Paris Hilton Reality TV

Paris Hilton returns to reality TV during a 10 episode series slated to begin in Los Angeles at the end of May.

Paris Hilton, 27, unveiled the reality TV series, with the working title "Paris Hilton's My New BFF," (best friend forever) on Thursday. Hilton will challenge 20 men and women who will compete in the upcoming MTV reality show.

Production will begin at the end of May in Los Angeles, with an air date scheduled in the fourth quarter of 2008. The reality series will contain 10 episodes.

Those interested in joining Hilton's high society of best friends must submit personal details to the TV site where online voters will decide their fate. The 20 finalists will move into a spacious house with Hilton, and will learn from the master about "normal girl stuff," you know, like fashion, parties and shopping.

The winner, joining a long list of trusty sidekicks such as Dr. Watson, Tonto and Karl Rove, will get "an all-access pass to the VIP section of the VIP section," according to a statement.

At least until the inevitable celebrity feud flares up, which Hilton joked would "probably" inspire a new reality series. She declined to detail how the winner would be chosen, and what exactly they would win.

What is she looking for in a best friend?

"Someone that I can just trust, someone who's not gonna stab me in the back like has happened a lot in this town, someone I can have fun with," said Hilton, who co-created the series with Michael Hirschorn and Stella Stolper, former executives at VH1, the cable sister channel of MTV.
