Paris Hilton might be able to sympathise with Mitt Romney when it comes to being secretly recorded. We found out that there is some audio of Paris talking negatively about gay men.
While on a taxi ride in NYC during Fashion Week she was secretly recorded as calling gay men “disgusting” and says most of them “probably have AIDS". Nice.
While in the cab she tells her friend, a gay man,
“They’re disgusting… and, dude, most of them probably have AIDS.”
“I would be so scared if I was a gay guy… you’ll, like, die of AIDS."
As GossipCop reported, her rep has released a statement on her comments saying,
“Paris Hilton’s comments were to express that it is dangerous for anyone to have unprotected sex that could lead to a life threatening disease.”
“The conversation became heated, after a close gay friend told her in a cab ride, a story about a gay man who has AIDS and is knowingly having unprotected sex.”
“He also discussed a website that encourages random sex by gay men with strangers. As she was being shown the website her comments were in reference to those people promoting themselves on the site. The cab driver who recorded this, only provided a portion of the conversation.
“It was not her intent to make any derogatory comments about all gays. Paris Hilton is a huge supporter of the gay community and would never purposefully make any negative statements about anyone’s sexual orientation.”
Interesting... now she has some explaining to do, but after all it's Paris Hilton - there's no way she hates gays.
Listen to the audio here.
