Paris Hilton fears she could be targeted by Isis because of her fame

Paris Hilton is concerned about becoming the target of a terrorist group such as Isis after a spate of attacks across the globe. 

Hilton, who is currently mid-way through a DJ residency in Ibiza, described her concerns in an interview with Diario de Ibiza. 

When asked if she felt safe travelling so frequently after a number of terror attacks, Hilton claimed she could be more at risk because of her profile. 

According to a translation obtained by the Independent, she replied: “It's horrible with everything that is going on now... The attacks in Nice and Germany are horrible, it's something disgusting and scary. These are things that cross my mind since I travel a lot and when I think about it, I feel scared." 

“I'm moving around and travelling from country to country, I'm a famous person who can clearly be the target of a terrorist attack and this is sometimes terrifying.” 

In the same interview, Hilton appeared to defend longtime family friend and “extraordinary businessman”, Donald Trump.
