Paris Hilton says her blonde bimbo image ”just an act”

Speaking to heat magazine,Paris said: “I think a lot of people have seen me on The Simple Life and think I’m a ”spoilt airhead”.

She added: “I’m a lot more serious and shy…and if I’m not out,having to be,you know,”on”,I’m at home just chilling and wearing sweat pants.”
