Paris Hilton is bringing “My New BFF” to Dubai, where the show will be reined in a notch to accommodate Middle East sensibilities, the production company behind the series said on Tuesday.
Production on the latest version of “Paris Hilton’s My New BFF” will begin later this month (June) in Dubai and take 17 days, Ish Entertainment said.
“We’re very aware we are not making the same show we would make in Los Angeles,” said Ish co-founder Michael Hirschorn.
Despite the high alcohol content often found in similar reality shows, Hirschorn said that to respect the local mores of Dubai, alcohol may be nixed from the program.
He added that the idea for the show intrigued him.
“I was excited about the sheer, ‘Oh my God, what’s going to happen’ factor,” Hirschorn said.
Lions Gate Entertainment Corp will distribute the show internationally, and the program will likely air in Arab countries and possibly in the U.S. on cable channel MTV or on the TV Guide Network, which is owned by Lions Gate.
No air date has been set for the show starring Hilton, who has never before been to Dubai.

…what can I say – the designs are getting better, formal appearance adds luster, cut the over acting try the ease and natural look…won’t get to watch the show but will hear about it…
Cannot WAIT! This is gonna be so interesting! And it’s good to see P going to visit different cultures!
I can’t wait to watch that show, it’ll be SO interesting!
xoxo
Whoa that does sounds really interesting!!
It will probably be a good thing if they cut out alcohol though, because so many people on the show tend to over-do it, like Kayley on the first season of the LA one, and Meddy on the BBF show haha.
Dubai sounds amazing!!!! soo luxurious from what I’ve heard! I’ve never been there but my friend who went there stayed in this hotel that was like an 8-star hotel or something, and the rooms were a couple hundred thousand dollars a night and their suite had a helicopter landing pad on the balcony and it came with a jet and everything… and an indoor ski resort with fake snow haha. It sounds like sooo much fun I wanna go there so bad! Paris is lucky she’s going to have so much fun!
