Reality TV star Paris Hilton is rumoured to be eager to take part in the next season of 'Celebrity Big Brother' in the UK.
The Sun reports that the socialite is being offered over £300,000 to take part in the in the Channel 4 programme scheduled for January 2008.
Paris, who has starred in her own reality show 'The Simple Life' in the US, is reportedly hoping to raise her profile in the UK through such an appearance, and to put an end to her image of being a spoilt party girl.
A 'Big Brother' source tells The Sun that the show's bosses are in talks to rope in Hilton.
"We told Paris, 'Name your price'. We're in firm talks, and it would be a fantastic coup to get her," the Sun quoted an insider, as saying.
Another source said that Hilton wants to disprove her 'bimbo' and 'wild child reputation'.
"She wants people to see that she's not a bimbo or a wild child," the source said.
"She would easily be the star of the show - but obviously she won't do it unless the money is right," the source added.
