The less tabloid-hogging of the two Hilton sister heiresses, Nicky Hilton began her career as a model. She went on to appear in a handful of cameo film roles, but began focusing her attention on operating her own clothing lines in 2004, when she launched Chick by Nicky Hilton. She followed in her famous family's footsteps in 2006 by launching her own chain of Nicky O luxury hotels. Like her sister, Hilton has also made some headlines of her own, with dating escapades and rumors of an eating disorder among them. ~ Sarah Block, All Movie Guide
