True Beauty - Season 2

Vegas, baby! Executive producers Tyra Banks and Ashton Kutcher hit Sin City in season two of this fun reality romp to determine the TRUE BEAUTY of five gorgeous gals and five handsome males who undergo a series of challenges to decide who is truly the most beautiful. But there's a twist: While the contestants think they are being judged solely on their outer appearances, competing to be featured as the next "Face of Vegas," they are actually being evaluated for their inner beauty. The judges will observe and critique the contestants' behavior and eliminate one person each week. Only after elimination is the truth about the show revealed and the ousted contestant is shown a video montage of their "ugly" behavior as captured by a hidden camera. At the end of eight episodes, a winner will be declared - someone who is truly beautiful inside and out.

Magic impresarios Penn and Teller teach the nine remaining contestants a magic trick and swear them to secrecy. The contestant who performs the trick best will be featured in Penn and Teller's live show in Las Vegas. In addition, a reporter from People magazine will interview each contestant, trying to get them to spill the beans on how the trick is done. Who will crack? The judges have hidden cameras and add one more twist to test the ethics of the lowest scorers. Who will be eliminated?

The remaining eight contestants conduct televised "man-on-the-street" interviews with passers-by on the Vegas Strip, trying to demonstrate their best communication skills and their ability to put others at ease. Which of them will break the rules by sneaking a peek at the interview questions in advance? Can any of the contestants correctly pronounce the word "cacophony"? And, most important, can they exhibit poise when those interviews are relentlessly criticized by a focus group of hard-to-impress people? Meanwhile, at the hotel hot tub, the tension mounts during a heated argument about pole dancing, and a shocking twist changes the game.

The remaining seven contestants need to create a tasty ad campaign for the Planet Hollywood buffet in a photo shoot featuring select food items - ranging from ice cream to live crabs - and their nearly nude bodies. Who creates a campaign so tasteless that the judges find it hard to swallow? Who freaks out claiming to look "fat"? And who fails the hidden camera test that shows which contestants will dig through a messy garbage can to help someone find a lost engagement ring? Tune in to find out.

The remaining six contestants must quickly bone up on Vegas facts and tourism tips as they prepare to be tour bus guides. Who frets over reading the voluminous notes and confides that it's been 10 years since reading a book? Which contestant confidently tells the Vegas visitors that "the Venetian Hotel is so romantic, it's like...you're in Spain." Who can't pronounce Bugsy Siegel's name? And who tries to change their score in the competition when offered the chance?

It's down to the final four contestants, and this week's hidden camera inner beauty challenge puts each contestant in the proximity of a pregnant woman (actually, she's an actress pretending to be pregnant) who is drinking and smoking. Will any of the beauties speak up about this health hazard? The "outer beauty" challenge - to be the best blackjack dealer at the high rollers' table - proves to be poor timing for one contestant who drank all day poolside, and a mortifying experience for another who doesn't know the rules of the game and has trouble with math. The winner of the blackjack challenge is chosen by the pit boss and will go on to the finale. Who will be sent home?

Only three beauties have made it to the finale. The judges pair the contestants with a real-life celebrity who parties with them all night, but, instead of getting to crash back at the hotel after a long night, the exhausted contestants are whisked to a new location to shoot a commercial for Las Vegas, and they must memorize lines, learn blocking and be at their absolute best. One completely cracks from lack of sleep. And, in a stunning game-changing moment, Vanessa Minnillo confronts the contestants and shows them exactly what the "spy" cameras have captured when the contestants were unaware. Who epitomizes both inner and outer beauty? Who will be crowned the winner, getting $100,000 and a photo featured in People magazine? Find out in the season finale.
