Paris Hilton who is now “working a lot, getting paid very well and having a ball,” in London for another DJing gig
"I am working a lot as a DJ and getting paid very well and having a ball," Paris Hilton told Richard Johnson at the New York Post back in October.Having been named as winner of the "Female DJ of the Year" award for this year, she does seem also quite good at her new job.
Hilton was recently in London to DJ at Tuesday's club opening of Bonbonniere London, which is reportedly owned by a friend, and for which she was rumored to have been paid £40,000 ($62,479), a cut on her usual fee per set which is reportedly upwards of £620,000 ($968,430). Before and following her gig at the club, the 33-year-old socialite heiress was spotted taking in the city's sights, including at the Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park where she obligingly posed for the photographers wearing black skintight leather trousers, fur trimmed gray swing coat, black hat, leather fingerless gloves and suede ankle boots. She posted Instagram snaps of herself captioned "I love Christmas time in London!" and "Ready for another beautiful day of London adventures. #ParisinLondon."
According to the Guardian, Hilton regularly also DJs at clubs in China, Dubai and Ibiza, in addition to an ongoing residency at Harrah's Resort in Atlantic City, New Jersey. She averages about two gigs per week. As she told the New York Post, "I'm very proud. I've worked hard. I love music. It's my passion..., but it's great to be paid well for what you love doing."
Aside from her gigs as DJ, there are now 44 Paris Hilton stores worldwide, with products ranging from perfumes, to watches and jewelry to handbags and footwear where she earns upwards of $10 million a year in product sales. About her personal life, in her New York Post interview, she revealed, "I'm single and I've never been happier." Of course, she shares her Los Angeles home with seven dogs, three cats, four ferrets, three flying squirrels, one pony and pet a pig she named Princess Pigelette.
