Paris Hilton is speaking up again as old rumors about her supposed connection to Jeffrey Epstein resurface in headlines.
The claim originated in a 2020 Daily Mail story, which quoted an unnamed source who said Ghislaine Maxwell once spotted a teenage Hilton at a party and reacted with excitement, allegedly calling her “perfect” for Epstein and asking for an introduction.
The report suggested the moment happened when Hilton was around 19 and newly signed with Trump’s modeling agency, but it never offered concrete details.
The story has lingered online and resurfaced as political pressure grows over the possible release of the “Epstein files.” President Donald Trump recently encouraged House Republicans to vote in favor of releasing the documents, reversing his earlier resistance.
The renewed attention has pulled Hilton’s name back into the conversation, even though she has repeatedly denied any connection.
In a new interview with The Sunday Times, Hilton said she has no memory of ever meeting Maxwell and called the claim baseless. She added that she believes her name keeps getting dragged into sensational stories simply because it attracts clicks.
“I don’t even remember ever meeting her,” Hilton told The Sunday Times Magazine. “I’m such a good clickbait name.”
Hilton is now focused on her family, her business, and her advocacy work, and she wants the public to know she had no involvement in Epstein’s seedy world.
