Celebrity blogger Perez Hilton was taken to a Miami-area hospital this week after deputies responded to reports that he was livestreaming self-harm on TikTok. The Miami-Dade Sheriff's Office confirmed the response but has not officially named him in its statements.
The incident unfolded on Tuesday, 4 August 2026, when the sheriff's office received multiple calls about someone 'livestreaming acts of self-harm on social media'. Deputies located the residence, spoke with family members on scene, and confirmed the individual was alone inside before he was taken by Miami-Dade Fire Rescue to hospital for treatment. Hilton, 48, recently returned to his native Miami after several years based in Las Vegas.
