X, the company formerly known as Twitter, has made a special revenue sharing deal with Paris Hilton and her media company, 11:11. It even includes a custom hashtag for a word that Hilton has been trying to popularize since at least 2019: “sliving.”
A combination of the words “slaying” and “living,” sliving is supposed to be Hilton’s new “that’s hot,” her catchphrase that was inescapable in the early 2000s. Now the year is 2023, and Linda Yaccarino, fresh from her interview on the Code stage, is posting “#sliving” to a site called X.
Here’s what Hilton and X’s partnership entails, according to company spokesperson Joe Benarroch:
The platform recently started sharing an unspecified percentage of revenue from ads that appear next to posts from paid, verified users. Hilton’s financial arrangement with X — which appears to be the first of its kind under the Musk regime — works differently, according to Benarroch. When I asked him over email how Hilton’s deal differed from the existing creator payout program, he said it’s a “different partnership” that will last for two years.
