Kathy Hilton has proved to everyone that luscious lips are a 24/7 commitment after she was mercilessly mocked online for applying lip gloss on stage during actress Mariska Hargitay's award acceptance speech.
The mother of Paris Hilton and regular cast member on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills was on stage at the People's Choice Awards this week presenting the female TV Star of 2022 to Hargitay, who won the prize for her role in Law & Order: SVU.
Unfortunately for her, the spotlight immediately went on Hilton, who appeared to be preoccupied with applying lip gloss behind the award winner.
While 58-year-old Hargitay - who is the daughter of late Hollywood bombshell Jayne Mansfield - spoke to the audience about "kindness," "compassion," and "courage," Hilton, 63, can be seen on camera opening up her purse, pulling out her lipgloss, sighing, and applying it during her heartfelt speech.
Of course, the internet couldn't help but mock the incident, with one person writing: "Kathy Hilton on live tv audibly huffing while clutching her purse and applying lipstick during someone's emotional speech like," including a short clip of fellow Real Housewife LuAnn's song 'Money Can't Buy You Class.'
Though, not all people found the situation funny, as one person commented: "How extraordinarily rude Kathy Hilton. I cannot believe I (and every other viewer) just watched you apply lipstick, blot at it and SIGH in the middle of Mariska Hargitay's People's Choice Award acceptance speech. Doesn't get any more self-absorbed than that. Shame on you."
"Kathy Hilton reapplying lipstick while on stage during Mariska Hargitay heartfelt thank you speech is the epitome of rude and shows she is so full of herself," another tweet read.
Someone else chimed in: "What would prompt Kathy Hilton to put lipstick on while standing on the stage during this acceptance speech, then sigh as if bored?! Mariska deserves so much more respect than that."
"So I'm flipping tv channel & catch [Real Housewives of Beverly Hills] presenting an award. Standing behind Mariska during her acceptance speech, Kathy Hilton is busy flashing her designer bag to the [camera], looking bored & even applying lipstick. Distracting & rudely disappointing KH," another tweet read.
Talk about awkward! Still, this type of drama is nothing compared to what Hilton is used to on the Real Housewives...
