Reality Show Concept:

A group of gorgeous guys and gals live together in a Los Angeles mansion. They believe they are participating in a beauty contest that is judged solely on the outer appearance. What they don't know is that their inner beauty is also being judged. Producers sneakily put them through moral tests throughout the competition. Three judges eliminate one person each week after secretly observing the behavior of the contestants. When a contestant is eliminated, they learn the truth about the show and see a video montage of their behavior during the competition.
