Famous socialite Paris Hilton recently viewed a movie that was based around the real-life robberies of celebrity homes including her own. The Bling Ring -which was directed by Sofia Coppola and starred Emma Watson - was actually shot in part inside Hilton's actual house where some of the robberies that the film is based on took place. Paris admitted that watching the film was an emotional event and she even gave some back-story to Vanity Fair about her involvement in the production as well as some facts about a particular set of pillows featured in the film.

"[Sofia] came to my birthday party last year and told me she was doing the film," Hilton explained. "She said that she loved my house and really wanted to shoot there. She said it would be so impossible to re-create."

A production insider on The Bling Ring confirmed this point, saying, "Even if we had all of the money in the world, there was no way that we could actually create that. There's no way."

Considering the subject matter of the movie, Hilton was left a little confused.

"It's pretty bizarre," she said. "They were so obsessed that they just wanted to steal our lives. It's a scary world we're growing up in now ... When I was growing up, I just loved the animals. I wanted to be a veterinarian. I didn't really care about celebrities."

"It was really emotional," Paris admitted about viewing the film. "It made me really upset and angry. I was trying not to cry because I knew I had to, like, walk around Cannes after. But yeah, it made me very upset because I knew that it was all true."

The Bling Ring also features a handful of pillows inside of Paris' home that happen to have the heiress' face on them. Clearly a funny moment in the film, the pillows turned out to actually belong to Paris.

"I think it's funny. That's the reason I have them," she said of the pillows. "My girlfriend bought them for me as a joke, and I thought they were hilarious and kept them. There are, like, four."

But on a more serious note, Hilton admits that she definitely learned some important lessons from the movie.

"I've put an advanced security system with laser systems. Security guards are always there, and there are cameras everywhere," she said. "So if anyone tries to get in, they're going to get caught."
