Paris Hilton's parents helped her remain 'grounded'
Paris Hilton has always been a "down-to-earth girl". The 44-year-old star has credited her parents for instilling a "strong work ethic" into her, and Paris believes she's been unaffected by her own fame and success. Paris - who starred on the reality series 'The Simple Life' between 2003 and 2007 - told HELLO! magazine: "I feel as though I've been the same my whole life. My parents instilled a strong work ethic in me from when I was very young and that has always kept me grounded. "I remember when the very first 'Simple Life' episode aired, my mom took me aside and told me that my life was about to change forever but that I should never stop being the same down-to-earth girl I am. I've never forgotten that." Paris has always been very ambitious, and she doesn't have any intention of slowing down. The reality TV star explained: "I love making entertainment. I love making products. I love being creative and making people happy. That is what I've tried to do my whole career. "I feel lucky that I've been able to do everything and be successful at it at the same time." Earlier this year, Paris hailed 'Stars Are Blind' as the "most iconic pop song ever made". The blonde beauty released the hit single back in 2006 and Paris still sings the song in the shower. She told Us Weekly: "I was actually just singing it in the shower this morning because it's the most iconic pop song ever made. My favourite song." Paris has enjoyed success in various fields, but she's "always" thinking of new ideas. Paris - who is married to entrepreneur Carter Reum - shared: "I have ADHD so my brain does not stop moving, and I'm always thinking of ideas. "I'm such a night owl even if I'm trying to go to bed. So it depends. If I have to wake up at like six in the morning for work the next day, I will force myself to go to sleep at 11 or 12. But some nights I just cannot sleep and I love watching TV [even though] my husband goes to bed early."

10 Actresses Who Made Powerful Comebacks After Break: From Drew Barrymore to Jennifer Lopez
Hollywood has seen several actresses take a break from the spotlight to focus on their personal lives or rediscover themselves away from the attention. When they return to the showbiz after years to deliver breathtaking performances, audiences cannot stop gushing. In an industry with "out of sight, out of mind" mentality, these actresses have proven that their fandom can wait years to see them grace the silver screen or television again, no matter how long their sabbatical was. Here are 10 actresses who reclaimed their place in the industry and returned to acting after a break! Nicole Richie Comeback Project: Great News Director/Producer: Tracey Wigfield Release Year: 2017 Nicole Richie rose to fame with the reality show, The Simple Life, which also featured Paris Hilton and aired from 2003 to 2007. The show abruptly came to an end when both Richie and Hilton faced DUI charges. Post the controversy, she remained out of the spotlight for over a decade. In 2017, she made a major comeback as Portia Scott-Griffith in the NBC sitcom Great News. She is now married and also has two kids. Richie also launched a successful fashion line, named House of Harlow. Drew Barrymore Comeback Project: The Wedding Singer Director/Producer: Frank Coraci Release Year: 1998 Drew Barrymore had a troubled childhood. After achieving immense fame as a child actor in E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982) and Firestarter (1984), the actress's life went downhill. She started drinking alcohol at 9, began smoking pot regularly by 10, and was addicted to cocaine by 12. She was sent to a rehab center at 13 and again at 14, when she tried to commit suicide by cutting her wrists. Despite her struggles and bad image, she continued to work in the industry, but the 1998 film The Wedding Singer brought her back to the forefront. After rebranding her image, she continued to be a highly bankable star in Hollywood. Betty White Comeback Project: The Proposal Director/Producer: Anne Fletcher Release Year: 2009 Betty White made a mark in the industry as a television actress on the CBS sitcom The Mary Tyler Moore Show (1973–1977) and the NBC sitcom The Golden Girls (1985–1992). In 2009, she made her comeback in the romantic comedy film The Proposal with Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds. She later starred in You Again and did voice work for several other projects. She died on December 31, 2021, seventeen days before her 100th birthday. Jennifer Lopez Comeback Project: Hustlers Director/Producer: Lorene Scafaria Release Year: 2019 After starring in the 2003 film Gigli with Ben Affleck, JLo didn't bag a major acting role, so she decided to focus on other passions, like singing. However, in 2019, she once again proved her acting prowess in Hustlers, which also starred Constance Wu, Julia Stiles, Lili Reinhart, Keke Palmer, Lizzo, and Cardi B. Since then, she has delivered several groundbreaking performances in films like Marry Me, Shotgun Wedding, The Mother, Atlas, Unstoppable, and Kiss of the Spider Woman. Next, she will feature in Office Romance, directed by Ol Parker, written by Brett Goldstein. Hilary Duff Comeback Project: Younger Director/Producer: Darren Star Release Year: 2015 Disney darling Hilary Duff shot to fame in the early '00s by playing Lizzie McGuire in the titular TV series and movie. She also played pivotal roles in Cheaper by the Dozen and A Cinderella Story. However, post that, she vanished from the screens and only made a few cameos here and there. In 2016, she decided to make a comeback with TV Land's Younger as the main lead, Kelsey Peters. The series' finale aired in June 2021. The role brought her back to the spotlight, and her fans were all praise for her performance. Natasha Lyonne Comeback Project: Orange Is the New Black Director/Producer: Jenji Kohan Release Year: 2013 Natasha Lyonne surprised fans with her acting in the 1999 teen comedy American Pie. However, she struggled to bag a major role in films or television shows later. After taking up several small roles, she bagged her breakthrough project in 2013. She starred as Nicky Nichols in Orange is the New Black and proved that it's never too late for a comeback. She later played the role of Nadia Vulvokov in Russian Doll, further cementing her status in Hollywood. Winona Ryder Comeback Project: Stranger Things Director/Producer: The Duffer Brothers Release Year: 2016 Before getting arrested in 2001 for shoplifting, Winona Ryder played several pivotal roles in films and television shows. When the controversy resulted in an unannounced ban from Hollywood, she took a four-year career hiatus. Even though she starred in several films from 2006 to 2015, her major comeback project is seen as Netflix's science fiction-horror series Stranger Things. In the show, she was seen as Joyce Byers, a single mother whose 12-year-old son Will vanishes mysteriously. Jane Fonda Comeback Project: Monster-in-Law Director/Producer: Robert Luketic Release Year: 2005 Jane Fonda's breakthrough role came in the 1965 film Cat Ballou. In 1968, she played the title role in the science fiction spoof Barbarella, which established her status as a sex symbol. She won her first Academy Award for Best Actress in 1971, for Alan J. Pakula's neo-noir psychological thriller Klute. In the 80s, she became the queen of fitness and released several workout videos. After a fifteen-year hiatus, she released two new fitness videos on DVD in 2010. In 2005, she returned to the screen with the box office success Monster-in-Law, starring opposite Jennifer Lopez. Mädchen Amick Comeback Project: Riverdale Director/Producer: Warner Bros. Television and CBS Studios Release Year: 2017 Mädchen Amick was an acting sensation in the '80s and '90s. But her career saw a few years of quiet in the 2000s until she starred as Alice Cooper in CW's dark mystery TV show, Riverdale, based on the Archie comic book series. On the silver screen, she was last seen as Jean Brooks in the 2005 film Lies and Deception and also played a small role as Shannon Pace in the 2011 film Priest. Marisol Nichols Comeback Project: Riverdale Director/Producer: Warner Bros. Television and CBS Studios Release Year: 2017 Marisol Nichols made her movie debut as Audrey Griswold in the film Vegas Vacation with Chevy Chase and Beverly D'Angelo. She also starred in the drama series Resurrection Blvd.. The Princess and the Marine, Cold Case, and Blind Justice. Before a five-year hiatus, she starred in the ABC TV series GCB, with Leslie Bibb, Kristin Chenoweth, Annie Potts, Jennifer Aspen, and Miriam Shor. In 2017, Nichols starred as Hermione Lodge, the mother of Veronica Lodge, in Riverdale. The journeys of these actresses who made powerful comebacks after taking a break are nothing short of inspirational. Each of them defied the odds, navigated personal and professional challenges, and returned to the screen with a renewed sense of purpose. In an industry that often sidelines women after a certain age, these women shattered stereotypes and redefined what it means to be successful on their terms.

Paris Hilton does not miss The Simple Life days
Paris Hilton does not miss anything about her days on 'The Simple Life'. The 44-year-old hotel heiress shot to fame alongside Nicole Richie in 2003 on the iconic reality show series, which saw the pair move in with the Leding family in Altus, Arkansas, to learn how middle-class families live. But Paris - who is the great-granddaughter of Conrad Hilton, the founder of Hilton Hotels - has since distanced herself from that life. She explained to HELLO! magazine: "I feel as though I've lived that life and done it all. I love my life now. "I love just being at home with my family, with my babies. I'm still working a lot, but my children are my priority. "Just seeing them wake up in the morning is so sweet. And reading stories to them at night and cuddling them is just so magical ... "I remember when the very first 'Simple Life' aired, my mom [Kathy Hilton] took me aside and told me that my life was about to change forever, but that I should never stop being the same down-to-earth girl I am. "I've never forgotten that." Paris and her businessman husband Carter Reum got married in November 2021, and later welcomed Phoenix, two, and London, 12 months, into the world. The ceremony and reception were held in her late grandfather's former home in Bel Air. The 'Infinite Icon' singer feels grateful for Carter lifting her and their bundles of joy "every day". Speaking about her "kindest, sweetest man", she gushed: "He's just the best. He's so incredible. He really lifts me and our two beautiful little angels every day. "I feel so grateful for my family, my fans and my fur babies. They all make me feel so happy." The 'Stars Are Blind' singer loves "making entertainment" and products, but she says her and Carter's children always come first before any projects. Paris said: "I don't like to be put in a box and only be able to do one thing. I've always been like that. "My babies come first, but there are so many things I'm passionate about. I love making entertainment. I love making products. I just love being creative and making people happy. That is what I've tried to do my whole career. "I feel lucky that I've been able to do everything and be successful at it at the same time."

People Are Genuinely Baffled After Paris Hilton Revealed The 'Life Hack' She Uses To Remove Grease From Her Pizza
Paris Hilton has raised several eyebrows after sharing an…interesting 'life hack.' Paris, 44, posted a TikTok video this week demonstrating how she gets rid of any excess grease on her pizza. While most people would probably just use a napkin for this task, Paris — who is mom to two young children — threw her pepperoni pizza slice sauce-side down onto the outside of the cardboard box it was delivered in. Related: Donald Trump's Apparent Baldness Is Going Viral In A New Photo She then pressed the slice down further onto the box, stating, 'That's my trick!' When Paris lifted the slice off, there was — expectedly — a giant triangular-shaped grease stain in its place (and, miraculously, zero sauce or toppings). She then chucked the piece down once more, dabbing again to get rid of all the oil. Related: "Rude, Crass, Entitled Piece Of Garbage": People Are Revealing Their Best And Worst Celebrity Encounters, And These Are Genuinely Soooo Fascinating Once satisfied, Paris grabbed the pizza and proudly took a huge bite out of it. Well, tons of internet users have been left pretty grossed out by Paris's 'hack.' 'Girl. The boxes are dirty,' read one popular TikTok comment. 'On the OUTSIDE of the box ?? girl use the inside,' said another, while someone else suggested, 'Or just use a paper towel and dab the pizza.' 'On top of the box? Like how many people touched the box BEFORE you slapped that pizza on it? Like the places and hands …. Mercy,' one person wrote on Instagram. Another user questioned, 'Were there any napkins around?' 'That box has been through factories, hands, car floors and more,' one user pointed out, while another described the move as 'gross.' One more person quipped, 'the Heiress to the Hilton hotel didn't have a napkin?' Of course, there's a huge chance that Paris was simply playing around and channeling her old The Simple Life energy — after all, she did once make a grilled cheese with an iron.
