Paris Hilton's honest sex life admission after revealing horrible nickname

Paris Hilton has made an honest confession about her sex life after revealing the horrific nickname she was given following the release of a tape in 2004.

After the mom-of-two shot to fame in the early 2000s staring alongside Nicole Richie in the hit reality series, The Simple Life, the tabloids completely obsessed over Hilton's party-girl persona, tiny dogs, and fashion choices, as she quickly became on icon of the noughties.

But it was in 2004 that the star was thrust into a media frenzy, when her former boyfriend, Rick Salomon - who was around 35 at the time - allegedly released a private video of the two without her consent.

She publicly revealed that she had been 'out of it' when the leaked tape, titled 1 Night In Paris, was filmed - a claim that Salomon later sued the reality star for making.

But Hilton countersued Salomon over the initial release of the tape, and reports suggest that she was rewarded around $400,000 in damages.

The 45-year-old opened up about life after the tape on an episode of the Call Her Daddy podcast in 2025, where she admitted that intimacy had been a struggle for her in the years following its release.

"I played into the character," she confessed to host Alex Cooper about her 2000s party-girl persona.

Opening up about the reality of her experience, Hilton admitted: "It just made me scared about anything that had to do with sex. Like after that I was so closed off.

"I didn't want to hook up with anyone because I was just nervous.

"Like I would date people, but I would only kiss them because I would just be nervous to do anything else."

Hilton said that while the 'whole world' knew her as a 'sex symbol', she felt very different inside.

The American personality also claimed that she even gained the nickname 'Miss Blue Baller'.

She explained: "That's what people would call me because I wouldn't do anything but then in the public people assumed something else."

Her loyal fans rushed to the comments to share their love for the icon, as one said: "I hate the way female celebrities were treated by the media in the 2000s. So happy to see Paris thriving."

As another added: "I saw Paris’ documentary a few years ago and my perception about her changed completely.

"She is not only a very beautiful woman, but she is smart, funny, kind and very inspiring."

Hilton has since married 45-year-old entrepreneur Carter Reum, they are said to have known each other for 15 years before reconnecting in 2019. They tied the knot in November 2011 at Hilton's late grandfather's former Bel Air estate.

The couple have welcomed two children via surrogate, son Phoenix in January 2023 and daughter London in November that same year.

Speaking about motherhood at the premiere of her documentary, Infinite Icon: A Visual Memoir, in January, Hilton told PEOPLE: “It's the best thing ever. My babies are my world, my life.

“I get to take them all around the world with me on my adventures. And they both love music so much. They're so proud of me.

“So it makes me feel, really, just like a proud, cool mom, just to have my kids be able to experience all these things in my life.”
