  • Story Text: Celebrity heiress and businesswoman is back in Cannes to drum up some interest in the documentary "Paris, Not France", which follows her as she goes about her daily life being rich and famous.
    The 28-year-old tried to prevent the film, directed by Tom Pettys daughter Adria, from reaching the big screen, but now sees it as a kind of set-the-record-straight exercise for someone whose portrayal in the media is not always flattering.
    "I was a little scared," Hilton told reporters at the Cannes film festival, where she said she was partying hard. "I filmed it over three years ago so it was a different period of my life."
    "It also shows how it is living in this life and how much pressure there is. It definitely shows a different side than the media portrays me as."
    Hilton has been seen at trendy "Hollywood Dominoes" where she joked she won after never having played before but later corrected by a friend who actually took first place.
    She also attended the biggest premiere of the festival, Quentin Tarantino's "Inglourious Basterds" where she arrived fashionable late, well after the directors and cast had gone in.
