Description
Perez Hilton Steps Behind The Rope. Legend, The Original, Show Respect where Respect is Due, Perez Hilton. Born Mario Armando Lavandeira in Miami, the son of two Cuban Immigrants, we start at the beginning. Perez explains what childhood was like as an overweight closeted gay man obsessed with pop culture. He moved to NYC after high school to attend NYU and pursue a career in acting. Sixteen years ago, shortly after NYU, he started a "little Blog” called Perez Hilton. The blog quickly took off after he was the first to “out” Brad and Angelina and coin the term “Brangelina”. The Original Influencer, before influencers were influencers, prior to TMZ and most forms of social media that exist in the world today, Perez discusses what life what like after that initial explosion, what it is like to be hated by many, sued by a bunch, and left still standing all these years later. Perez discusses his love of celebrity and pop culture and how he coined his moniker thanks to Miss Paris Hilton. Speaking of Paris, we discuss her early career, Kim Kardashian, their friendship and ever changing relationship, the influence of Kayne, and where he thinks each stand in the pop culture hall of fame. Perez opens up about the rise, height, and fall of his friendship with Lady Gaga. We discuss other legends like the Queen of the World Madonna, Celine Dion, and Jennifer Lopez . We discuss what he has learned throughout the years and how he handles being confronted by celebrities he has been mean to in the past such as Jennifer Anniston and their infamous parking garage run in. Finally, we touch upon Perez’s new forthcoming book, TMI: My Life In Scandal and what is next for the man behind the famous name.
