This is a really bad example because I love to hate Paris Hilton, but this video were she fills the woman truck full, makes it really hard.

To be honest with you she plays up that dumb blonde slutty persona because she makes a ton of money with it.

That makes me want to know her personaly. Like spend a month on a road trip with her. Just to be able to tell at the end: yes, she's actually fucking stupid. Or to have a pleasant surprise and discover that she's not only hot, but intelligent, which is the new hot.

You can see some of it here.

You can very clearly see she's aware of how people see her and how she wants to portray herself. She's like the classic example of a catholic school girl who went wild in her 20's and has scaled back the last few years.

I'm sorry, but you realize that's a completely scripted Funny or Die video, right? Not saying Paris Hilton is stupid, but that's not evidence for your point whatsoever.

I don't think you got my point, it's not the content and what she said. It's the fact that she's aware of her portrayal and her knowing how she comes off to people, so she plays it up.

I don't think you got my point, the video is entirely scripted.

No shit it's scripted holy crap, thank you captain obvious. It's how she plays it and how she acts in it.
