Who is Paris Hilton?
Paris Hilton is an American socialite born on February 17, 1981, in New York. She is the heiress of the Hilton hotel chain, founded by her great-grandfather Conrad Hilton. Paris became known in the early 2000s as an “it girl” and was one of the first to become famous primarily for her social life and public image.
She began her career in modeling but gained worldwide notoriety through her appearances in reality TV shows, notably “The Simple Life” (2003-2007), where she starred with her friend Nicole Richie. Her public persona, often associated with a frivolous socialite image, has sparked many discussions about celebrity culture.
Beyond television, Paris Hilton has developed a personal brand that includes beauty products, perfumes, clothing lines, and even mobile games. She also pursued a music career and released an album titled “Paris” in 2006.
What is her actual net worth?
According to Forbes, her net worth is estimated to be over 300 million dollars in 2024.
Her family heritage from the Hilton hotel empire provided a significant launch pad. But instead of resting on her laurels, Paris Hilton has built her own fortune by wearing many hats.

According to her Wikipedia page, she is an entrepreneur who has founded several successful businesses, including her own perfume brand (Paris Hilton Fragrances).

Her real estate portfolio also includes a beachfront villa in Malibu in 2021, which cost 8.4 million dollars.
According to a 2023 Vogue Australia report, her latest residence is a Tuscan-style mansion in Beverly Hills with seven bedrooms and 11.5 bathrooms. It spans 14,061 square feet (about 1,306 square meters) and includes an outdoor pool, a fireplace, a back patio, arched doors, and a curved staircase. Interestingly, Hilton and her husband rented the villa for 160,000 USD per month.
