Perez Hilton’s Family Shares an Update
The statement, posted to Hilton’s website today (August 5), thanked supporters for the outpouring of concern, love, and prayers.
It read:
“We can confirm that Perez is receiving medical care, and our family’s focus right now is on his well-being.
We kindly ask that you respect Perez’s privacy, as well as the privacy of his family, during this difficult time.
If and when we are able to share any updates, we will do so with everyone as soon as we can.
Thank you for your compassion, understanding, and continued support.
The update follows the shocking events of Tuesday, August 4.
Per PEOPLE, Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office deputies responded after viewers reported a TikTok livestream in which the 48-year-old Pop culture polarizer appeared to harm himself.
Authorities said Hilton was alone inside the property. Officers initially stepped back while continuing to monitor the situation, explaining that crisis interventions can benefit from “time, distance, and opportunities for communication.”
Hilton was later safely recovered and transported by Miami-Dade Fire Rescue to a local hospital.
The Sheriff’s Office Crisis Response Unit and licensed mental health professionals also provided support to his family.
Before the family update, managers Dante Rusciolelli and Rebekah Kochan had said they were unable to reach him directly despite repeated attempts.
Their latest message makes clear that the focus is now on Hilton’s care and recovery.
My manfriend matched with him on OKCupid back in the mid-2010’s. He boasted on his profile having a big dong. I feel for his kids but he partook into, and became mega rich fast from, the dehumanization of Britney Spears in ’09. That that woman is still alive is a miracle.
“If this were real, social media would have yanked that video faster than a toddler snatches candy because they’re so great at spotting real drama. But nah, this guy’s just tripping—either on drugs or attention starring in his own scripted reality TV mess, crafted tighter than a Netflix binge, all for those sweet, sweet clicks and camera angles. Authenticity? Nah, who needs that when you’ve got a storyline this good and insurance coverage?
Straight up fake af .. ✔️
Too many mfs out here playin’ the mental health card just to get that pity and skip work. Nah, they ain’t sick 🥱 they just straight-up lazy, scared to put in no grind. Stop actin’ like you got problems when all you got is excuses. Mental health ain’t no damn free ticket to sit on your ass and do nothing. Real ones struggle in silence, but these clowns just wanna dodge the hustle and ride the sympathy wave. Get up, get real, or shut the f*** up.
MK Ultra krappp..either meth made him crazy or he’s just thirsty for likes. And the blood? Nowhere to be seen. That knife’s faker than Nicki Minaj’s BBL—100% plastic, zero danger.
Lol.. yeah right. This man is a drama queen and yall react to his video for clout..
I watched it twice, and if anybody else watched it closely, you will see that he keeps dipping the knife into something and then all of a sudden he’s full of red dye I don’t believe that he was bleeding.. 😂
