Socialite Paris Hilton is bringing her quest to find a new best friend forever (BFF) to the U.K. in a reality TV show.The former Simple Life star is set to front a new series, tentatively titled Paris Hilton New Best Friend, in which female contestants will compete to become the heiress-turned-actress' pal.Hilton completed filming an American version of the show earlier this year and now British TV bosses have reportedly paid her $1 million to find a lucky Londoner to become her latest friend.A source says, "Paris is great on TV and bosses over here have been keen to snap her up for ages. Fronting her own show in the U.K. for the first time is a big risk but producers are confident they have a ratings hit."They are shelling out a fortune not just on Paris but also on production costs."Filming will take place over the coming months, and the show will be broadcast on British digital channel ITV2.
