Paris Hilton: Surviving the 2000s, Being An Infinite Icon, and Building Her Dream Life

This week, Tommy is joined by global pop culture icon, entrepreneur, and media force, Paris Hilton. Best known for redefining celebrity in the early 2000s, Paris has spent decades turning public perception into a powerful, multi-hyphenate career. Now, as she continues to evolve as an artist, producer, and advocate, she’s reclaiming her story on her own terms.

Paris opens up about growing up underestimated, navigating the New York club scene, and why the “dumb blonde” persona became both a character and a trauma response. She reflects on early reality TV and pop culture’s treatment of women, touching on figures like Britney Spears and the lasting impact of that era. Paris also discusses guiding her public image, what she’s most proud of today, and the moments that helped her truly believe in herself—including validation from artists like Madonna and Sia.

Later, she dives into her music journey…from Stars Are Blind to the deeper meaning behind Infinite Icon, as well as motherhood, forgiveness, and confronting painful chapters of her past publicly for the first time. The conversation also explores her advocacy work around AI, her hands-on role in developing a new television project with A24 alongside Elle and Dakota, and a deeply personal story she says she’s never shared before.
