Paris Hilton tops annual list of highest-paid socialites

In 2022 it looked like the socialite’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, she was back on top. People With Money reports on Friday (November 22) that Hilton is the highest-paid socialite in the world, pulling in an astonishing $82 million between October 2023 and October 2024, a nearly $50 million lead over her closest competition.

People With Money’s factors

In compiling this yearly list, the magazine considers factors such as upfront pay, profit participation, residuals, endorsements and advertising work.

The American socialite-heir has an estimated net worth of $245 million. She owes her fortune to smart stock investments, substantial property holdings, lucrative endorsement deals with CoverGirl cosmetics. She also owns several restaurants (the “Fat Hilton Burger” chain) in Washington, a Football Team (the “New York Angels”), has launched her own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderhilton - US), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Paris) and a fashion line called “Paris Hilton Seduction”.

The ranking is significant for many Paris fans, who have been waiting for her triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
