Paris Hilton Biography

Paris Hilton was born on February 17th, 1981, to Rick and Kathy Hilton,
making her the great-granddaughter of Conrad Hilton, founder of the
Hilton hotels and source of the family fortune -- estimated at $300
million. Her grandfather, Conrad "Nicky" Hilton, Jr., also brought some
notoriety to the family, as he was the first of Elizabeth Taylor's many
ex-husbands. Paris' younger sister, Nicky (born in 1983), shares the
throne as co-heiress of the Hilton empire.

Growing up in Manhattan's ritzy Waldorf-Astoria, the family's New York
home, as well as other Hilton digs in Beverly Hills and the Hamptons,
Paris didn't seem to yearn for much. Even after graduating from high
school, college didn't appeal to her. So, around the year 2000, Paris
decided to branch out and become famous.

She began to make a name for herself as a model, soon appearing in shows
for designers such as Marc Bouwer and Catherine Malandrino, and she later
completed an ad campaign for Iceberg, an Italian label. In addition,
Paris has posed for spreads in national magazines such as GQ, Vanity Fair
and FHM, and has also been profiled, along with her sister, in People
magazine.

At the same time, Paris became the center of attention because of her
relationships -- real or imagined by the paparazzi -- with some of
Hollywood's hottest young stars. In early 2000, Paris was spotted around
town with Leonardo DiCaprio. However, the press, especially the National
Enquirer, blew their casual friendship far out of proportion.
Nevertheless, she apparently dated Terminator 2's Edward Furlong for a
few months, and was later seen out and about with boxer Oscar de la Hoya.
Paris has also been linked with actor and Tommy Hilfiger model, Jason
Shaw, Sum 41 lead singer Derek Whibley, and Nick Carter of the Backstreet
Boys.

Paris, along with her younger sister Nicky, also became notorious as
socialites, gracing party after party and getting bad press for their
antics. For example, Paris has grabbed headlines by shoving ahead of
others in a washroom line, then, when upbraided for her rudeness, quipped
that she only wanted to look at herself in the mirror. She has also
danced on top of bar banquettes, gone topless for attention, and paraded
around in designer T-shirts with slogans like, "Got Blow?" Yet Paris
maintains that the bad press "sucks" and that "people are mean."

Perhaps in an effort to clean up her image, Paris has tried to make her
mark by working on more substantial projects. In 2001, she had a cameo
appearance in Ben Stiller's fashion spoof, Zoolander. Other appearances
include a role as a strung-out supermodel in the film short QIK2JDG, The
Hillz (co-starring boyfriend Jason Shaw), Wonderland, and the big-screen
adaptation of the Dr. Seuss classic, The Cat in the Hat. She also starred
in the FOX reality show, The Simple Life, based on Green Acres, and
featured Paris Hilton living on a farm. The show was such a success that
there will likely be a sequel.

On top of her burgeoning acting career, Paris has designed a high-end
collection of purses for Tokyo label Samantha Thavasa, along with her
sister Nicky. Paris has also given back; she has done charity work for
Toys for Tots. Unfortunately, her attempts to start a modeling company
and a makeup line seem to have fizzled.

Paris has also grabbed headlines thanks to a makeout session with
notorious lesbian, Ingrid Casares, and a sex tape starring Paris and ex
Rick Solomon that was released on the Net, and of course, spread like
wildfire.
