Paris Hilton has said from the beginning that her sex tape—filmed when she was 19 and her boyfriend Rick Solomon was 33, by the way—had been leaked and distributed without her consent. But that didn’t stop Pink from making fun of it in the video for her 2006 song, “Stupid Girls.” (The song title is context enough, right?) Well now, in a passage from her new book, Paris: The Memoir, Hilton is publicly taking the singer to task for mocking what essentially boils down to analog revenge porn.
After describing how Solomon (allegedly) pressured her into filming the sexual encounter and then profited from the tape’s release, Hilton’s book details the relentless public shaming that followed. Pink’s song, with lyrics belittling “porno paparazzi girls” and a music video that included a scene parodying the grainy sex tape, is just one particularly poignant example.
