Perez Hilton has shared dramatic photos from a recent hospital stay in Las Vegas for a mysterious medical emergency.
“March madness indeed! Have I got a story to tell,” Hilton, 47, hinted via Instagram on Saturday, March 21.
The former Celebrity Big Brother star included numerous alarming photos taken from his room at Clark County, Nevada’s Southern Hills Hospital and Medical Center.
The photos include a shot of multiple scars on his stomach — seemingly from stitches — and tubes in his nose and across his throat. Another shot shows Hilton staring directly into the camera while wearing an oxygen mask.

Hilton received an outpouring of support from his famous followers, including singer Bebe Rexha, The Real Housewives of Miami star Marysol Patton and RuPaul’s Drag Race legend Coco Montrese.
“Hope you’re okay honey,” Meghan McCain encouraged him.
“Wishing you a speedy recovery,” Francia Raisa wrote to Hilton, with America’s Next Top Model alum Kelly Cutrone adding, “Blessings Abound.”
In a second post, Hilton confirmed he was back at his Las Vegas home and promised to open up about his mysterious ailment soon.
“Before I tell you this I went through — soon, in full detail — I wanted to share something very important,” he narrated over clips of himself in his hospital bed. “When I moved to Las Vegas three years ago, I heard horror stories about the healthcare here. But I need to let everybody know that I went to Southern Hills Hospital and I received the best care there.”
Hilton shouted out several nurses and doctors who cared for him during his recent hospital stay, pointing out that he may not have survived without their professionalism.
“Everybody was amazing … Thank you all and, also, thank you to the Filipino community. So many of my nurses were Filipino,” he added. “I love you all and I thank you all so much. Every single person at Southern Hills Hospital in Las Vegas — I would not be home already, if it were not for you.”
He captioned the video, “You are angels, all of you at @southernhillshospitallv!”
“I hope you are ok,” former Girls Next Door star Holly Madison replied to Hilton’s video.
Us Weekly has reached out to Hilton’s representative for comment.
Hilton moved from Los Angeles to Las Vegas with his three children — Mario Armando, 13, Mia Alma, 10, and Mayte Amor, 8, — in January 2023. At the time, Hilton told Real Vegas Magazine that uprooting his entire family was “so hard,” especially since he had to sell his L.A. home and build a new one in Vegas.
“It was a real challenge to sell my home in LA, and I believe in being straightforward about it,” he explained. “At the same time, I was also managing the construction of a house in Las Vegas. It’s an experience that I won’t be repeating, but ultimately, everything turned out well, and I’m truly thankful for that.”
He went on, “Moving is tough, especially with kids! There’s so much to do – finding schools, doctors, dentists, and dealing with the DMV. Don’t even get me started on that lol. It took time, but seeing my kids happy in our new home made it all worth it. We love using our pool in Vegas, and we’re enjoying more family time together.”
