Paris Hilton voted for Donald Trump

Socialite Paris Hilton says she contributed to business tycoon Donald Trump's victory in the US Presidential election.

On Thursday, Hilton appeared in an Australian TV interview to promote her latest fragrance "Gold Rush".

Asked if she voted for Trump, she laughed nervously before confirming the news. "I've known him since (I was) a little girl - so, yes," she said.

Last week, she was approached by a TMZ reporter and asked who she planned to vote for. She refused to reveal her mind.

"My mother told me to never talk about politics or money," Paris told tmz.com.

Earlier this year, a 2003 interview with Trump was uncovered in which he told Howard Stern that he first met Paris when she was 12 years old. He described her as "beautiful".
