See Paris Hilton work the DJ booth at a South Florida beach resort
Paris Hilton put on her glam DJ hat last Friday night to help out the family business.
The hotel heiress worked the tables at the beachside grand reopening of the Diplomat in Hollywood, which is now a Hilton property. The new mouthful of a name is Signia by Hilton Diplomat Beach Resort.
Originally opened in 1958 in a now-demolished building on the site, the current 1,000-room resort, which opened in 2002, now “offers a renewed vision for today’s traveler” thanks to an $80 million glow-up, according to promotional materials. New amenities include a sleek-meets-tropical space for coworking in the lobby, six updated dining venues and an adults-only pool and spa.
“The Diplomat has long been one of South Florida’s most iconic properties, and this transformation marks an important next chapter — not just for the hotel, but for Hilton’s continued growth in the region,” Chris Nassetta, president and CEO, said in a statement.
Hilton posted footage of her on the job in a black sparkly outfit, “sliving” in the DJ booth. FYI to non-millennials: That’s a term the original influencer made up, combining the words “slaying” and “living.”
The former “Simple Life” star dropped such remixes as “Unwritten” (Natasha Bedingfield), “How Deep is Your Love” (Calvin Harris & Disciples) and “Fergalicious” (Fergie.)
“Can’t wait to come back with the #CutesieCrew for family vacay!” read the caption regarding the freshly updated spot where rooms start at $388 a night.
The “crew” the 45-year-old was referring to are her two kids with husband, L.A. businessman Carter Reum, son Phoenix, 3, and daughter London, 2.
A fellow guest told the Miami Herald the party princess looked to be having a blast and gave a shoutout to her late paternal grandfather, Conrad Hilton, who founded the hotel chain in 1919. The former politician bought his first property, the Mobley, in Cisco, Texas, for $40,000, renting out rooms in eight-hour shifts.
Today, Hilton is one of the largest hotel chains in the world, with more than 8,000 properties in over 125 countries.
