The Sandbox announced that it has partnered with the American celebrity Paris Hilton to build her Malibu Mansion in the Metaverse. 

With Hilton’s firm 11:11 Media, they are bringing new opportunities for her fans and community to connect with the celebrity in the virtual Malibu Mansion. 

In the virtual mansion, Hilton will host virtual experiences and social events and invite her fans to join, including rooftop parties and an upcoming Halloween party. The experiences will feature 11 new Sandbox avatars representing Paris Hilton’s various personalities.


‘I am beyond excited to expand Paris World further into the metaverse. In collaboration with my amazing partner The Sandbox, my team is dedicated to building an incredible real-life experience for my fans,’ said Hilton.


‘We’re pleased to give a warm welcome to Paris Hilton, the queen of the metaverse. The Sandbox provides a creative space that allows anyone to let their imagination come to life, and Paris Hilton is building a glamorous fantasy land filled with virtual parties and diverse entertainment attractions from her universe,’ said Sebastien Borget, the co-founder of The Sandbox.


Hilton is a self-described entrepreneur, DJ, and OG crypto queen who is also one of the earliest investors in the crypto space when she started investing in crypto back in 2016. Plus, she has been listed by Forbes as one of the top 50 most influential NFT personalities.

 
In April 2021, Hilton collaborated with designer Blake Kathryn to launch an NFT collection which included 11 NFTs such as ‘Hummingbird in my metaverse’, ‘Legend of love’. Among them, their ‘Iconic Crypto Queen’ NFT sold for US $ 1.1 million. In the same year, she also hosted a New Year’s party and created Pari World in the Roblox Metaverse.

Hilton said she views the Metaverse as ‘as the future of partying, going out, interacting with people and being social.’
