When I mention Paris Hilton, you probably cringe.
Vain, dumb blonde, rich kid, not very useful.
Those are probably what pops up in your mind eh?
But I see a motivated entrepreneur who has matured over time and building her own empire with her own hands.
She hustles hard.
She is enterprising.
She works harder than most billionaire heiress, especially when she doesn’t need to.
She adapts to the times.
From doing her own reality show, to becoming a model and singer, and now even jumping on the NFT hype and owning a Bored Ape.
She didn’t sit on her wealth and twiddle her thumbs.
She owns 11:11 Media, a media content company.
She even started a podcast “This is Paris” last year.
Now, she is bringing her talents into the metaverse.
She is planning to sell her own NFTs and host virtual parties in The Sandbox.
She will create her virtual Malibu mansion, allow fans to buy digital assets and avatars.
She previously built her “Paris Hilton World” in Roblox in 2021 and DJ-ed as herself for the New Year.
I mean seriously, her resume is pretty awesome.
Her hands are in everything!
She is quite the dynamic entrepreneur.
Experimenting on new things, being bold enough to dive into new industries, pivoting where needed and still managing to manipulate the media to her needs expertly.
Yes she has had her controversies and her weird antics at times.
But for what is worth, she does try so very hard.
Paris is famous for being famous.
She has her own clothing line, perfume business, her own reality show, is currently a DJ and well-known socialite and even had a short stint as a singer.
Have you heard any of her songs before?
What I find shocking was that she didn’t inherit anything from her great-grandfather, who founded the Hilton Hotels brand.
The Hilton Hotel franchise is worth $37B.
The Hilton brand has been around for nearly a century and have more than 6000+ hotels in 120+ countries.
“The Blackstone Group purchased Hilton Hotels for $26 billion in 2007”.
Apparently Paris didn’t get a cent.
Still, at a networth of nearly $300M, it is impressive to get there on her own two feet.
I mean for someone like her, with a last name Hilton, she really didn’t have to work so hard or do anything except sip margaritas on the beach and dance at parties all night.
Hate her or love her, you have to admire her hustle.
For a someone like her who already has it all, she really works hard and dips her fingers everywhere.
Let’s see what she will do in web3.

Do you think Paris Hilton is a good entrepreneur?
