Paris Hilton Almost Has a New Best Friend

Paris Hilton attends the In Touch Weekly Summer Stars Party at the Social Hollywood Club on Thursday in Los Angeles.

Earlier in the day, the 27-year-old hotel heiress started to tape her new reality TV show, Paris Hilton’s My New Best Friend. And she just blogged about it:

“Hey everyone! I am so excited, we have finally started taping my new show for MTV. I just want to thank you all for sending in your videos and applications. The response was massive and incredible, we had more applicants then any show in history, so that felt really nice that so many people wanted to be apart of it. I met all the contestants on Wednesday night. I had them all meet me at the club Les Deux. I was a little nervous at first cause I always get shy meeting new people. But everyone ended up being very sweet, cool and fun to be around. I’m really happy with the final contestants, although it was really hard to pick only 18 people from so many great choices. Today I had the team from Fred Segal Beauty come do makeovers on these girls and boys and the results were astonishing. They all looked stunning and beautiful and hot! So much fun! I love doing make overs on my friends .I have to do an elimination tomorrow, meaning telling one of the contestants that they have to leave. I am having anxiety and really dreading those moments of all the eliminations. But it’s going to be a lot of fun and a these people will get to have a fun experience and I’m happy cause I feel like I’ve made friends with some of these people already.

“Also go check out my boyfriend’s blog at GoodCharlotte.com, he posted some cool pics of the first two days of shooting, and him and his friends came out to support me. I love how he’s always there for me, he always knows how to make me smile. Life is amazing, couldn’t be happier, excited for what the future holds. Again, thank you all for all your love and support. I’ll write soon xoxo Paris”
