Paris Hilton is the modern day version of Princess Diana - according Oscar-winning actress Helen Mirren.
Mirren, who played The Queen on the big screen, insists the pair both gained popularity and icon status by fooling the world into thinking they were dumb blondes.
She says: "I don't applaud Paris Hilton… but I think she's pretty cool. She's developed, like Princess Diana, that deliberate foolishness, which is disarming."
