9:00 PM 1.0 I WANT TO BE A HILTON
EPISODE #3

"I WANT TO BE A HILTON" presents a fresh, humorous -- and sometimes poignant ode to the glamour and style of New York as reflected by its host and mentor Kathy Hilton, matriarch of one of the most ubiquitous families in the world. The unscripted series charts the foibles and flirtations encountered by 14 eccentric young contestants as they vie for the opportunity to live the glamorous caviar and champagne lifestyle. Immersing them into the New York society scene, Hilton educates the contestants in the do's and don'ts of haute couture, etiquette and even how to handle an unforgiving press. At the conclusion of each episode, Hilton eliminates the candidates based on the results of the weekly challenge. The finalist wins an extravagant prize package and the opportunity to live the high life, ala a Hilton, for a year. "I Want to be a Hilton" is produced by Endemol USA, a leading producer of television programming specializing in reality and non-scripted genres for network and cable television. Endemol USA is a division of Endemol Holding, a prominent international content developer, producer and distributor of television and online programming.
