Paris Hilton, born with a ‘silver spoon’, is a multi-millionaire heiress of the Hilton Group of Hotels. She is also a media-notable, jet setter, actress, model, party-goer, and writer. She might have seen only the ‘greener’ view of the grass ever since she was a little girl, but life did take her on its heritage of twists, turns, loops, and downfalls throughout her interesting yet questionable career. The acting was always her ‘first love’ and she went on to star in a number of forgettable but notable films including, ‘House of Wax’, ‘The Bling Ring’, ‘Zoolander’, ‘Wonderland’ and ‘The Hottie and the Nottie’.
She is also the owner of a fashion line, a perfume line, a night-life line, and her own records group, ‘Heiress Records’. Her life was all delicious- sailing, dotted with a number of relationships, music, partying, and opulence. However, one scandalous s*x tape titled, ‘One Night in Paris’, shoved her and she soon became the pet of the paparazzi; both, good and bad. Though in today’s circumstances, her acting skills may seem a little old-fashioned, she has hit it big with her entrepreneur skills and her music albums, colluding with a number of international artistes like Pitbull and Nicki Minaj.

Life Journey
Paris Hilton was born on February 17, 1981, to the former actress, Kathy Richards, and real estate kingpin, Richard Hilton. She is the eldest of her other three siblings – Nicholai, Barron, and Conrad. She is of German, Norwegian, Italian and Irish ancestry. Given the childhood nickname “Star” by her mother and grandmother, Hilton, who started modeling as a child at philanthropic functions, was born into acting capital.
Her maternal grandmother was actress “Big” Kathy Dugan, and aunts Kim and Kyle Richards proceed to make film and television characters. Hilton is also related by marriage to Zsa Zsa Gabor, who wed Hilton’s great-grandfather, Conrad Hilton, and Elizabeth Taylor, who was briefly married to Hilton’s great uncle, Conrad Nicholson Hilton Jr.
From a very young age, Paris saw nothing but beauty and generosity. She studied at St. Paul the Apostle Church and School from where she graduated in 1995.
At the age of 14, the family relocated to the East Coast and she then attended an array of schools including ‘Convent of the Sacred Heart’, ‘Provo Canyon School’, ‘Canterbury Boarding School’ and ‘Dwight School’, before dropping out as a high school junior.
She began modeling from very early on and signed her first modeling contract with the agency ‘T Management’ at the age of 19. She loved to model and soon became a regular face on tabloids and at party scenes.
By 2001, young Paris Hilton received the standing of a ‘socialite’ and was known as ‘New York’s leading IT Girl’. The following year, she was given a small task in the horror film, ‘Nine Lives’.
As East Coast transplants, Hilton and her sister regularly visited society functions, charitable events, fashion shows, and A-list parties. The two soon became regulars on the red carpet, and a titillating 2000 Vanity Fair opened shot by famed photographer David LaChapelle pasted their burgeoning popularity.
Around this time, Hilton contracted with Donald Trump’s modeling agency, T Management. She was soon seen in a flurry of campaigns for leading clothing designers such as Christian Dior and Tommy Hilfiger, as well as national publications. Hilton went on to work with other top agencies, including Ford Models Management and London’s Model 1 Agency.
Paris Hilton Net Worth
Paris Hilton has a net worth of $320 million dollars.
Estimated Net Worth in 2023 (Approx) | $320 million |
Estimated Net Worth in 2022 (Approx) | $300 million |
Estimated Net Worth in 2021 (Approx) | Under Review |
Annual Salary | Under Review |
Income Source | Model, businesswoman, socialite, music producer, fashion designer, singer, DJ, author |
Her licensing domain today includes retail stores around the world that sell Paris-branded clothing, handbags, perfumes, and more. To date, she has endorsed 17 fragrances that have generated over $2 billion in gross income. In fact, the majority of Paris’ net worth is attributable to her perfume royalties. She likely gets a 20-30% cut of profits made.
Paris Hilton’s grandfather Barron was reportedly so embarrassed by his granddaughter’s antics that in 2007 he adjusted the terms of his will to leave 97% of his $4.5 billion fortune to charity instead of his family. So, instead of approximately two dozen people inheriting $4.5 billion, $190 million per person, those same people split 3% of $4.5 billion. That’s a total of $135 million, around $5.6 million per person.
In 2007, Paris spent $5.9 million for a home in a guarded gated community in the LA suburb of Sherman Oaks. It was this home that was burglarized by the so-called “Bling Ring”. She beforehand had a $6.2 million home in Beverly Hills and a home in the Hollywood Hills. In 2014 Paris bought a penthouse in downtown Manhattan for $4.9 million.

Arrest and Jailtime
While her business efforts were taking off, Hilton’s hard-partying private lifestyle would catch up with her in September 2006, when she was detained on suspicion of driving under the impact of alcohol. Hilton was arrested and placed on punishment. The heiress was back in court only a few months later after the Los Angeles City Attorney’s Office alleged that she had violated the terms of her probation by driving on a suspended license.
In May 2007, Hilton was jailed to 45 days in jail, a sentence that was later reduced to 23 days. Hilton announced to the Century Regional Detention Facility in Lynwood, California, on the night of June 3, directly after she performed an appearance at the 2007 MTV Movie Awards. After serving only three full days in prison, Hilton was released early in the morning on June 7 for undefined health reasons. The court ordered her to complete her sentence by spending 40 days in home detention.
Responding to the judgment that Hilton was receiving special treatment as a result of her celebrity status, a judge ordered Hilton to return to jail. Upon detecting the sentence, Hilton screamed, “It’s not right!” and asked for her mother. She was subsequently relocated to the medical wing of the Twin Towers Correctional Facility in Los Angeles and transferred back to the Century Regional Detention Facility on June 13.
Hilton was discharged from jail on June 26, 2007, serving a total of 22 days in detention. As networks vied for her first post-incarceration meeting, the Hilton family drew negative press for trying to extract a million-dollar fee from Barbara Walters and ABC. A furious Walters denied, and network interest disappeared. Finally, a reformed Hilton performed for free on Larry King Live, maintaining that the jail’s minister had inspired her to make a “new beginning.”
