Perez Hilton's bloodied appearance during a disturbing TikTok livestream has prompted online claims that the celebrity blogger's crisis somehow mirrors imagery from Ariana Grande's 'petal' music video, but the supposed connection remains unsubstantiated.
Hilton was taken to hospital after Miami-Dade authorities responded to multiple reports of a man livestreaming acts of self-harm on Tuesday, 4 Aug. The sheriff's office did not initially identify him, but Hilton's representatives subsequently acknowledged that the circulating footage involved their client and asked for privacy while his condition was being confirmed.
