Paris Hilton’s My New BFF

Paris Hilton needs more pals so she's looking for her new best friend on national television with her show Paris Hilton's My New BFF.

We all know Paris is a franchise unto herself. On to the show, Paris Hilton tries to find a new best friend from a group of hopeful BFFs. Of course, a camera crew follows her throughout the process.

16 girls and two boys were chosen out of a reported 300,000 applicants to compete for Paris Hilton's friendly affections. The contestant compete in various competitions and, if they're lucky, might just do well enough to be named Paris' pet for a week. Yes, you read that right…Paris' pet. Here's the contestant break down:

• Brittany

This is a rock star with a few rules. Though she claims she loves to be the center of attention and party like a rockstar she leads a self-imposed celibate lifestyle.

• Michelle

This blonde southern girl claims her breasts as her best feature and that other girls are mean to her because they're just jealous of her beauty…and she wonders why people think she's shallow.

• Sinsu

Cute name, cute girl, but she loses points when she refers to herself as a "cougar in training". Paris relieved her of her duties because she drank and partied too much.

• Corrie

Aspiring model Corrie seems to not play well with others, but it's only Paris that counts right?

• Kayley

Grew up in the Hollywood lifestyle, attended rehab when she was a teenager and now does her best to behave. Kayley says she needs to uphold her image as "Hollywood royalty" because she's legendary actor Clark Gable's granddaughter.

• Kiki

Kiki describes herself as "the bomb" and "fabulous".

• Vanessa

She told producers that she wanted to get some fashion tips from Paris. Could this be a new Paris clone?

• Zui

Zui hails from Woodbridge, Virginia, and she describes herself as very rock and roll.

• Lauren

She's boy-crazy and she owns it, claiming that she always puts boys first in her life.

• Shelley

She loves fashion and loves boys. Perfect for Paris.

• Athena

Daughter of Greek soccer player Georgios Georgiadis, she likes to party with her sorority sisters and vacation in Europe.

• Baje

A self-proclaimed "diva" claims to have, on occasion, been attracted to women but is always on the lookout for a man with money.

• Bryan

Another aspiring model while he goes to school and works in a tanning salon, Bryan is only one of two men on the show. He describes himself as "the hottest gay guy around."

• Francisca

Hooters girl Francisca says she tries, but often fails to control her temper.

• Natasha

Will this wannabe rock star from Jersey be too hardcore for Hilton?

• Onch

The second of the two men on the show, Onch is a jewelry designer from California.

• Trisha

How does a seemingly good girl, valedictorian of her high school class from Pennsylvania end up on Paris Hilton's My New BFF?

• Erin

Erin says she loves fashion, boys and is always on point with her clothes, hair and makeup.
