We knew it! We just KNEW that Paris would realize the error of her ways and crown Stephen her bestie on tonight's finale of BFF! Actually, we didn't ... but we prayed it would happen. And thankfully, even in Reality TV-Land, there are still some happy endings. Check out the blushing bridesmaid's update below to find out how he and his new best friendzie have been bonding since the show wrapped...

Ahhhhhhh! Can you believe it!? I'm Paris' new BFF! It seems like I've been in "somebody pinch me" mode forever ... and it feels so, so good now that everyone can finally know how everything turned out!

The night of the finale was magical. I (along with everyone else) assumed that my BFF Journey had ended. I was very excited to be in the finale and watch as either Tiniecia or Stefanie was crowned the new BFF. I remember when we pulled up in front of Paris' grandparents' house, Desirae turned to me and said, "So how you gonna feel when Paris calls your name tonight and says she wants you to be her new BFF?" I laughed it off and said, "Yeah, right." Little did I know what would happen an hour later.

If there's one thing Paris Hilton won't tolerate, it's tackiness (hence Desi's hasty dismissal). And since she wants a BFF whose taste "doesn't suck," she's giving everyone a quick refresher course in class. First up on her lesson plan? Teaching her besties how to exit a car in a miniskirt -- without showing everyone their Britney. Watch as Paris schools the gang in sophistication and tries to find out which of these party animals is a hungry tiger in disguise.

She may not have left the mansion tonight as Paris Hilton's 'New BFF,' but Desirae definitely made some friends for life! Plus, she went home with a few invaluable fashion pointers. Tip No. 1: Price tags should always be kept private...

I’m not offended that Paris eliminated me. I actually woke up that morning and knew I was going home -- my heart just wasn’t in it anymore. I was sick, throwing up and sleeping the whole day. Plus, I gained 10lbs because I wasn't eating healthy meals. Worst of all, I was getting annoyed with myself and my roommates, which isn’t in my nature.

As for my fashion faux pas, we've all made mistakes when it comes to clothes haha. I guess I just figured Paris was going with the whole "doll" theme that day. And let me just take a second to clear up what happened in Episode 3, when I thought it was OK to mention the price of my dress.

In 2001, Paris herself wore a dress with POKER CHIPS on it and then mentioned on the red carpet that the chips added up to one million dollars! Now, I put Paris in the same category as Rihanna and Megan Fox -- they wear what they want and do what they want -- therefore, I didn't consider it tacky to bring up the cost of my dress because she had done the same thing! But silly me, this isn’t 2001 anymore. Paris has grown up a lot since her early 20s.

As for the other contestants ... I came into this crazy escapade with a very open mind. I wasn't so much trying to find a BFF but rather offer my BFFness to Paris. At the start, I didn’t care to meet anyone else, but that changed VERY quickly.

By booting Desirae for her "unforgivable" lack of fashion sense, Paris tossed David, Amanda and Tiniecia a lucky break. And even though she scolded all three for acting like babies (and told David to be more "sensitive"), P. Hizzle mostly left bad enough alone. After all, she's here to find her new BFF, not play referee!

But since we have no prob pointing fingers, we wanna know how the Shoelace Prank turned into a big, screamy mess. Was Amanda a tad overdramatic? Was David outta line for bashing her boyfriend? Was Tiniecia about twelve hundred decibels too loud? If you ask us, they're ALL drama queens, but take our poll and let us know which BFF-to-be has the world's shortest fuse.

We know, we know, Paris' trashy hat/sunglasses getup wasn't exactly a fashion tour de force. But you can't be a style icon without taking a few chances, and at the risk of sounding like Desirae, we didn't totally hate it. Sure, it was slightly ridic and old ladyish -- but nothing like the homeless/septuagenarian concoctions Mary-Kate Olsen wears. Besides, ditch the Claire's Accessories (i.e. cheap shades and fedora), and it's totally almost wearable! (Or at least WAY less Boca Raton Barbie.)

+ Think Paris' outfit was an accidental slam dunk? Or a MAJOR fashion don't? Take our (anonymous!) poll and let us know whether Paris' over-the-top ensemble was a train wreck -- or a trend in the making.

We're halfway through Paris Hilton's grueling search for a new slave sidekick, but the heiress sure isn't making the game any easier for its remaining contestants. On tonight's episode, another two wannabes bit the dust -- hard, and to their own dismay. R.I.P. Nicole and Kaitlin! (And lovely Farrah Fawcett, as long as we're on the subject.)

Below, check out Kaitlin's update on life after taping the emotional roller-coaster ride known to y'all as Paris Hilton's My New BFF...

Well, my time was cut short, but what a wonderful/stressful/ exhausting/once-in-a-lifetime experience it was!

I think people have this idea of reality TV like it's all fun, games and parties. Although that's a big part of it, it's also very tedious and stressful.

At one point in the show, Stephen called me "a mess" -- and honestly, I was. It's hard to be enthusiastic and in the right state of mind when you're not sleeping enough, not eating well and can't talk to your friends or family from back home. Plus, taking heat from other cast members doesn't help. You should always take this into consideration when watching reality shows!

The best times I had during this entire experience were when the cameras were off! One of my favorite memories is making everyone breakfast (every day!), no matter what happened the night before. (I always wanted to make sure everyone got a hearty meal before we started the day.) They never show that!

As for my casting footage, I could blog all day about how it was edited, what they did to it to make it look and sound the way it did. But shame on me for my foolishness in that tape and giving producers/editors even more material to work with.

You barely ever get on reality TV for being some perfect, God-loving creature. I knew I would have to be controversial to get on the show. And hey, I guess it worked. I would still like to apologize to anyone who my words offended. It wasn't the way I wanted to go out, but it is what it is. I still don't agree with how and why I was eliminated.

Clearly, Paris made the right call by cutting Katie loose (girl heard TTYN and fired back with some four-letter words of her own!). But we would've liked to have seen more of Kristen, the slightly spoiled rich girl who reminds us that not everyone in Tinseltown wears a size 0. So who should've gone home instead? That'd be Nicole, the girl whose helium-meet-nails-on-a-chalkboard voice is topped only by her fugly prom style and her icky "Paris doesn't hang out with fat girls" snipes.

Think Nicole should've been booted for being an airhead with next-to-no fashion sense? Or was Paris right to toss Kristen, the (apparently) stuck-up trustafarian who snoozed through the makeover challenge? Take our poll and let us know whether Paris got it right this week!

Now that Paris has weeded out the husband-stealers and vomit-inducing lap dancers, it's time to see what the rest of the girls (and, um, Stephen) are made of! Next week, the drama continues when the World's Biggest Cupcake quickly leads to the World's Biggest Cupcake Fight -- and a one-on-one grudge match between lippy ladies Katie and Desirae. Fortch, Paris has the perfect way to get everyone cleaned off: makeover mania!! But BFFs beware: looks aren't everything. And for one of these "airheads," it's TTYN...

The wannabe besties endured yet another double elimination on tonight's Paris Hilton's My New BFF. Man, P's cleaning house quickly! Guess the girl just knows exactly what she's looking for this time around. And unfortch for Monica, it wasn't her. Below, check out another ex-BFF's reaction to getting the boot so early on in the game.

I wasn’t shocked at getting eliminated -- in fact, I kind of seen it coming. I think that Paris is looking for someone who isn't reminiscent of her wild and crazy party days. She has Doug now and is trying to clean up her image. I’m a college graduate; I work hard, take care of my family ... but I also play hard! I do not regret anything I did on the show -- who cares about a silly lap dance and popping a bottle of champagne? Big DEAL! My dress was short, how scandalous!! At least I was wearing underwear…I was disappointed with Paris for passing judgment because she herself doesn’t have the cleanest track record. She acted like what I did was more risqué than anything she's ever done. She should know what it feels like when people pass judgment on you for stupid things that hold no bearing on who you are as a person. I thought she was cooler than that, but I guess it’s all about her and her image.

Otherwise, Paris is really chill and much smarter than how she's portrayed. Hanging out with her on the ice cream date showed me her humble side because she was nice enough to take pictures with fans. Plus, Paris has made a brand of herself and that is something to really admire.

OMG, you guys! It's seriously only been five minutes (okay, fine two episodes) and the claws have already come out big-time! So whose are the sharpest? Well, tonight everyone got in a few good "oh-NO-you-didn't-girl!" one-liners. Peep the best of the worst below, then tell us which wannabe's like Regina George (complete with army of skanks!), except for waaaaay meaner ... and stuff.

KATIE: "Monica looked like she was beating the crap out of that guy with her vagina."
TINIECIA: "You need to quit crying, cuz it's not workin' for me."
PARIS: "O-M-G, Monica. Ew ... I can still taste the puke in my mouth."
DESIRAE: "Have fun listening to Tiniecia's ghetto-ass voice and eating ice cream."
PARIS: "I said to show the guys a really good time, but you were only interested in showing them something else: your privates."

+ For the record, yes, we know, Stephen called everyone a "skank" and admitted Arika "had a moment of sluttiness." But we're judging this week's entries based on quality, not quantity. Better luck next time, S!
