Yep. Paris Hilton isn't some dumb bimbo - that was a VERY carefully manufactured image she used to escape her controlling family. They had a lot of money and very good lawyers, and she knew they could send her back to the abuse ranch at any time, so she cozied up to paparazzis, tabloids, and D-list celebrities. She fabricated an entire lifestyle as a socialite to make sure she had a camera on her at all times so that if she disappeared, it would make national news.

Edit: Also, these so-called "treatment centers" are often used to target gay kids or those who try to leave oppressive religions. They should be re-branded as conversion centers.

She has a documentary on youtube. It's pretty interesting. You can watch her get anxious/triggered and then the baby voice kicks in.

She's coping.

This is brilliant. I'm so sorry for her, that she had to endure that and had to put her entire life out there for protection in visibility. I don't know much about her personally, but her testimony to congress was very well done and her activism against these centers has made me respect her so much.
