I'm watching Paris Hilton's My New BFF (Best Friends Forever) not to be confused with Paris Hilton's British Best Friend (BBF) although it would certainly be easy as they both run in marathon blocks on the often overlooked T.V. Guide channel.
Both feature contestants vying to fill the hole in Paris (ahem) left by "fake people"pretending to be real friends, "fakes", "fakers" and "fakey fakerstons" [maybe not the last one].
The contestants can be summarized by the title of this entry, an actual quote from one girl while being interviewed by Paris' enemend, Perez Hilton.
When P. Hitty decides which one of the girls cannot be her BFF, she says goodbye as only Paris can,"TTYN (Talk to you never)."
When it comes down to the last four contestants, Ms. Hilton is a bit nicer.
"I feel like God sent you to me here as an Angel. I'm not saying 'TTYN' to you...'TTYS'...Talk to you soon."
And after each elimination she swears that that was "the hardest thing I've ever had to do in my life!"
Obvious character flaws aside, Ms. Hilton appears much less brain-dead when she drops the little girl affect and uses her real voice.
The girl considers herself a brand therefore I guess it would make sense to have her own lingo/language. She made the word "hot" a catchphrase! The word that usually appears in conjunction with "cold". She took a simple adjective and made it her own. Now she has moved on to "huge", as her Twitter bio would suggest. Taking one of language's base words and turning it into your catchphrase is no small feat.
Although I shake my head in disbelief at the artificiality of her/brand, I admire her business acumen.
