Finding a loser was tricky business on this week's episode of True Beauty. The contestants were taught a magic trick by Penn and Teller then were prompted to reveal the secret in a People magazine interview. Who spilled the beans? Hardly anybody, which made choosing the loser very difficult.



As with the earlier challenge, the bottom two were chosen based on their performance in the obvious test, not their response to the moral challenge. Airy Amy managed to win over Penn and Teller and thus earned herself a free pass and a spot on stage with them that night. Regina landed in the bottom because she revealed the trick before she performed it and Michael lost on his lack of charisma. But since neither of them revealed the trick to the journalist, the judges had to take other acts into consideration.

Both Regina and Michael were caught talking smack about previous winner Liz but the judges thought Regina's mocking impersonation was much harsher than Michael's musings. But if you remember, Michael stole part of his costume in last week's challenge so that leveled the field.

In the end, they decided to give them both one last chance to redeem themselves. On the way out of the hotel, both were confronted with the sight of a very drunk man getting into a car at the valet stand. Regina was horrified and called for the valet to stop the guy but Michael simply smiled and shook his head as the man drove away. He then imitated the man's drunken walk for the valet and that was the final straw. Michael was sent home and at least he had the decency to look mortified when he watched the footage.

But Michael's actions weren't even close to the dumbest moments on tonight's show. Come back tomorrow to see who made that list.
