I simply needed to turn into one thing else,” stated Hilton. “I used to be actually impressed by Marilyn Monroe. I do know that she additionally had two voices. When she was on digicam, she would do the type of greater pitch-like attractive child voice. After which I heard when she was off digicam, she would communicate in her regular tone of voice.”
