Paris Hilton shows South Korea why she is the original influencer – and that she never turns down a selfie request
- Hilton created the blueprint for a new breed of celebrity who uses social media to gain attention, and then turn that attention into their own brand
- She was in Seoul for the weekend to release her luxury skincare line ProD.N.A.
While most of us are fixated on taking the perfect selfie, Paris Hilton is selfless with hers.
In Seoul last weekend for the South Korean release of her luxury skincare line ProD.N.A., which includes a rose water named Unicorn Mist, the hotel heiress turned singer, actress and business mogul proved she’ll never turn down a request for a fan photo.
Wearing a revealing black gown, Hilton lingered on stage for hours on Friday night after the launch party for her skincare line, as several hundred influencers and guests took turns to come forward for a selfie and a moment of her time.
She kept her sunglasses on despite the late hour, maybe hoping to hide the effects of a 16-hour time difference and two days packed with meetings, media and television spots, or maybe to protect her eyes from the barrage of flashing lights.
But her attention to each and every fan was undeniable. Hilton handed out compliments, flattered each fan, and offered numerous angles for a multitude of well-lit selfies.
In between photos Hilton danced and made song requests to the DJ to keep the mood up, never betraying her jet-lag, or the chaotic schedule that led up to the evening’s event. All for a line of fans that never seemed to end.
