Paris Hilton

Paris Whitney Hilton was born on 17th February and has made huge fame as an American socialite, heiress, media personality, model, singer, songwriter, author, fashion designer and actress.

Whilst she is an heir to the Hilton Hotel empire her most notorious popularity has arguably come from the infamous internet posted sex tape and her stint in jail for driving offences.

She earned approximately $2 million in 2003–2004, $6.5 million in 2004–2005, and $7 million in 2005–2006 according to Forbes magazine.

Paris began modelling as a child and she signed with Donald Trump's modelling agency, T Management when she was 19. She has also worked with Ford Models in New York, Models 1 Agency in London, Nous Model Management in Los Angeles, and Premier Model Management in London.

She has been the face of numerous brands including GUESS, Tommy Hilfiger, Christian Dior, and Marciano.

In 2001 Paris became one of New York's most prominent it-girls.

During her career she has designed purses for Japanese label Samantha Thavasa, jewellery line Amazon.com and was involved in the creation of a perfume line by Parlux Fragrances.

She launched a line of tops, dresses, coats, and jeans at Kitson boutique in 2007.

Paris was engaged to fashion model Jason Shaw in mid-2002 and then in 2004 had a relationship with singer Nick Carter. She began dating The Hills star Doug Reinhardt in February 2009 and due to turbulence in their relationship they eventually split in April 2010.

She has been photographed on an ongoing basis with her pet chihuahua, which has now become a fashion icon accessory for girls around the world.
