Paris Hilton Claims Paris Jackson Was Named After Her
Thursday, July 23rd, 2009Oh, man. This is exactly what I was dreading. Pretty much since Paris Jackson was born, I was all like, “Please God, say she wasn’t named after Paris Hilton?”
But no.
Paris spent Wednesday night at the LA premiere of her new MTV documentary, Paris Not France, and had this to say to the reporter from Extra:
“My mom and Michael went to high school together and they were best friends since they were 13,” Paris explains. “So I grew up knowing Michael very well and when he had his daughter, he always loved the name Paris and grew up being an uncle to me. So he asked my mom if it was okay and of course she said yes and I think she’s such a beautiful little girl and I’m proud we have the same name.”
Oh, and for what it’s worth, the only celebs at this premiere were Paris, Nicky and the Hilton ‘rents. Not sure if that’s ‘cuz no one else was invited or ‘cuz no one else came, but I thought it was worth mentioning.
