Paris Hilton He has more than 25 million followers on instagramand has caused a sensation by publishing a series of photos taken in 2006, which show her with Britney Spears.

Not satisfied with this, the socialite went to his account x (before Twitter) to publish a video in which she appears walking down the street, while a male voice is heard saying: “I remember in 2004, or around that time, that she took her camera, taking a photo of herself. I didn’t even know what she was a selfie. All the things people are doing today with social media, the first person was Paris Hilton“. She also wrote: “In the 2000s, I invented the selfie. What have they done with my invention since then?!

In 2017 Paris Hilton was interviewed for the magazine Wand commented that since she was a child she had been fascinated by taking photos: “If a beeper I had a camera, I would have made one selfie with the. I think I have one selfie from when I was little, like with a disposable camera.” Despite the fact that millions of people around the world take these types of photographs every day, Hilton’s “title” has been questioned, since The New York Times mentioned Robert Cornelius as the first to make a photographic self-portrait, using a daguerreotype.

Paris included Britney Spears in those selfies because they have been very good friends ever since. The pop princess mentioned Hilton in several passages in her memoir The Woman In Mesilencing the rumors that the two only met during the time in which the singer had an emotional crisis: “One of the kindest people to me when I really needed it was Paris Hilton. Many Americans despised her for considering her a party girl, but I found her elegant… She was very affectionate with me… We started partying together. She encouraged me to try to have a good time for the first time in a long time.”

But apart from taking selfies, Paris does not stop showing off his role as a DJ. He recently looked spectacular – with an outfit that combined the futuristic with the sporty – at a party that took place in Las Vegas, on the occasion of the Formula 1 Grand Prix. Among the songs in his set, he stood out “I Don’t Care”of Pop Icon.
