Sofia Coppola impressed by Paris Hilton in “The Bling Ring”

Reported by Digital Spy

Sofia Coppola has revealed that she was “impressed” with Paris Hilton following her cameo in The Bling Ring.

The Lost in Translation director told Red magazine how the heiress, who was a victim of the Hollywood Hills burglaries depicted in the movie, allowed scenes to be filmed in her mansion.

“Actually, I was impressed [with Paris Hilton]. She is more self-aware than you would expect. She was very helpful in making the movie, and aware yet relaxed about her image,” Coppola said.

“I wanted to show what it is really like to be in Paris Hilton’s closet – the thrill of entering it. It’s like a candy store. It was pretty impressive. I could not believe the amount of clothes. But Paris was cool.”
