Perez Hilton is an author, TV personality and columnist who joins me on the podcast to talk about his career in the media and how breaking the rules of journalism, especially in the realm of celebrity media, led to them being re-written.

Perez's blog perezhilton.com became a phenomenon in the early 2000s and made Perez, born Mario Lavandeira, a celebrity in his own right.

In this episode of the podcast @perezhilton and I discuss:

  • How a series of false-starts and jobs that made him miserable led him to create his own website.
  • How he navigated the early years; finding the hottest news story and also becoming the hottest news story.
  • The mistakes he made, and had to learn from, along the way.
  • How he measured and celebrated his successes as and when they happened.
  • How he has had to evolve as media platforms have appeared.
  • Why negative press and interaction isn't something that worries him - in fact he welcomes it.

Perez's book TMI: My Life in Scandal is available now.
