Keep your ears perked, ladies and gentlemen, because the musical talents of Paris Hilton are heading back to the airwaves. And this time, she's teaming up with her musician boyfriend, Benji Madden, to make it happen.

Paris tells E! News exclusively that the duo have been working in her new recording studio (conveniently located in her Beverly Hills mansion), writing songs—including a theme for her upcoming MTV show My New BFF.

"Benji and I have been working hard on it," Paris said. "He's helping me write the lyrics for the song and then I'll sing it, too." 

The reality show, which films Paris as she tries to train a new best friend among a pool of 20 contestants, ended taping earlier this week and is set to air mid-September, says the heiress.

And while she's excited to perform her own theme song, that's just the beginning. Remember that album Paris she released two years ago? Well, you guessed it—she wants a follow-up.

"Definitely," she says. "I'll have another album come out, for sure. I just don't know when yet. I only have the summer off, then I'll be taping another season of BFF. But an album is something I'll do."

Maybe she'll pick up a few more musical tips when she meets up with Benji in Knoxville, Tenn., where his band is performing for the July 4 holiday—a trip we presume she's taking for "research" purposes, of course.
