Watch Perez Hilton Get Confronted for Years of Outing LGBTQ+ Celebs

The Estefans confront blogger Perez Hilton about his history of outing celebrities on an upcoming episode of Red Table Talk, 

Over the years of his problematic career, the personality shared private information about Lance Bass, Clay Aiken, Neil Patrick Harris, and more LGBTQ+ celebrities that effectively outed them to the world. Just last week, former Fifth Harmony star Lauren Jauregui chatted with the Estefans about being outed by Hilton as a teenager. 

"My own process was violated," the 25-year-old shared. "I’m Latina, and there was that looming feeling of, 'What is my community going to think about me? Are they even going to accept me?'"

At the time in 2016, Hilton said he wrote he was "NOT sorry for that tweet about Lauren Jauregui. That was not 'outing' her." He continued, "All I did was send out a tweet talking about the leaked photo. I don’t regret that."

On an upcoming episode of Red Table Talk titled "The Cancel Culture Epidemic", the women sit down with Hilton to give him a chance to explain.

"Did you feel that because you were openly gay, that was your permission to out people that didn't come out?" Gloria asks directly.

"No that's just f*c*ked up," chimes in Emily Estefan, who is openly gay. "I never understood how you as a gay man, could put anybody in that situation."

"I knew what I was doing was wrong," Hilton replies, but says he fought to rationalize his behavior. He also blames his drug use. "I'm just sharing to my friends online, what my friends in private talk about. So why should I treat my public friends any different than my private friends?"

"They're not your friends," Emily claps back. "They're the audiences of these people."
