Paris Hilton to Headline Brighton Pride as Sunday Icon in 2026
Paris Hilton, the self-styled 'infinite icon,' will perform a rare UK set at Brighton & Hove Pride's Pride On The Park on Sunday, August 2, 2026. In an interview with AnOther Magazine, she discusses her evolving career, advocacy, and LGBTQ+ community ties. Hilton rose to fame via the reality series 'The Simple Life' with Nicole Richie and has since built a global brand encompassing fragrances (30th scent 'Iconic' in 2024), music (album 'Infinite Icon' in 2024), and DJing. Her 2020 documentary 'This is Paris' and 2023 memoir 'Paris: The Memoir' revealed her abuse at boarding schools, leading to her advocacy. In December 2024, the US House passed the Stop Institutional Child Abuse Act, partly due to her testimony. A24 acquired rights to her memoir for a TV series produced by the Fanning sisters. Hilton cites Madonna as a top collaboration wish and emphasizes kindness as key to longevity.
