About this listen

***An Instant New York Times Bestseller***

From the woman who is credited for launching what we know as the celebrity-focused, “brand”-driven, social-media-obsessed popular culture of today, comes an honest and surprising memoir that reckons with that truth, and shows that there is so much more to Paris Hilton than you might believe. This extended edition includes a bonus chapter detailing her motherhood journey.

I was born in New York City on February 17, 1981, three days after Valentine’s Day.

From the time I was a toddler, my brain skipped and flickered with the chemical imbalance of ADHD. Sometimes it was too much.

I’m not bragging or complaining about it, just telling you: This is my brain. It has a lot to do with how this whole book thing is going to play out, because I love run-on sentences—and dashes. And sentence fragments. I’m probably going to jump around a lot while I tell the story.

I came of age during the most turbulent pop culture period ever.

The character I played—part Lucy, part Marilyn—was my steel-plated armor.

People loved her. Or they loved to hate her, which was just as marketable. I leaned into that character, my ticket to financial freedom and a safe place to hide. I made sure I never had a quiet moment to figure out who I was without her. I was afraid of that moment because I didn’t know what I’d find.

I wrote this book in an effort to understand my place in a watershed moment: the technology renaissance, the age of influencers. I also wrote this book so that the world could know who I am today. I focused on key aspects of my life that led to what I am most proud of—how my power was taken away from me and how I took it back, how I built a thriving business, a marriage and a family.

There are so many young women who need to hear this story. I don’t want them to learn from my mistakes; I want them to stop hating themselves for their own mistakes. I want them to laugh and cry and embrace every aspect of who they are with fearlessness and pride. We all have our own brand of intelligence, and, girl, f--k fitting in.

Gut wrenching raw

After sharing my troubled youth lockup experience with a friend of mine, she suggested I read this book. I have never felt. I could have anything in common with Paris Hilton being a 5 foot 9 200 pound mother of 5 from Utah. But as I read this book I sobbed with our similarities. I have a newfound respect for a woman I never knew I could relate to so much. ADHD, childhood trauma, child loss, ambition & drive. She so eloquently worded things that are so hard to say & hear. This is a must read.

Better than expected!

I love biographies and this is a great one.Not a fan of hers originally,but just goes to show she is much more than her public persona.She also did a great job narrating.Highly recommended.

She’s so real and I love it.

Paris is you’re reading this review, I applaud your courage to opening up and sharing your story. I’ve adored you ever since the Simple Life and I hoped that you chose me to be your BFF when you had that show.

I always thought she was so normal, but when I heard her story, i realized she was beyond that. She is a survivor. She tells her story in this audiobook of such resilience and perseverance.

I also very much appreciate that she narrated this book. It was like she was telling me this story personally, which I love.

The extended edition I think is an add on chapter.

Anyway job well done.

Shocking and Powerful

Always liked Paris, but had no idea the trauma she experienced growing up. Makes me adore her for the ability she has to speak so openly about it all while sliving her best life.

better than I expected

I've never even followed Paris Hilton, but I thought I'd give it a shot for a light read after the horrible election results and I was shocked that I actually found it interesting and was captivated throughout
