Nicky Hilton  Poker
Born into a life of luxury, Nicky Hilton grew up in the rich Waldorf-Astoria with parents Kathy and Rick, and older sister Paris Hilton. Both girls stand to inherit the hundreds of millions of dollars made by great-grandfather Conrad Hilton, who founded the famous Hilton hotels chain. Nicky, like her sister, recognized the need to establish a name for herself that would get away from the "hotel heiress" label.

Nicky Hilton and sister Paris naturally found their way into New York's inner social circle. Magazines such as FHM, Vanity Fair and Vogue noticed the clout the heiresses had and featured photo shoots and interviews of the girls. Socialite extraordinaire, Nicky is flooded in publicity and continues to attend big-time events around the world.

With her beautiful physique, modeling came natural to Nicky Hilton and many wondered whether she take on a full time career on the runway.

Though she does not get enough credit for it, Nicky always had a flair for the business side of things and began studying design in the hopes that her abilities would be fueled. Her goal was to create accessories for the fashion industry, not simply model in them.

Her natural good looks and marketable name were too much to pass up for designer Anand Jon, and consequently, Nicky did end up doing some modeling for him. Her big feat, however, came when she was asked to design handbags for Tokyo-based Samantha Thavasa.

Maybe it’s a result of her lineage from great-grandfather and the Hilton Hotel empire founder, Conrad Hilton. He was born in San Antonio, New Mexico just south of Socorro, New Mexico and it has long been rumored around New Mexico that her great grandfather was a skilled poker player.
