just when I thought TV could not sink lower
orangeisthenewawesome6 December 2008
I'm not a Paris fan and never have been so take this review with that bias in hand. This show is the dumbest, most scripted and unrealistic "reality" show around. I cannot imagine real human women auditioned for this show. I hope for society's sake that these contestants are paid actresses because if these women really want to be Paris Hilton's bff, I fear for the future of humanity. Perhaps I'm being extreme, but my God this show is stupid. Paris is an uneducated over plasticized bimbo who behaves even dumber than she likely is. She's such a terrible role model and I am sad the networks give her air time and even her own show. Don't watch this EVER, not even if there is a gun to your head. Death is a preferable alternative to sitting through even one episode of this garbage.

A new low for reality television
TOMNEL15 November 2008
There are no words to describe how truly horrible this show is, but I'll try my best. This show is quite probably the worst show ever made, with the most awful premise ever. Before this, there were some horrid reality programs, such as Parental Control or My Big Fat Obnoxious Fiancée, but my word! How can anything be worse than this?! Paris Hilton needs to lay low for a couple decades until she's matured to maybe the age of an 18 year old.

Paris Hilton wants a new best friend, so she puts random girls through these tests to see if they'll be her new BFF. These tests include making the girls dance for her, and making them keep secrets and not keep rumors going, and finding cute guys. The question then is does Paris want a new best friend, or does she want a new slave/entertainer to keep her company? At the end of each episode, Paris tearfully says goodbye to someone who just doesn't make the cut to be her best friend forever.

What an awful premise!!! How can Paris possibly find a best friend by putting these people through tests and spending limited time with them? It seems like these girls on the show would eventually bond with each other and get mad at Paris for getting rid of their friends. Even when someone wins this show, their friendship with Paris could be nothing but very artificial. Paris might as well have a show where girls lick dog feces off her shoes, and whichever one licks the most wins Paris Hilton's admiration. That's how vein this show is. The veins in my brain are popping as I try to comprehend who would make this show, and who would enjoy it.

It's crude, it's vein and it's absolutely the worst show to ever grace the small screen. Watching this too long will kill brain cells, and may cause mental retardation.

My rating: BOMB out of ****. 30 mins. TV14

No no no no no

This is just so wrong on so many levels. Who actually put the okay for this atrocity to be aired on TV. What the hell is wrong with you? Are there no standards anymore? This show proves that you can make TV-shows about anything these days. You could as well film paint drying on the wall and make that into a show. That would actually be more interesting than this pile of horse manure. Who in their right mind would watch Paris Hilton's BFF? What is the target audience for this show? I can only think of people who have suffered heavy brain damage and don't know what is going on, house pets, inanimate objects. I accidentally caught 5 mins of the show and i immediately felt my brain function go down by 5%. Why does that rich, spoiled snob Paris Hilton have to be on TV at all costs? A TV-show about her buying friends. I don't get it. Cant she just spend her days lying by the pool being pampered by her many servants, or shopping hats at Rodeo Drive. Someone please stop her from making more TV-shows please.

Permanent engagement and other Hiltonionic debris.
fedor817 February 2010
Just as I had thought that the "reality TV" market had already snatched up all the people with mental illnesses and all those cheap/unknown dime-a-dozen unemployed actors-for-hire, Paris Hilton's new MTV program proves that there is a seemingly inexhaustible supply of those two grade-Z media viruses.

To dismiss all the candidates as insane would be gullible. To label all of them as paid actors would be to underestimate the size of the pool of lunatics and morons that inhabit this sad little planet.

I believe that the assignments/tests should have been much better. A few suggestions:

1) The contestants get to shoot a porn film. Paris looks at the footage, and picks the girl with the smallest breast and the most idiotic grin.

2) The contestants are placed into large handbags, and pretend to be Paris's pet for 24 hours. The winner is expected to s*** 2-3 times, lick Hilton's derrière at least 5 times, and let Paris shove dog-food down their throat without complaining.

3) Each contestant is given exact replicas of Paris's 23 engagement rings. They then have to name as many of her 23 ex-fiancés as they can remember, and then write an essay on why they think Paris has to fake being "wife material" to the naïve public by being in a permanent state of "engagement".

4) A Paris Hilton Look-alike Competition. Each contestant gets a horror-movie make-up kit, and has to try to duplicate Paris's lazy eye and moronic grin to the best of their abilities.

5) The I.Q. test. All contestants with a score higher than 55 are automatically sent home. This would be the "April Fool's Day" assignment because none of the contestants would be eliminated after this round.

6) The South Park episode featuring Paris Hilton in the starring role is played in its entirety. The contestants would then have to explain whether what they just saw was an animated satire or a costume drama.

7) The contestants have to successfully complete an entire month's worth of impersonating any one of PH's three former best friends: Lindsey Lohan impersonators will be forced to have sex with an ugly female DJ, Britney Spears imitators will have to dance with a snake while lip-lynching out-of-synch in a phony dumb-U.S.-girlie "baby-voice", and Nicole Ritchie impersonators are expected to get themselves impregnated by a fat tattooed pop/baby-punk singer. (The fetuses will be later aborted in a "Paris Hilton MTV Abortion Special" and donated to PETA to feed the dolphins with.)

8) The VD assignment. "Collect as many venereal diseases in a 90-minute period as you can." The winner will be absolved from assignment 1.

One rich, spoiled, daddy's girl and a couple of miserable and pride-less people hoping to be her friend's!
axismladen3 July 2010
Who would humiliate them selves like this? What's wrong with people? How low do you have to fall to beg someone for friendship and especially if that someone is a spoiled, rich, daddy's girl!? This show is just terrible! Bottom of the bottom!!! A proof of how far human humiliation can go and a proof of how superstitious and poor some people are! How pathetic do you have to be to stare at Paris while she's sitting on her throne, waiting for her to approve you as her friend or better yet to humiliate you as a man!? Do this people have any pride left? I wouldn't do this show if it would mean my entire life! But don't get me wrong, this is, unfortunately, not the only show like that. There is plenty of them and i just can't believe that anyone is actually watching them or participating in 'em! TERRIBLE!!!

proof that she is not playing dumb...she actually is
queen_g_shine9 November 2008
I used to like Paris Hilton...her not so typical personality and her not so typical sense of fashion. She was different and special, that's why people watched The Simple Life, The Hottie and the Nottie and other productions in which she starred. That's why millions of people typed her name in searching bars and probably listened to her (not so great) songs. But now...seriously. "My new BFF"? First of all a BFF can't be new. Second of all you can't put people to drink alcohol and party until they feel sick. (and then blame them) This show has no essence, it's just another attempt to get the attention on her but she failed. She used to be at least interesting but now she has a bad attitude, she calls the contestants "pets" or "dolls" and she is so embarrassing trying to be bossy.

This is crap
marebare1020 November 2008
Warning: Spoilers
This show is petty filled with retarded bitches trying to acting slaves to become friends with America's biggest brat! Paris is manipulating the minds of 20 year olds, by calling them pets and dolls. If she really was trying to look for a bff (real one) she should go out in the real world the old fashioned way. This is true and real proof that she is a dumb s**t who's trying to get people to sleep their way into her friendship. Who knows if she had any sexual relations with any of them. If these people want to have some self respect and dignity they'd say ttyn to themselves. Don't even waste your time to check out the database. I only watch this crap for entertainment to see dumb w****s walk around looking like a bunch of dumb asses. The best part is she makes her self look even more like a dumb slut when she uses here mickey mouse voice and goes "I'm not dumb".

Abysmal
glenn-aylett20 February 2016
Warning: Spoilers
Reality television has produced plenty of rotten, forgettable shows such as Love Island and Shipwrecked, but this load of rubbish must be the worst ever, and even spawned a British version, which was apparently worse than BFF.

Basically 12 numpties want to be best friends with Paris Hilton, a reality show star and heiress. I managed to catch one episode at my sister's house and it consisted of deluded idiots bitching and moaning and sucking up to Hilton for an hour. As if she was really going to be best friends with these misfits and even sadder, four series of this rubbish was made until the plug was pulled.

Sadly shows like Geordie Show and TOWIE have taken the place of Paris Hilton's BFF in Britain, which proves there is a market for mindless reality junk that stations like MTV and ITV 2 want to fill their schedules with.

Avoid at all costs!
darkSPY66619 August 2011
This is my first review on IMDb as I felt this has to be said: This mindless drivel should be banned, yes BANNED from ever being broadcast. How this egoistical, train-wreck of a show gets funded and passed for viewing is beyond every law of comprehension. I would seriously have more joy in watching a gray concrete wall being corroded by the rain than ever watching a single second of anything to do with Paris Hilton. Talentless beyond belief, she exudes the most pathetic character ever witnessed and those attempting to be her so-called 'BFF' make you awe in wonder at the level of intelligence on offer, which I would say like the show itself, is lower than the excretory product evacuated from the bowels of a common hog.

arrrgh!

This is proof that you don't need talent to make it big in the show biz. Just be born in the right family and have connections and then you get to be plastered all over the media.

Where's your sense of humor?
velocirrober15 December 2010
Come on, people!! Why would anyone take seriously a show that is produced by Paris Hilton?!?! I just ran across this show the other night, and actually laughed a little bit...

The only thing that is more-gross-that-is-actually-entertaining than Paris Hilton, is a bunch of Paris Hilton wannabes! Does anyone really think that a BFF (whatever that entails) can be obtained from a show like this? It's almost as feasible as Flavor Flav finding a successful relationship out of "Flavor of Love." I don't understand how people say that TV hit a new low... I think human kind hit a new low with those contestants acting the way they did... But for entertainment purposes, I loved it...!
