Gossip: Paris Hilton
Hilton was caught on tape calling gay men “disgusting.”
Paris Hilton was caught on tape last week calling gay men “disgusting” and saying “most of them probably have AIDS,” said RadarOnline.com. The celebrity heiress made the comments to a friend while in the back of a New York City cab, unaware that the driver was secretly recording their conversation. “Eww, eww,” said Hilton, upon learning how gay-cruising app Grindr lets users locate each other for random hookups. “Gay guys are the horniest people in the world.” Hilton’s rep said she was referring only to gay men who intentionally infect others with HIV.
