As you’ve likely heard by now, Perez Hilton was hospitalized on Tuesday night following what appeared to be a mental health crisis at his home.
Hilton seemingly engaged in self-harm with a knife during a TikTok livestream, a situation that had many commenters expressing concern for his three children
Police reported that the kids were not in the home at the time, but we learned today that they fled the house just moments before their father began to harm himself.
That news comes courtesy of a statement from Hilton’s family that was posted to his website moments ago:
“Just minutes before the public livestream incident, Perez’s children, niece, and sister were inside the home,” the family wrote, adding:
“When it became clear that Perez was experiencing a severe mental health crisis and harming himself, they immediately fled to protect the children from witnessing any further trauma.
“Our highest priority right now is helping the children begin to heal from what they experienced. An important part of that process is allowing them to safely return home and begin rebuilding a sense of security and normalcy.”
Perez’s loved ones concluded with a plea for privacy, writing:
“For the children’s safety, privacy, and well-being, we respectfully ask members of the media, paparazzi, content creators, and the public to leave the area surrounding the family’s home and not return.
“Please allow his children the privacy and space they need during this unimaginably difficult time.”
While we’re sure everyone wants what’s best for Perez’s three kids — ages 13, 12, and 9 — many have pointed out that his family’s plea for privacy is somewhat ironic.
After all, Hilton made a name for himself as one of the most ruthless tabloid journalists in the game, often violating the privacy of celebrities in shocking fashion.
One such celebrity was model Ireland Baldwin, who shared her feelings toward Hilton in a scathing Instagram Story:
“Perez Hilton has [publicly] humiliated my family for years,” Ireland wrote (via Entertainment Weekly). “[He has] sexualized me from a young age, commented on my weight and body (as a child), made unforgivable comments about people in my family, drew j!zz [sic] coming out of my mom’s and friend’s mouths, and has always been a despicable human being.”
She continued, “But his children deserve better and a healthy father and I am so sad for all of them. I hope he gets the help he needs and heals.”
While it’s still unclear what may have caused the incident, insiders have indicated that Hilton has been struggling financially since relocating to Miami from Las Vegas earlier this year.
If you or someone you know is struggling or in crisis, help is available. Call or text 988 or chat 988lifeline.org.

Long before he entered the political arena, Donald Trump’s hair was the stuff of legend.
Like your Aunt Gladys before him, the man picked one outrageous style in the ’70s and stuck with it through the decades, changes in fashion and aesthetics be damned.
So when Trump flaunted a new ‘do during a speaking engagement in Las Vegas on Wednesday, the change did not go unnoticed.
Yes, the president debuted what appeared to be a noticeably fuller, brighter head of hair, prompting an avalanche of reactions across social media.
The new look was so dramatic that many online immediately began speculating about whether Trump had changed his grooming routine—or whether he was wearing a wig.
Trump’s signature comb-over looked considerably more voluminous than it had during appearances earlier in the week.
The new lustrous mane quickly went viral, with critics and supporters alike weighing in.
One X user joked, “He’s wearing a man-wig. How very… gender affirming of him” (via Radar Online).
Another quipped, “No American president has ever projected insecurity like this before. The huge combover, the heavy makeup, the shoe lifts, & now a wig?”
Others poked fun at the hairstyle by comparing it to a “weave” or even a “ferret.”
Not everyone was critical, however.
Some Trump supporters praised the apparent makeover, with one popular pro-Trump account writing, “This is proof that President Trump is aging in reverse. His hair looks absolutely amazing today.”
The speculation comes just days after photos and video of Trump boarding Air Force One spread widely online.
Strong winds lifted his trademark comb-over, exposing more of his scalp than is typically visible and reigniting years-old jokes and rumors about whether the president wears a hairpiece.
Those clips circulated heavily on social media before his Las Vegas appearance, making the apparent overnight transformation even more noticeable to many observers.
The White House has not commented on whether Trump changed his hairstyle or grooming routine.
Trump has been highly focused on aesthetics in recent months, as evidenced by the Reflecting Pool controversy and recent renovations at the White House.
It’s a bit of an odd choice at a time when the country is at war and millions are struggling to put food on the table.
But hey, at least other octogenarians can take heart in the knowledge that it’s never too late to switch up your look.

The reign of Miss North Carolina USA 2026 Brittany Boltinhouse is over.
In June, she made history as the first married woman and as the first woman of Honduran descent to hold the title.
Now, the Miss USA organization says that she has violated the standards of the pageant organization.
How so? It appears that her social media posts have come back to haunt her.
Boltinhouse has lost her crown
Just ahead of the Miss USA competition, CEO Thom Brodeur put out a release on Wednesday, August 5.
On Instagram, he revealed that Boltinhouse has been stripped of her crown.
No longer Miss North Carolina, she is accused of violating the organization’s standards.
Titles like Miss North Carolina USA, the organization reasons, are not “trinkets.”
Rather, they are investments of trust. Trust which, Brodeur explains, Boltinhouse has broken.
What did Boltinhouse do?
Brodeur’s statement did not explain the specific violations that cost Boltinhouse her crown.
However, the statement stated, very broadly, that the organization “does not tolerate racism, homophobia, transphobia, nor language that strips any person of their dignity.”
That is a very good policy — but does not specify which aspect of that she broke.
With exceptions of figures like Garrett Yrigoyen on The Bachelorette, very few scandals like these involve some sort of Macavity-from-Cats figure who has violated every rule in the book.
Mere weeks ago, however, an explosive report by the NC Beat revealed Boltinhouse’s troubling social media history.

Years of racist posts, it turns out
According to what are now widespread reports, Boltinhouse previously tweeted under an alias, Sosa the Stallion.
From 2017 until 2019, she allegedly repeatedly used the n-word.
On the plus side, she did not appear to be directly attacking individuals with the use of the slur. Her use in the sentences appears to have been for emphasis.
At the same time … the thing about slurs is that their use is almost always an automatic attack against the entire demographic to which they refer. Slurs are not merely rude words, they are loaded with troubling and violent histories.
Though Boltinhouse has also been accused of having been a vocal supporter of Donald Trump during his 2024 campaign, that does not appear to have been a factor.
Who is the new Miss North Carolina USA 2026?
In his statement, Brodeur emphasizes the need for compassion. He received praise for this in the comments.
He acknowledged that Boltinhouse has been “named, examined, and judged in public in a way that most of us would not survive.”
Boltinhouse entered the competition first representing the coastal city of Wilmington.
In her stead, Myla Hadley of the city of Charlotte will instead take on the title of Miss North Carolina USA 2026.
Haldey goes into this with the organization’s “full confidence and our support.”

As we previously reported, internet personality Perez Hilton seemed to engage in self-harm during a TikTok livestream on Tuesday night.
The 48-year-old brandished a knife and threatened suicide while seemingly covered in his own blood.
Hilton was rushed to a nearby hospital, and after days of speculation, we finally have some encouraging news about his condition.
In a statement released Wednesday, Perez’s loved ones confirmed that he is now able to communicate with them, calling the development a reason for hope as he continues receiving medical care.
“We can confirm that Perez is able to communicate, which has given our family hope,” the statement read (via TMZ).
The family went on to thank supporters for the outpouring of prayers and well wishes they’ve received over the past several days, while once again asking for privacy as Perez focuses on his recovery.
“We remain deeply grateful for the compassion, patience, and respect so many people have shown during this incredibly difficult time,” the statement continued.
“Please continue to keep Perez in your thoughts and prayers.”
The update comes less than 48 hours after emergency responders were called to Perez’s Miami-area home when viewers alerted authorities about a disturbing livestream.
He was transported to a local medical facility, where he has remained under medical care ever since. Authorities have confirmed that he was safely taken to the hospital, while his family has consistently emphasized that their priority is his well-being.
This is the second statement Perez’s family has released since the incident.
Their initial message confirmed only that he was receiving treatment and asked the public to respect his privacy while thanking fans for their support.
Wednesday’s update is the first indication that his condition has improved enough for him to communicate directly with loved ones.
The news has prompted an outpouring of relief across social media, with many fans expressing hope that Perez can now focus entirely on healing away from the public eye.
While his family has not shared additional details about his treatment or a possible timeline for his release, they made it clear that they’ll provide further updates if and when they’re able.
Speculation. about the cause of this mental health crisis remains rampant, with several sources claiming that Hilton had been dealing with financial woes in the
Whatever the case, at least we can take solace Perez is communicating with his family and those closest to him.
