KOREANS AND RUSSIANS IN AMERICA HAVE SNOOKI AND JERSEY SHORE TO THANK FOR THEIR NEW SERIES


Snooki can put boyfriend-hunting on the back burner for awhile – she’s got a new sweetheart – her Pomeranian puppy Gia. While “Jersey Shore’s” days are probably numbered, it’s amazing how the MTV show has inspired other reality series. Lifetime has ordered 12 episodes of “Brighton Beach” – it’s described as a Russian version of Jersey Shore, but it focuses on several families and multiple generations. “K-Town” (see photo above) follows a group of young Korean Americans in LA’s Koreatown and they’re hoping the show will be picked up by a major network. No word yet on the “Persian Version.” We love these peeks into subcultures.

Snooki has thrown caution to the winds and landed herself a new boyfriend – Jeff Miranda. He’s prize guido material and normal sized – that means a lot taller than she is. She looks deliriously happy.

Contract Jersey Shore Money MTV Negotiation Pauly D Snooki The Situation

HOW MANY OF THE JERSEY SHORE ORIGINALS RETURN TO WORK, REMAINS TO BE SEEN

We’re not certain that the phrase “the cream is rising to the top” is appropriate in this case, but the most popular of the Jersey Shore gang are making out like bandits in their new contract negotiations. The whole gang refused to work on the show last weekend until they have signed contracts. MTV wants the incredibly successful show to continue into a 3rd season and they are arguing that if the stars are wealthy they won’t be so likeable or appealing. That doesn’t fly with the Jersey kids who want to cash in while they can. Snooki, The Situation, and Pauly D are the most popular of the group. (Note they are seated dead center in The View photo above) They are expected to at least triple their current $10,000 per episode salaries. Snooki and The Situation have already settled on deals they like and Pauly D will soon follow. If the “less important” members of the Jersey cast ask for too much, they might not be invited to return. And if there is a big difference in salaries, how will it affect their relationships? MTV has a lot to consider.

Bobble Head Jersey Shore Pauly D Snooki Talking Doll The Situation

JERSEY SHORE DIVIDED OVER TALKING DOLLS

Rivalry is starting to rear it’s ugly bobble head and it’s dividing up the Jersey Shore kids. Only three of the eight reality stars have been chosen to be made into bobble headed talking dolls. It’s clear that The Situation, Snooki, and Pauly D are the break-out stars of the show and those left out – Vinny, Sammi Sweetheart, Jenni JWoWW, Ronnie, and Angelina – are not happy. The dolls, by Funko, are now on sale for 11.99.

"Fist Pumping for love" Boyfriend Emilio Masella Heidi Montag Jersey Shore Reality Shows Snooki Spencer Pratt

SNOOKI’S EXBOYFRIEND EMILIO HAS THE LAST LAUGH

“Jersey Shore’s” Snooki’s worst nightmare is coming true! She dumped her boyfriend of three months, Emilio Masella, after accusing him of using her to become famous. RadarOnline is reporting that Emilio is now the star of his own dating show “Fist Pumping For Love” and it’s being produced by Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag. Snooki will really be aggravated when she learns that Emilio ‘s show might one- up hers by ending up on a major network. They started taping last week and Emilio has been bombarded by pretty women, but he says he’s “holding out for a 12 – not a 10.”

Boyfriend Jersey Shore JWoww Miami Snooki

SNOOKI KNOWS THAT HAVING FUN IS THE BEST REVENGE

Snooki and JWoww strolled around Miami Beach, sipping Red Bull and checking out the guys. JWoww knows Snooki can use some cheering up – she was more upset by her split with her muscular boyfriend Emilio Masella than she let on. She had arranged to have him appear a few times on “Jersey Shore” and get paid $1000 per appearance. But that wasn’t enough, he used her name to open OTHER doors (he really wanted to be a TV star) and eventually she decided he was just a user. Now she’s vowed to be more suspicious.

Coach Jersey Shore Snooki

SNOOKI AND COACH ARE GOING INTO BUSINESS TOGETHER

Jersey Shore’s Snooki was thrilled with the Coach bag she bought at an outlet store, and she carried it everywhere. The Coach people noticed and, surprisingly, they made her an offer. They invited her to design her own signature Coach bag. She’s gotten a lot of endorsement offers, but this was too good to pass up. She’s designing a limited edition bag that will be sold only in Coach stores, starting this summer. What NEXT?

Jersey Shore Snooki

ON MARCH 20 THE JERSEY SHORE KIDS WILL DISAPPEAR

Just maybe, MTV has a surprise up their sleeve for the Jersey Shore cast. The crew has been told to be prepared to start shooting the new season on March 20, according to Radar Online, and they are expected to have their passports, blood tests, and background checks attended to. Again, there will be no internet, TV, or cell phones permitted. Rumors that MTV has a house ready in Miami for their occupancy have been rampant, but when you think about it, that’s not a logical choice. The Jersey Shore cast is SO familiar to everyone in America that they would be treated like celebrities. What makes them interesting is a peek into their ordinary lives. So they HAVE to leave the country. A foreign environment could be the catalyst for some hilarious unexpected “situations.” It’s going to be quite a challenge to keep their location a secret.

JERSEY SHORE: YOU CAN HAVE A SNOOKI OF YOUR OWN

Photo Credit: Pacific Coast News

Snooki, Sammi, Vinny, and the rest of the Jersey Shore gang are back in Los Angeles, but so far only ONE of them can brag that a doll is being made in their image. Snooki, considered the break-out star of the group, will be immortalized with her own lookalike doll. She’s absolutely thrilled and the doll will have her signature look – heavy eye make up, a leopard print dress, and of course, the pouf hair. The Jersey doll is being rushed into stores while it’s still hot.

Jenni JWoww Jersey Shore Sammi "Sweetheart" Snooki Weight

UNLIKE MOST OF US, THE “JERSEY SHORE” GIRLS ARE HAPPY WITH THEMSELVES

The women of MTV’s “Jersey Shore” have perhaps forever changed the concept of Italian American women that “The Sopranos” reinforced. The Shore girls, Jenni JWoww, Sammi Sweetheart, and Snooki, have been described as “predatorial, mean spirited, and crass” – much like their male counterparts. The guys on the show seem to primp far more than the girls do. Most noteworthy of all, the girls are all voluptuous and full figured. And PROUD of it. They eat what and when they want, without a thought to caloric content. The “Jersey” girls have done more to promote normal sized woman than all the full-figured models (like Emme) put together.
