Paris Hilton Speaks Out Against AI Deepfake Porn, Calls It a Growing Threat to Women Everywhere
Paris Hilton Backs DEFIANCE Act as She Warns AI Deepfake Porn Is Victimizing Women at ScaleJanuary 22, 2026
Paris Hilton is using her voice for something far bigger than celebrity headlines. The media personality and activist appeared at Capitol Hill this week to speak out against AI-generated deepfake pornography, calling it one of the most dangerous and rapidly growing forms of online abuse targeting women and girls.
AI-generated deepfake pornography is “the newest form of victimization happening at scale, to your daughters, your sisters, your friends and neighbors,” Paris Hilton said on Thursday as she spoke in support of the DEFIANCE Act. https://t.co/Zt3qgYaESx pic.twitter.com/0zCbZudl8Y

Standing alongside lawmakers and advocates, Paris delivered a powerful message: this isn’t a niche internet problem anymore — it’s happening at scale, and it’s destroying lives.
“The Newest Form of Victimization”
During the press conference, Paris described AI-generated deepfake pornography as a modern form of exploitation that affects ordinary women, not just public figures.
She emphasized that victims are often:
Daughters
Sisters
Friends
Neighbors
People who never consented, never participated, and never imagined their faces could be digitally manipulated into explicit content and spread online without control.
Her warning was clear: technology is moving faster than the laws meant to protect people from it.
What Is the DEFIANCE Act?
Paris was speaking in support of the DEFIANCE Act, proposed legislation designed to protect victims of non-consensual deepfake sexual content. The act aims to:
Give victims stronger legal rights
Allow faster removal of harmful content
Hold creators and distributors accountable
Address AI-driven abuse before it becomes irreversible
Lawmakers supporting the bill argue that existing laws were not built for the age of generative AI — and that victims are currently left with few real options.
Why Paris Hilton’s Voice Matters Here
This isn’t the first time Paris Hilton has spoken publicly about abuse, exploitation, and lack of accountability. Over the years, she has become increasingly vocal about trauma, consent, and the systems that fail to protect vulnerable people.
Her presence at Capitol Hill wasn’t symbolic — it was personal.
Paris stressed that deepfake abuse doesn’t require fame. All it takes is a photo, an AI tool, and malicious intent. Once the content is out there, the damage is nearly impossible to undo.
A Growing Crisis in the AI Era
Experts and advocates warn that AI-generated deepfake pornography is becoming easier to create, harder to trace, and faster to spread. Women are disproportionately targeted, and victims often face:
Emotional trauma
Reputational damage
Professional consequences
Long-term mental health impact
Paris’ statement highlights a growing concern: without urgent legal intervention, this form of abuse could become normalized.
A Broader Cultural Shift
The press conference also reflects a larger cultural reckoning around AI ethics, consent, and digital responsibility. As generative technology becomes more powerful, public figures like Paris are pushing lawmakers to act before harm becomes unmanageable.
This isn’t about censorship — it’s about protection.
Final Thoughts
Paris Hilton’s message on Capitol Hill was direct and impossible to ignore. AI deepfake pornography isn’t a futuristic fear — it’s a present-day crisis affecting real people right now.
By supporting the DEFIANCE Act, she’s calling for accountability in an era where technology has outpaced empathy — and reminding everyone that innovation without protection can be just as dangerous as silence.
