Los Angeles, August 20, 2025 - HappyNest Entertainment and 9 Story Media Group, in partnership with Paris Hilton's next-gen media company 11:11 Media, are pleased to announce the premiere of the new animated kids' series Paris & Pups, set to launch September 23 on YouTube. Created for kids 5-8, the series launches with four episodes in week one, followed by weekly episode drops.
Inspired by Paris Hilton and her real-life pets, Paris & Pups follows five fabulous pups who live in the penthouse of The Fabuluxe Hotel with 12-year-old Paris Star. The animated series celebrates the bond between Paris Star (called "Star") and her pups, living their best lives, going on creative adventures, and bringing kindness and happiness to others.
The official trailer was also unveiled, offering fans a first look at the highly anticipated series. The trailer debuts the show's original theme song, performed by Paris Hilton herself, delivering a high-energy, kid-friendly pop anthem that sets the tone for the series.
Global pop culture icon Paris Hilton connects with over 80 million fans worldwide through a dynamic portfolio of storytelling platforms and products that capture her signature style. As CEO of 11:11 Media, Hilton has built a fast-growing new media and lifestyle powerhouse, delivering hit content across film, TV, and audio; innovative consumer products; and best-in-class licensing and brand partnerships across beauty, fashion, homeware, pets and more.
"I'm beyond excited to finally share Paris & Pups with the world," said Paris Hilton. "The series is
set in a glamorous hotel full of sparkle, adventure, and heart - a place that feels like home to me after growing up in hotels and making them my playground. At the center is Star, a girl named after my childhood nickname. She's kind, creative, and just a little mischievous - just like I was as a kid. Star's surrounded by the most adorable squad of pups - Slivington, Baby, Diamond, Mugsy, and Bijou - each with their own fabulous personality you're going to fall in love with. I've dreamed of bringing my love for animals to life on screen for as long as I can remember, and now, as a mom to two little animal lovers, it feels like the perfect time. Paris & Pups isn't just about cute dogs - it's about love, friendship, chasing your dreams, and sliving your best life." Paris & Pups is developed and produced by Paris Hilton's 11:11 Media; HappyNest Entertainment, a joint venture from UTA and Stampede Ventures; and 9 Story Media Group, a leading creator, producer and distributor of kids and family content and part of the Scholastic portfolio.
In addition to the digital series, Scholastic has retained global publishing rights across all formats and has announced plans for a first release in Fall 2026. 9 Story Distribution holds worldwide distribution rights for the series. Retail Monster is leading licensing efforts in the U.S with 9 Story Brands overseeing licensing in all other international markets.
