The Doctor Says.....

Best friends are a part of who we are, they are someone with whom you can always be yourself, the one person you can confide in when the rest of the world seems out of reach, a shoulder to cry on, they are honesty and trust, and we, as a best friend to them, will do everything we can to return their love. So, what better way to find a best friend than through reality TV...Paris Hilton’s desperation for fame never ceases to amaze me.

Paris Hilton’s British Best Friend is the latest reality TV show to desecrate our screens, and it follows the American ‘has-no-specific-job’ star in her search for a new best friend. The series was filmed no sooner than a year after the US version, Paris Hilton’s My New BFF, was aired. It seems one new best friend just wasn’t enough for Paris.

Some may say that the show is purely a publicity stunt. But surely putting complete strangers through random tasks, voting off the ones who fail, and having filmed interactions with them is a genuine attempt at finding friendship?

As wise as Paris’ knowledge of human interaction is, I think I’ll stick to the old-fashioned way of finding my friends.
