Sex tape ruined Hilton's chance to be like Diana

London (ANI): Paris Hilton blames her scandalous life for preventing her from fulfilling her dreams of being like Princess Diana. The celebrity socialite makes the claim in a new documentary - titled Paris, Not France - screened at the Cannes Film Festival. The film looks at Hilton's empire and goes behind the scenes of her life.

Hilton's bad behaviour includes her infamous sex tape with Rick Solomon, other leaked saucy videos and pictures, a charge for Driving Under the Influence (DUI) and a short spell behind bars, reports The Sun.

Talking about that sex video, Paris says: "When I heard about it I thought: 'Yeah right. It's going to be a look-a-like. It's going to be a joke.' But a couple of hours later it was all over online and then I saw it. t's the most intimate thing you can do and the whole f***ing world is watching it and laughing at you. That's not what I wanted when I was a little girl. It's not what I planned. I always looked up to people like Princess Diana and now I can never be like that."

The documentary was shot in London, New York, Tokyo, LA and Las Vegas. Hilton said her public persona was nothing like how she was behind closed doors. he says: "People see me as a Barbie with a perfect life, a fantasy... maybe that's what they like. There's a mystery about me because how I am in public is completely different to how I am in private."
