Speaking to Extra TV, she said: "I love the piercings, the tattoos, all the body mod stuff, but sometimes it can distract from the art." Paris explained it was her creative pals that inspired her to take the leap.
She said: "I made a friend when I did AHS a couple of years ago, Tyson Fountaine, he did my body make-up for one of my nude scenes I had." She told Access Hollywood: "When I decided to do this with CoverFX, I wanted to call him on.
"I had my whole dream team. I had Tyson and Pauly Blanch for face and Miles Jeffries for hair. I was like all the people I love putting this together."
Meanwhile Paris divided fans on social media with her dramatic new look. People watching the red carpet arrivals on X, formerly known as Twitter, had plenty to say. One person penned: "She looks better without them."
But another added: "Why cover them up?! I don't get why you get them to cover them." Someone else then said: "So much nicer without tattoos."
While a fourth penned: "That’s a lot of makeup to put on your body to cover the tattoos." And a fifth person said: "She ate this. I was so confused lmao."
