Paris Hilton says life was more fun before social media

Paris Hilton believes people had a lot more fun before social media existed.

The socialite says that now people are too busy glued to their phones.

''I'm actually happy I grew up before Instagram and all this, because back in New York, we used to have so much fun because no one had a camera out unless it was like, one of those disposable ones. So everyone was actually talking and having fun, dancing.

"And nowadays I feel like everyone is just always on their phone, they're texting, they're Snapping, taking pictures. Nobody really has a good time like they used to. So I'm happy that I got to live it before," Hilton told E! online.

 

The DJ, however, had previously said that social media has brought her closer to her fans.

"I'm constantly travelling; 250 days a year I'm on a plane, in a different country. So it gets really lonely sometimes. I love my fans just as much as they love me. I feel closer with them than I do most people that I know. They're really like my family," she said.
