Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan were the it-girls of the iconic Y2K era, photographed on just about every tabloid cover as a pair of party-girl best friends. But in 2006, a video of Paris mocking Lindsay with a derogatory nickname took the internet by storm, and the two would soon plunge into a highly publicized feud. Hilton and Lohan's feud has sparked speculation for years. In this episode, we unpack their messy falling out – and what it says about the dark side of early 2000s Hollywood fame.

From backstage trash-talking to glamorous yacht photo shoots and a dramatic reality TV face-off, we'll peel back the layers of their feud.

Show notes

While we work on some new Even the Rich episodes, check out the very first episode of our other show, Even the Royals. It's all about the OG Richie: Marie Antoinette. Most people associate Marie Antoinette with towering wigs, bon bons, affairs, and the legendary “let them eat cake” line. And wasn’t she executed for living extravagantly while the French people were starving? The answer is no, no and no. The truth is way more complicated than cake. We’re talking pornographic cartoons, diamond necklace cons, and one shocking accusation that will seal Marie’s fate. In this two-part series, we’ll tell you about one of history’s greatest smear campaigns - one that had deadly consequences.
