Paris Hilton Is a Big-Heart, Whole Human Brainiac in Grazia Global by Daniella Midenge AOC Fashion

On a sun-drenched rooftop in Venice Beach, California, Paris Hilton [IG] stepped into the spotlight with photographer Daniella Midenge [IG] at her side. The glamorous Paris Hilton was poised to create image magic with Midenge; and by all standards they succeeded.

The headlining-driving creator, influencer, empath and brainiac is the April 2025 global cover star for 10 editions of Grazia worldwide including USA, Italy, UK, Netherlands, Germany, Bulgaria, India, France, Singapore, and Malaysia.

This worldwide exposure in Grazia isn’t the first time, Paris Hilton has grabbed for a human-size, Olympics gold ring. In spring 2023, Hilton responded to an outpouring of positivity and caught-off-guard understanding and support for her unknown, personal journey first revealed in the 2020 Documentary ‘This Is Paris’. Hilton’s response was a new book ‘Paris: The Memoir’.

In explaining the personal revelations in her film, one magazine summed up Paris’ point-of-view perfectly: “I’m Not a Dumb Blonde. I’m Just Really Good at Pretending to Be One.” Hilton raises this concept in her new Grazia interview, and AOC processed it through the lens of Marilyn Monroe.

We will never know exactly why Monroe ended her life, but we do know that she was an enormously-informed woman, who struggled to be taken seriously as an intelligent person. The books in her library told a very different story about Marilyn’s intellectual capacity — which was for real, as people close to the Hollywood star have confirmed.

In the case of Paris Hilton, she tells Marshall Heyman on Grazia: “I had created this kind of Barbie doll, perfect life character to be like a mask.” And we note that Paris brought up Marilyn as well in her own narrative.

A Blue Door Shatters Precious Memories

Paris Hilton, her husband Carter Reum and their two children Phoenix [age 2] and London [age 1] did not know that their home had burned to the ground in January. Their Malibu home had a unique blue door, obvious in the rubble, which is how they learned the news.

In the aftermath of the fire, Hilton raised over a million dollars for Los Angeles fire emergency relief efforts.

Paris went to Pasadena, working with the Humane Society to care for severely-burned animals. She helped put people up in hotels, visiting them, and “bringing surprises.”

Hilton’s nonprofit, 11:11 Media Impact, partnered with GoFundMe and the Pasadena Women's Business Center to award $25,000 grants to 50 women-owned small businesses in Altadena, California. This Paris Hilton project was just reported out this week and is not part of the Grazia Interview.

It’s nearly impossible to itemize all of Paris’ good works in recent months. But we make a good stab at listing them in the link top of page. ~ Anne
