Paris Hilton recalls her mother’s advice on staying grounded in fame

WASHINGTON : Reality TV star and entrepreneur Paris Hilton credited her mother, Kathy Hilton, with teaching her the importance of staying humble in the face of fame.

According to Page Six, Hilton shared a pivotal piece of advice her mother gave her before the premiere of her show, ‘The Simple Life,’ in the early 2000s.

Hilton recalled her mother’s words and shared, “Paris, when the show airs on Fox tomorrow, your life is going to change forever, and I always want you to remain the same sweet and down-to-earth girl you are and never forget that,” as quoted by Page Six.

Hilton said she has kept these words “close to [her] heart” throughout her career.

Hilton was being honoured as “Woman of the Year” for her relief efforts following the Palisades and Eaton Fires earlier this year.

Despite losing her USD 8.4 million Malibu home in the devastation, Hilton worked with various organisations and raised over USD 800,000 for Los Angeles wildfire relief efforts through her nonprofit 11:11 Media Impact, as per Page Six.

Hilton expressed her gratitude for her parents and grandmother, who she said have been her role models.

“They both just have the biggest hearts and always make me laugh and have the best time. They are both incredible mothers and my role models,” she said, as quoted by Page Six.

Hilton reflected on the loss of her home, saying she was shocked and heartbroken, but quickly shifted her focus to those who had lost more.

“My heart was breaking for all the moms and all of their children who had nowhere to sleep that night and who had lost everything,” she said. (ANI)
