Paris Hilton DJ

Hilton’s career as a DJ is a relentless grind. She is on the road 250 days a year, she says, and her team books her until 4:00 a.m. whenever they can. “As a businesswoman, I want to get the biggest fee possible, so I want to go to the places where they have a budget and it’ll be worth my time,” she says.

However, her Amnesia residency came to an abrupt end in early 2018 considering that she is not an actual DJ. Her night, Foam & Diamonds began looking for a new home.
