Paris Searching for a BFF

Barbie needs a new party pal.

MTV, the network with no shame, has given the greenlight to a new reality show where Paris Hilton searches for a new best friend.

"Paris Hilton's My New BFF" will find 20 contestants clawing their way into Hilton's heart and limo. MTV says that the winner will score "an all-access pass to the VIP section of the VIP section, and life lessons from the master of contemporary Hollywood celebrity."

MTV has ordered 10 episodes, with Hilton snagging co-creator and executive producer credits.

"It's undeniable that the world is always talking about Paris Hilton, and the same could be said about MTV," said Brian Graden, President of Entertainment MTV Networks Music Channels. "Paris is one of the most searched icons on the Web and has been the focus of everyone's attention from TMZ to Forbes. Now MTV will reveal the life of Paris, turn her fans into friends, and see what it takes to get close to one of the world's most well-known personalities."

Think you've got the brawn and lack of brains to become Paris' plaything? Upload a video at ParisBFF.com. Reuters says viewers will vote who makes the cut.
