US blogger Perez Hilton is recovering in hospital after members of the public reported that he had appeared to self-harm during a TikTok livestream. The Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office told US media that an individual had been “safely recovered” and taken to “a local hospital, where he is receiving medical attention”. In a statement issued to BBC News the Miami sheriff’s office did not name Hilton but confirmed they had attended to reports of a man harming himself. “Deputies quickly located the individual’s residence, where they spoke with family members on scene, and confirmed he was alone inside,” police said. Perez Hilton was a stage name he chose as a play on Paris Hilton, who was one of the most written about celebrities at the time.
