Perez Hilton
Born on March 23, 1978, in Miami, Perez Hilton has worked across a notably varied set of roles — blogger, writer, journalist, actor, and announcer — making him a figure whose career resists easy categorization.
Hilton attended New York University, which provided the educational foundation for the work that followed. His occupations span both text-based and performance-oriented formats: on one side, blogging, writing, and journalism; on the other, acting and announcing. That combination places him in an unusual position among media figures, since the skills those roles demand are quite different from one another. He has conducted his work in English, and he holds United States citizenship.
As a blogger, writer, and journalist, Hilton has operated in spaces where commentary and reporting overlap. His work as an actor and announcer sits alongside that written and editorial output rather than standing apart from it. The breadth of occupations attached to his name — spanning roles that involve publishing, performance, and public address — reflects a career that has moved across more than one medium. Born in Miami and educated at New York University, Hilton's profile as a United States-based media figure rests on that combination of blogging, journalism, writing, acting, and announcing.
Quotes by Perez Hilton

The best way for me to discover new music is through YouTube, and through my readers emailing me stuff.

Heavy metal is not usually my thing. But I love everything. I love good music, period.

I love to get music sent as an MP3 attachment because that way I can preview the song in my e-mail, without even having to download it to my iTunes. I prefer that over having to go to MySpace, Facebook or YouTube.

I'll never take any credit for Lady Gaga or Katy Perry's success. But I knew within a month that Gaga was going to be huge.

I was fat and ugly and never 'wanted to hook up - for a gay guy that's unheard of. I was like a monk or a priest.
