Have you ever seen something so obvious that you tell yourself "I would never fall for that." Well I said the same thing, then fell for one of the stupidest pranks ever. Find out how Howie Mandel of America's Got Talent pulled a fast one on me and got me to do something that most people would consider to be "Extremely Stupid."

Howie Mandel Pranks Michael O'Brien on AGT!

HImagine you are walking down the street and something happens to you that you know doesn't exactly feel right, yet you dismiss it as you just maybe being paranoid or overthinking it. Imagine you find out after the fact that that small thing you thought wasn't a big deal turned out to be extremely ridiculous. You told yourself "That would never happen to me," but then it totally did! WHY?

People ask me, "How did you know know that was Howie???" I mean, I knew it was not really a female. I assumed it was a Transgender woman who just happened to be working for AGT. I encounter, LGBT people regularly as an entertainer so this was just another day at the office as far as I am concerned. The added fact that I was nervous as I was preparing for my audition as well as the fact that I wanted to be polite during my interview shut down my sense of reality for just a moment. 
I was pranked pretty good by Howie Mandel of AGT! He dressed like a woman and made me put ink on my own face. The ruse was "This ink will help us match the fingerprints to our system. The camera will see the prints and will link your file so the staff doesn't have to do it manually." I was thinking to myself, "THIS IS BULLS***!" However, what if I was wrong. I mean, this technology isn't too farfetched.

After the encounter I immediately realized "This is so stupid I have totally been tricked." The staff politely informed me that it was all in good fun as Howie Mandel was simply doing a prank video for the show. I felt soooooo embarrassed as this was the stupidest thing ever. Here I am with ink on my face, THAT I PUT THERE MYSELF! The worst part.... it was permanent. I was scrubbing my face for about an hour after that. It was fun as hell in hindsight, but at the time, I felt like a total idiot!
