Paris Hilton Just Called Lindsay Lohan a ‘Pathological Liar’ And It’s Kind of Nostalgic

Paris Hilton just called Lindsay Lohan a “pathological liar” on Instagram. We have been transported back to the early 2000s and we feel so alive.

Extreme self-tanner, velour tracksuits, and low slung jeans were some beloved aspects of this glorious era —but it was also the era of iconic frenemies Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan. We remember ferociously texting on our Razor flip phones to discuss the Paris and Lindsay feud way back in 2006. Only OG celeb stalkers such as ourselves are able to fully appreciate the beauty and depth behind the decades-long hostility between the starlets. We are all too pleased with this unanticipated throwback. This, friends, is Jewish pop culture schadenfreude.

And it is just slightly Jewish. @commentsbycelebs, a brand new Instagram sensation run by two Jewish millennials, captured the epic trash-talk moment. We are eternally grateful to them for this bestowal of kindness:

Thank you, @commentsbycelebs, for bringing us back to simpler times in which our biggest concerns were centered around Lohan accusing Hilton of dumping a drink on her. Ah, 2006. We should never have taken you for granted.

With an ongoing war, rising antisemitism, and a flood of disinformation that may affect the upcoming election, we believe that free and open access to Jewish journalism is imperative.

Readers like you make it all possible. Right now, we’re in the middle of our Passover Pledge Drive and we still need 300 people to step up and make a gift to sustain our trustworthy, independent journalism.
