Back when Paris Hilton was defining what it meant to be âfamous for being famousâ, there was no social media to help her along. And in a new interview with the âHollywood Reporterâ, she says sheâs glad there wasnât.
âI feel like kids nowadays donât know what real fun it was. When I was a teenager in New York, it was so much fun going out. No one was on their phone. No one was taking pictures or doing any of that.
âWe were just there to literally have a good time. So I donât think it would have been as fun because people would have been on their phones the whole time.â
Paris did go viral, though, thanks to her leaked sex tape, which she talks about in a new documentary called âThe American Memeâ.
âIt felt like Iâve lost part of my soul and been talked about in such cruel and mean ways. I literally wanted to die at some points. I was like, âI just donât want to live.â Because I thought everything was taken away from me. I didnât want to be known as that.â
