Paris Hilton will always remember how Pink shamed her over her notorious intercourse tape.
The 42-year-old persona has been very candid in her ebook Paris: The Memoir, together with her 2001 intercourse tape together with her then-boyfriend Rick Salomon. As we beforehand reported, Paris revealed he pressured her into making the video – promising her that “no one else would ever see it.” Despite the heiress repeatedly shutting the concept down because it made her “uncomfortable,” she in the end felt like she had no selection however to present in after Rick threatened to “find someone” else to make the intercourse tape. She defined within the memoir:
“He told me if I wouldn’t do it, he could easily find someone who would and that was the worst thing I could think of – to be dumped by this grown man because I was a stupid kid who didn’t know how to play grown-up games.”

Mind you, Paris was 19 on the time whereas Rick was 33 years outdated when “1 Night in Paris” was recorded. She was simply an adolescent. It was past disgusting of him. The DJ even stated she drank alcohol and took Quaaludes beforehand. Awful. She instantly regretted what occurred, but it surely was sadly launched in 2004 with out her consent:
“He said he had every right to sell something that belonged to him — something that had a lot of financial value. More value than my privacy, obviously. My dignity. My future. Shame, loss and stark terror swept over me.”
Eventually, the extreme scrutiny over the scandal died down. But years later, the disgrace and public ridicule returned when Pink launched her music video for her tune Stupid Girls in 2006, through which she parodied Paris’ intercourse tape. You can take a look at the clip (under):
Oof.
Paris recalled in her memoir how the 43-year-old singer made her “shame” over the scenario worse on the time, writing:
“Pink sang about ‘outcasts and girls with ambition. That’s what I wanna see. But she chose not to see it in me. The world thinks of me as a sex symbol, and I’m here for that, because ‘symbol’ literally means ‘icon.’ But when people saw that sex tape, they didn’t say ‘icon,’ they said ‘slut.’ They said ‘whore.’ And they weren’t shy about it. The whole video is a not-at-all-subtle send-up of ‘porno paparazzi girls’ in general and, specifically, me, in a parody of my infamous sex tape.”
She then provided up an vital perspective, saying:
“When everyone was buzzing about a sex tape of a certain teenage girl from a soon-to-be-hit TV show – a girl who said emphatically over and over that she did not want the tape out there – the takeaway was Stupid Girl.”
Innerestingly sufficient, Pink revealed on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen in 2017 that the Stars Are Blind singer as soon as confronted her in regards to the video, sharing:
“Paris was upset with me. She said, ‘I just want you to know that I get it, I’m not dumb, I just play like I’m dumb.’ And I was like, ‘that’s kind of my point… I’m gonna go, good to see ya.’”
And given how a lot Paris handled throughout the fallout of the intercourse tape, nobody would blame her for feeling damage by Pink for the video. However, Paris stated she selected to not maintain a grudge towards her and insisted there was no feud between them:
“I have the attention span of a gnat, which means I suck at holding grudges. Anyway, anger doesn’t help; honesty does. So, I’m being honest right now.”
We like to see that Paris is sharing her fact, though it should not be simple to discuss these painful moments from her previous. At this time, Pink has not responded to what the Simple Life alum wrote in her ebook. Reactions, Perezcious readers? Let us know within the feedback under.
