AIRIES [3-5 / 60º-75º], one of the constellations in the "One Size Fits All" (1975) "universe", has a star named "Hilton", which is probably a reference to the hotel (see also Sheraton). For completeness sake, there were also "Daisy and Violet Hilton", a pair of conjoined twins ("freaks") who toured in the US sideshow and vaudeville circuit in the 1930s. They both acted in Tod Browning's famous horror movie "Freaks" (1932), which was one of Zappa's favorite films.
On 29 February 1968, Zappa and The Mothers played at the pre-Grammy Awards ceremony dinner at the Hilton Hotel in New York.
