NAKED TRUTH When was Paris Hilton’s sex tape leaked? How does Paris Hilton feel about the sex tape?
PARIS Hilton's life changed forever when a sex tape made with her ex-boyfriend was released to the public in the early 2000s.
More than 15 years later, RHOBH's Kyle Richards has revealed her family was "devastated" when her niece Paris Hilton's sex video, featuring Paris and her former lover's intimate rendezvous, was leaked.
When did Paris Hilton make a sex tape?
Paris Hilton's pornographic video - titled 1 Night in Paris - was exposed in 2003.
She was 19 when the video was filmed in 2001 with her ex-boyfriend.
In 2013, Paris claimed she didn't make any money from her infamous video.
"I never made a dollar," she said when she first spoke out about the scandal.
Who leaked it and who was it with?
Her ex-boyfriend Rick Salomon leaked the infamous tape online in 2003.
The celebrity sex tape, which was made in 2001, features Paris Hilton and American poker player Rick Salomon.
The pair were dating when the footage was leaked.
In April 2004, Rick started distributing the sex tape through Red Light District Video, an adult film company, with the title 1 Night in Paris.
The sex tape was released onto a porn site on June 15, 2004.
The video was promoted by Hollywood's sex tape broker Kevin Blatt.
Rick Salomon later filed a lawsuit against the Hilton family.
He had accused them of tainting his reputation after they suggested he took advantage of her.
Paris later followed up with a countersuit and accused him for selling the rights to the tape to a porn company.
She also sued the company for $30million for violation of privacy, illegal business practices and emotional distress before settling out of court.
What is Rick Salomon known for?
Rick is known for being Pamela Anderson's third (and fourth) husband.
They got married twice, once in 2007 and then again in 2014.
However, legal documents leaked after their divorce, revealing that Pamela had filed (and was granted) a restraining order against her ex, who she claims tried to strangle her during sex, according to TMZ.
Rick had reportedly called her names such as "slut" and "crack whore."
What did Kyle Richards say about the sex tape leak?
Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Kyle Richards has opened up about how her family felt when Paris' sex tape was leaked.
"We were devastated. It was horrible," the 51-year-old Bravo star said during Wednesday's episode of Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen.
The American actress and socialite is the half-sister of Paris' mom, Kathy Hilton.
When the 52-year-old show host questioned Kyle on what she thought the sex tape would do to Paris' career, she said it would "ruin" it.
How does Paris Hilton feel about the sex tape?
According to E News, Paris revealed in the 2018 documentary The American Meme that she "was so embarrassed" after video leaked.
"I felt like everyone on the street was laughing at me. I literally could not walk down the street because I felt like every single person had watched it and seen me naked and was talking behind my back.
"It was like being raped. It felt like I'd lost part of my soul and been talked about in such cruel and mean ways.
"Literally wanted to die at some points."
In 2014, Hilton told the Telegraph: "It was devastating because that was someone I was with for a few years.
“I don’t think I’ll ever be able to fully trust any man again after that.
"It was just the most hurtful and awful thing that anyone could do to a little girl. I was very young, it wasn’t my fault.”
In Paris Hilton: A Biography, she admitted: "I don't remember filming it in the first place."
Who is she with now?
Paris is currently dating investor and tech startup entrepreneur Carter Reum.
The pair reportedly "met through friends" and started dating at the end of last year.
He is a graduate of Columbia University and Harvard Business School.
Carter founded M13, an investment firm and co-founded the liquor company VEEV Spirts alongside his brother Courtney.
He has also penned a book with his brother called Shortcut Your Startup: Speed Up Success with Unconventional Advice from the Trenches.
This is Paris' first relationship since splitting with actor Chris Zylka in November 2018.
Paris and her ex fiance announced their engagement in January 2018, but parted ways 10 months later.
Earlier this year, the heiress slammed her ex-fiance Chris and said their broken engagement was the "best decision" she's ever made.
Paris also once dated Backstreet Boy Nick Carter and Good Charlotte's Benji Madden.
The iconic socialite celebrated her 39th birthday in February with her friends Kim and Kourtney Kardashian, model Heidi Klum, singer Rita Ora and rappers French Montana and Machine Gun Kelly.
