Here’s a chance to find out who Paris Hilton really is. The millionaire heiress to the titular hotel empire and real estate, pop star, writer, and socialite, Hilton will bare her very personal journey to the world in a documentary movie. Titled ‘This is Paris’ the feature will take us through her entire life, unraveling each layer of her personality and her adventures, one chapter at a time.

The biography will not only see aspects of the celebrity which we have never seen before, but also reveal a new side to her character, which could surprise many of her fans and the rest of the audience. Speaking to reporters at a panel discussion on the TV Critics Association press tour, Hilton admitted being “nervous” and how she “ended up discovering a lot about herself in the process”. She also said that working on ‘This Is Paris’ has been "an amazing experience, but also very scary." While sharing the news of her upcoming project and promoting it, Hilton was joined by celebrity magician, David Blaine.

Her story on ‘This is Paris’ will also expose us to a story of trauma that she went through but has never been spoken about before! The project, as the reality TV star claims will be “different” from all her previous projects and work before this. As described by YouTube, the documentary feature "will uncover the hidden past of the international icon, as Paris speaks publicly for the first time about heartbreaking trauma and pivotal moments in her early life that forged who she is today. As Paris confronts her past, this deeply compelling portrait will reveal the woman behind the icon and shed new light on our view of celebrity, and the insta-fame culture that Paris helped to create."

Hilton still feels the effects of the dumb blonde persona she had taken on in the 2003 reality show “The Simple Life".  “I was in on the joke. People thought that's who I really was,” Hilton said. “I've been judged on a character that I created at the beginning of my career and now I feel like it's really time that people see who the real Paris is.”

In simpler words, the movie will showcase anything and everything from Hilton’s younger years to becoming a businesswoman, a socialite, a singing star, author, and what it is like being an heiress to a business empire.

‘This Is Paris’ is all set to premiere in May 2020, on YouTube. Stay tuned as we bring you more updates on the upcoming movie.
