Perez Hilton health update: Blogger needs surgery after ‘significant blood loss’ following TikTok livestream · livemint.com

A famous person named Perez Hilton, who talks about celebrities on the internet, got very hurt.

He was taken to a hospital in Florida, a state in the United States.

People watching a video he made on the app TikTok saw that he seemed to hurt himself.

Police came to his house near Miami to help him and took him to the hospital.

His family said he lost a lot of blood and had other injuries.

Doctors say he will need surgery soon and will take a long time to get better.

A special Florida rule called the Baker Act lets doctors and others keep someone safe when they might hurt themselves.

Because of this rule, only his family and the people taking care of him can talk to him.

The app TikTok stopped the video after some time, and said a mistake caused a delay.

His family is asking for privacy while he recovers.
