Paris Hilton finds new ‘paparazzi-ready’ best bud

PARIS HILTON launched a television show to look for a new best friend who was hot, loyal and “paparazzi-ready” — and she says she found exactly what she was looking for.

Hilton, 27, said some 300,000 Americans applied to take part in the reality series “Paris Hilton’s My New BFF” (Best Friend Forever). It begins September 30 on MTV.

The 16 women and two men selected to compete had to perform challenges to be Hilton’s new BFF, including how to look hot on a rollercoaster.
