The highlight event of 2023 has finally come and gone. The Las Vegas Grand Prix weekend garnered attention from all across the world as the inaugural race commenced its festivities in the Formula 1 calendar. Several high-profile celebrities were spotted in the ‘Sin City’ over the course of the weekend. Paris Hilton, the famous American socialite and social media influencer, was also seen enjoying the sport in Vegas. Hilton, however, gave the internet a ‘golden moment’ when she walked into the F1 afterparty that has zero attendance.

Paris Hilton was slated to perform a DJ set at the F1 race afterparty. A video, which has gone viral now, shows the 42-year-old walking into the party room in a shimmering racecar driver jumpsuit. But it further depicts Hilton, upon entering the room, lifting her matching sunglasses and looking at the empty room. This video was posted by the popular Instagram account Real Vegas Locals.

The account later clarified how the blame over the lack of a commendable crowd could be assigned to the F1 officials, rather than assigning it to Hilton. A later comment by the original account on the same post spoke about it [as reported by the Independent]

People outside of Vegas keep thinking this is a diss at Paris. It is not. She’s a very frequent visitor to Las Vegas and we absolutely LOVE her, This was a diss at F1, Vegas locals had to deal with F1 construction and drama for a year and were so over it. So it was funny that there was no one there at F1 after party, not Paris Hilton’s DJ moment.

Hilton later posted multiple pictures from this particular DJ set which depicted a lot more people than the aforementioned video. These pictures suggest that the after-party did manage to gather people for Hilton’s performance. However, the internet will never forget the hilarious moment of Hilton being visibly confused at the lack of a good crowd.
