happy anniversary!
Paris Hilton celebrated the 18th anniversary of her iconic daddy shot with Lindsay Lohan and Britney Spears.
“Eighteen years ago today, this photo became an era-defining moment,” she said. wrote via Instagram She shared the photo on Wednesday.
“@BritneySpears, @LindsayLohan and I are the holy trinity. Soon to be iconic ✨ #LovesIt 💖 #Sliving #Y2K 🚙💋”
The snap was originally taken in November 2006 while leaving a party at the Beverly Hills Hotel in Los Angeles.
The three were seen laughing together in the car, but Hilton revealed in 2021 that the moment was actually awkward because she and Lohan had been feuding.
Currently 43 years old “This is Paris, the simple life,” she explained on the podcast. The photo was reportedly taken after Lohan's father asked her about a video in which she claims Hilton punched her.
She said, “[Spears and I] As I was walking to my car, a large group of paparazzi suddenly swarmed me. As we were walking to the car, Lindsey came over. It was a little awkward because there was some drama going on. ”
“At that moment, I saw Lindsey walking towards us and I said, 'Why don't you ask her?' ” the “Stars Is Blind” singer recalled.
“And Lindsey said…'No, Paris would never hit me, I've known her since I was 15.' It was basically just a matter of admitting her actions. You know, it was very awkward to be asked that question and it was just weird how it happened.”
Hilton added that the next thing she looked back, she saw the now 38-year-old “Mean Girls” star getting into her car.
“I was being polite because we didn't get along,” Hilton said. “It was really hard just to get out of there because there were so many cameras and you couldn't see anything.”
The “Simple Life” alum claimed that she and Lohan were previously “close friends,” but “she hurt me terribly, betrayed my trust, and caused a lot of drama.”
“So we weren't friends anymore, it was more like an on-and-off friendship,” she added.
However, the mother of two pointed out that the rift could be due to age. Lohan was 20 years old and Hilton 25 at the time.
“But now that I think about it, we were really young and immature. Especially in the L.A. scene, where the media is constantly trying to stir things up and make things worse than they really are, we put that out in the public eye. “It was like a high school drama to live in,” Hilton explained.
“Back then, the media really enjoyed seeing girls fighting each other.”
This isn't the first time Hilton has celebrated the now-legendary snap. She recreated her 2019 snap Along with a Queen Elizabeth II impersonator and a Britney Spears lookalike.
