OK, I know this year has been pretty wild, but I did not have "Paris Hilton reveals her real voice" on my 2020 bingo card.
That's exactly what happens at the start of Paris's new documentary, This Is Paris, where we see the 39-year-old recording a voiceover going in and out of her many different voices.
Um, wut?
You mean to tell me that the woman who starred in the iconic early-'00s reality series The Simple Life and gave us the signature catchphrase "That's hot" was pretending this whole time?
Well, it's true. Paris admitted in a recent interview with Sunrise that she has been playing a "dumb blonde" character.

FYI: Sunrise is an Australian morning talk show program.
During the interview, Paris shared, "This entire time, I have been playing a character, so the world has never really truly known who I am."
"The real me is actually someone who is brilliant, and I'm not a dumb blonde — I'm just really good at pretending to be one," she continued.
As for why she decided to reveal her true self now, Paris said, "I just felt like it was time for the world to finally know who I was. I feel like I've been through so much, and [there are] so many misconceptions and just preconceived notions about me."
She concluded, "Also, for my legacy and what I wanted to be remembered for. I don't want to be remembered as some airhead. I want to be respected for the businesswoman that I am."
