What happened to Perez Hilton?
It was during the evening last Tuesday, August 4, that the blogger ended up hospitalized in a medical center in Miami, Florida. This after starring in an alarming live broadcast from social networks where he was seen bloodied and in possession of a knife.
The images showed Hilton completely naked, stained with what looked like his own blood and with cuts on his body and face, while users who witnessed his 'live' urged him to calm down and ask for help.
The live broadcast was recorded for just over 30 minutes, until it was abruptly ended and the communicator's account was deleted from the TikTok platform.
