Paris Hilton is an icon for a lot of reasons. She made her chihuahua Tinkerbell a household name. She told people to be hot, instead of being poor. And she even wrote the foreword for Betches’ Reality TV Textbook. So waking up to the news the unappreciated music legend, of previous bangers such as “Stars Are Blind” and “High Off My Love,” would at long last be releasing a sophomore album was a perfect start to the weekend (what, you actually work on Fridays?). She’s appeared on a few features and dropped a few singles over the years, most recently her collab with Sia on “Fame Won’t Love You” from Sia’s May 2024 album Reasonable Woman but that obviously wasn’t enough. Paris Hilton’s second album Infinite Icon is set to be released on September 6, 2024. While most of the details are still under wraps, here’s everything we know so far.
Although “Hot One” was originally planned to be a single for a forthcoming second LP back in 2023, Paris was so into the song when she heard the final product that she decided then and there to make it the genesis of her second album. She went back into the Hollywood studio on Sunset Boulevard where she created her “Hot One” masterpiece (that ofc ends in “That’s Hot”) to create three more tracks that will now feature on Infinite Icon. If you haven’t listened yet and your name is Britt, Chad, Tess, or Zane you’re going to be very excited.

If “Hot One” is any indication, Paris’ second album will be poppin’ with infectious party music sprinkled with a touch of the bubblegum pink flair that Paris is known for. Paris has spent the last decade building up a successful career as a DJ, so we can expect that influence to play a huge role in the tracks’ creative production. It’s worth noting that on Sia’s album, Paris went full-on ballad instead of untz untz, so she’s not tied to a singular sound. TLDR: we can likely expect big rave energy with perhaps some slower songs to make summertime sadness cool in the clerb.
The next single should be arriving to her grateful public in June 2024, just in time to vye for the song of the summer.
The tracklist is still under lock and key but based on her recent collabs Sia, Steve Aioki and Kim Petras feel like familiar faces that could make an appearance. She’s also reuniting with Nicole Richie soon on a TBD announced project… who’s to say that couldn’t include a song?
