Paris Hilton insists she’s not stupid or slutty like you may think. She claims the “Paris Hilton” we all see in front of the cameras is just a character she’s invented.

Paris Hilton has a new documentary about her life about to hit MTV. On Tuesday “Paris, Not France” will hit a tv near you. The heiress uses it convey the message that a sex tape is to blame for her current association with being dumb and easy.

Paris said :”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.”

“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 slut 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.”
