children! She also has two younger brothers, Barron Nicholas Hilton and Conrad Hughes Hilton.
She has said, “I could do VR for hours; it’s so sick. When you put it on, it’s like you’re in another world. And when you take it off, it’s weird to be back in reality.”
Some of her furry friends' names include Diamond Baby, Princess Paris Jr., Marilyn Monroe, Prince, and Harajuku Bitch.
The line was called The Paris Hilton Creativity Collection, and included scrapbooking accessories and albums to add a little glam to your memories.
To top that romantic gesture, Chris proposed to Paris in Aspen on top of a mountain with a $2 million ring.
Did someone say #RelationshipGoals?
What hasn't Paris Hilton done at this point? In 2004, she released her book Confessions of an Heiress, which became a New York Times Best Seller.
I think we've all underestimated Paris for way too long. It's time to give her the recognition she deserves. Loves it.
