Paris Hilton recently spoke about the intense and often "cruel" criticism she and Britney Spears faced during the early 2000s. Hilton described their shared experiences of intense fame at a young age as "isolating," noting that Spears is one of the few people who truly understands.
During an appearance on "I've Never Said This Before with Tommy DiDario," Hilton explained that she adopted her "dumb blonde" public persona from "The Simple Life" as a defense mechanism. She viewed it as a mask to protect herself from the overwhelming scrutiny of the world.
