Getting ready to start filming overseas,  Paris Hilton took time to greet press in Dubai on Wednesday evening (June 17).

Dressed in a green floor length dress made by local designer Sarah Belhasastarlet, Miss Hilton is in the middle east to film her new reality show, “Paris Hilton’s Dubai BFF”.

During her chat with local media, the hotel heiress said, “I respect the culture in Dubai — it’s much classier than Las Vegas.”

Paris added, “I love the way they dress here. I’m excited to try the new fashions. I look forward to wearing what they wear in Dubai. Women here are so beautiful. I love the culture in Dubai.”
