Paris Hilton's simple life includes sliving it up at the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards

The "I'm Free" singer was one of the many stars to descend upon the UBS Arena in New York Sept. 11, stepping out in a dripping silver gown and bringing her sister Nicky Hilton Rothschild—rocking a red dress—as her plus one.

It's just the latest way the sisters are bonding over music, as Nicky revealed that her family—which includes kids Lily-Grace, 8, Teddy, 7, and Chasen, 2—are super fans of Paris' tracks. 

"My daughters are Paris’ biggest fans," Nicky exclusively told E! News correspondent Will Marfuggi on the red carpet. "They’re huge fangirls for Paris."

Calling her nieces "so cute," Paris admitted that her son Phoenix, 19 months, is just as obsessed with her beats. 

"Phoenix just started dancing," she added in the interview airing Sept. 11, "so he’s always dancing to all the songs."

Of course, the best moments are when their little ones come together. 

"It’s really special to see all the cousins growing up together, the next generation," Paris shared, while Nicky added, "It’s so fun having all the babies together. Love it."

Paris' MTV VMAs appearance comes less than a week after the release of Infinite Icon, her first album in 18 years.

For her highly-anticipated follow-up to 2006's Paris, the Simple Life star tapped Megan Thee Stallion, Meghan Trainor, Rina Sawayama, Maria Becerra for collabs, as well as hitmaker Sia to help her produce the 12-track record.  

"It's been such an incredible year and a half making this album with Sia," Paris previously told E! News. "She is so brilliant and we really made something that is so iconic and epic."

In fact, her music video for "BBA" recently brought a whole new meaning to the phrase "that's hot" when a trailer on set caught fire. Luckily, no one was hurt in the incident.

"It was an explosion in there," Paris recounted. "I was in shock and thought people were trying to prank me when they came up and told me everything was gone."

While she was "grateful that no one was in the trailer because it was scary," Paris also understood that "the show must go on."

She added, "I powered through."

And for those who can't get enough of "BBA," which stands for "Bad B---h Academy," both Paris and her collaborator Megan Thee Stallion are crossing paths again at the MTV VMAs, with the rapper serving as both show host and performer.
