Paris Hilton is featured on heartbreaking new Sia song Fame Won't Love You ... trends now
Paris Hilton has featured on a heartbreaking new Sia song called Fame Won't Love You about the pain of being a celebrity.
The 43-year-old has always lived life in the glare of the public eye, from her teenage years as the wild child in a world-famous hotel family.
As she grew older, she and her friend Nicole Richie became pioneering reality stars on the runaway smash hit series The Simple Life.
Then when she was only 20 years old, she became a subject of notoriety and ridicule when her sex tape with her much older boyfriend Rick Salomon was leaked - an experience she has said gave her 'post-traumatic stress disorder.'
Now, on her new song with Sia, Paris sings shatteringly about trying to 'find validation for my futile existence' in the 'smiles' of the audience, only to discover that 'fame won't love you like a mother, like a father should.'

The chorus, which both women sing together, begins: 'Little dreams come crashing - let them wave in passing, 'cause fame won't love you like a mother, like a father should. And you may wish for Oscars, Grammys and blockbusters, 'cause fame won't love you like a brother, like a lover should.'
Fame Won't Love You is one of the songs in Sia's upcoming 10th studio album Reasonable Woman, which will be released in full on May 3.
