Not too long ago, Paris Hilton released a documentary about her life and while promoting that documentary — she exposed her ‘real’ voice and explained to a reporter how she has been playing a ‘dumb blonde’ for years.
This entire time, I have been playing a character, so the world has never truly known who I am… The real me is someone who is actually brilliant. I’m not a dumb blonde, I’m just really good at pretending to be one.
One of Hilton’s trademarks is her valley girl baby voice that she has been using since the early 2000s while starring on The Simple Life with Nicole Richie. She has a new documentary that just came out which goes into her life in great detail, exposing some trauma from her past at the same time. Being known as a “dumb blonde” is not something she wants to be remembered for.
Paris Hilton continued, noting she doesn’t want to be “remembered for some airhead, but the businesswoman” she is.
Hilton has taken over many projects over the years in an effort to separate herself from her family wealth. When asked about what the difference between her character and the real Paris Hilton, she replied, “There’s so many differences. With the character, it’s mostly kind of this blonde, bubbly, kind of Barbie airhead. And in real life, I’m the exact opposite.”
Hilton’s documentary is called, This Is Paris, and Hilton hopes that viewers can find the real Paris in it. “I think when people see the film, they’re gonna see a completely different side. And they’re gonna see I am a human and I do have feelings. And they’re gonna understand me a lot more. I know there’s so much more to me than what they thought.”
You can find the documentary on Youtube.
