Paris Hilton Trademarks

Paris Hilton is perhaps one of the first influencers, named by the media as ”famous for being famous”. But she’s also a savvy businesswoman, heiress, and reality television star.

Paris is the great-granddaughter of hotel mogul Conrad Hilton, who founded the luxury Hilton Hotel brand. She was born in 1981 in New York and was raised between Beverly Hills and Manhattan.

Hilton began modeling with Donald Trump’s agency, T-management, in the early 2000s. She took a few minor movie roles around this time and stepped into the spotlight when she made a hit reality show with her best friend, Nicole Richie. The Simple Life ran for four years.

From 2004 onwards, Hilton appeared in more TV shows and movies, including Veronica Mars and The OC. Hilton also released her first book, Confessions of an Heiress: A Tongue-in-Chic Peek Behind the Pose. It rose to number 7 in the New York Times Best Seller list. In 2007, Hilton had her first significant experience with trademark law when she brought a lawsuit against Hallmark for using her likeness and ”that’s hot” (one of her famous trademarked catchphrases).

In 2009 she launched her online store, ParisHilton.com, where she sells her clothing line, false lashes, and other products.

Hilton also experimented with DJing, launching her career in Brazil in 2012, and began to win awards for her work. She was the highest-paid female DJ in the world in 2014.

Hilton broke into the real estate market with Paris Beach Club at the Azure Urban Resort in the Philippines in collaboration with Century Properties Group, Inc.

In 2015 Hilton released ”High Off My Love” which made its way to number three on the dance club charts. Soon after, she launched her hair care range. Hilton returned to the runway in 2017 and 2018, walking for Philipp Plein, Kanye West, and Christian Cowan.

Hilton currently splits her time between her NYC penthouse and a house in Los Angeles, CA. Her net worth is above 300 million.
