Paris Hilton insists she's not stupid?or ****ty?like you may think.
She claims the "Paris Hilton" we all see in front of the cameras is just a character she's invented.
"In a way it's good, but I also don't want people thinking of me as this blond heiress, airhead," she says in
Paris, Not France, a new documentary about her life, premiering Tuesday on MTV.
"But that is kind of my brand. I make a lot of money by doing that."
But she acknowledges her brand will forever be tarnished by -you guessed it- the infamous sex tape with ex-boyfriend Rick Salomon.
Yes, she goes there in the film.
"I always looked up to Princess Diana and all these women, and now I could never be like that," Paris says.
"I want to have a family. I want to be normal. I want to be happy."
Instead, she says, she has to worry about people
"thinking I'm a **** and thinking I'm something that I'm not."
But it was her mother, Kathy, who was doing the worrying last night?about having to actually watch the documentary.
"I didn't know [the sex tape] was going to be in it," she told us before seeing the film at a red carpet screening in L.A.
"It's very tough...I can't believe they kept that part in there. I thought they kept that part out. It's going to be very hard for us to watch."
