Bikini Girl has no clothes
(Season 8)

She created big drama at her audition by showing up in a two-piece and clashing with Kara over who did a better cover of ''Vision of Love.'' So it was not a huge surprise then, when Bikini Girl* turned out to be a less-than-cooperative presence during the group-performance phase of Hell Week. Citing back problems, the controversial trollop hid under the comforter in her hotel bedroom and threatened not to perform, much to the chagrin of her teammates, Lauren Barnes (pictured, yellow dress), hippie chick Rose Flack (orange sweater), and eventual finalist Jasmine Murray (red blouse). In the end, though, Bikini Girl couldn't resist the spotlight, taking the stage in a shoulder-less ensemble that was not quite distracting enough to prevent the judges from noticing her woeful rendition of Duffy's ''Mercy.'' And just like that, a fameosexual's ''journey'' came to a sputtering end.

* Not her real name, but does that matter?
