Infinite Icon is the second studio album by American media personality and singer Paris Hilton, released on September 6, 2024, through her production company 11:11 Media in partnership with ADA.[3][4][5][6]Sia is the album's executive producer.[7][8] It was released 18 years after her debut album Paris (2006). Grammy's Glenn Rowley described the album as 12 tracks of electro-infused dance-pop.[9][10]
Following the release of her debut album, Hilton had occasionally expressed an interest in recording a second album.[11][12][13] She instead released a series of standalone singles through Cash Money Records and her own Heiress Records, a sub-label of Warner Bros. Records, and was featured in a number of other artists' songs.[14]
After performing a rendition of "Stars Are Blind" with Sia and Miley Cyrus on NBC's Miley’s New Year's Eve Party special in December 2022, Sia encouraged Hilton to record a pop album and suggested having sessions at her house.[10] Hilton remarked that the singer "literally brought out something in me that I didn't even know I had. Before I was more in the baby voice and being very breathy and kind of like, Marilyn [Monroe] vibes. And then with this album, I just felt like a woman."[10] Part of the project was recorded at Sia and Hilton's home studios in Los Angeles.[10]
Infinite Icon is influenced by Hilton's longtime love of dance music and career as a disc jockey. She stated that performing "all around the world at music festivals, for thousands of people and being on stage and just really paying attention to what makes people move and how to create those unforgettable dancefloor moments —I wanted to bring that same energy into the album."[10] The album incorporates different types of house music with pop music in each of its first three singles, with the lead single, "I'm Free" incorporating french house with synth-pop and nu-disco while "Chasin" blends tropical house with pop music, "BBA" is an electroclash song that infuses big room with dance-pop, the final singles from the album, "ADHD" however is purely pop whereas "Without Love" is a dance track with electronic pop beats similar to hyperpop and also incorporates house music elements.

The album contains songs that traverse more nuanced topics such as her ADHD diagnosis, negative relationship experiences, the emptiness of fame, and her marriage and family life.[10]
