# US blogger Perez Hilton hospitalised, under Baker Act after self-harm livestream 2026-08-09T03:28:31+00:00 | World & Diplomacy | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet Celebrity blogger Perez Hilton, 48, remains hospitalised in Florida after livestreaming what appeared to be an act of self-harm from his Miami-area home. According to a family statement posted on his website, Hilton experienced "significant blood loss" and sustained injuries requiring surgery in the coming days. His condition is described as "serious but stable." The Miami-Dade Sheriff's Office confirmed officers responded to reports of someone "livestreaming acts of self-harm on social media" and that a person was "safely recovered" from the scene. Hilton is being treated under Florida's Baker Act, a law allowing emergency psychiatric holds. TikTok said its automated moderation flagged the stream but a moderator error delayed its removal. ## Coverage - livemint.com - timesofindia.indiatimes.com - timesnownews.com Tags: Baker Act, celebrity gossip, mental health, Perez Hilton, TikTok Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/perez-hilton-serious-but-stable-needs-surgery-after-blood-loss/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
