Fans stunned after Paris Hilton 'slips up' and uses 'real' voice during interview

Paris Hilton has long been in the spotlight, but it turns out she hasn't been using her 'real' voice for all this time.

Hilton became a 00s icon alongside Nicole Richie after starring in The Simple Life together; a show where both Richie and Hilton — who grew in wealthy homes — were forced to get low paying jobs and live with middle-class families.

The show propelled the pair into international stardom, with Hilton in particular becoming well-known for what she's previously described as her 'ditzy airhead character'.

But it turns out this is just a front for the DJ, heiress, and socialite.

She recently revealed that she opted to use her 'real voice' in her 2024 album Infinite Icon with the encouragement of Sia.

Discussing the persona she'd put on for so many years, Hilton explained in an interview with Nylon: "In the beginning, it was kind of a trauma response, where I wanted to create this perfect Barbie doll life because of what I went through as a teenager at those emotional-growth boarding… I hate even calling them 'schools'. This was a protective mask."

The mom-of-two alleges that she was abused at the school she was sent to for supposedly 'troubled teens'.

In light of her reported experiences, Hilton has been campaigning to improve child welfare protections in the US and while speaking at a House committee last year on the matter, the 43-year-old revealed her real voice.

Now, her 2024 interview with First We Feast where she discussed her favorite snacks is doing the rounds online as Hilton seemingly accidentally switched from her 'persona' voice to her real one.

The moment occurred as she discussed her love of cereals like Lucky Charms and Rice Krispies.

Hilton's apparent slip-up has been discussed on Reddit of late as people shared their thoughts on how she really sounds.

"Her actual voice is incredibly less annoying," one person said.

Echoing similar sentiments, someone else wrote: "I concur I be inclined to say I’d be happy to hear her real voice more."

Others hailed Hilton's real voice as 'sexy'. Someone penned: "She has a very sexy naturally deep voice imo."

"Dude her real voice is so sexy," wrote a second.

"I don't know why but I was immediately attracted to that voice," a third added.

Elsewhere on First We Feast's YouTube video, people said that she should use her real voice more often.

I mean, it must be pretty tiring putting on a voice that isn't your own all the time.
