Spring Break For Jersey Shore

Whoops! Things nearly end badly for Jersey Shore's Deena as she slips while dancing on a platform in Las Vegas

It seems that St. John's students arent the only ones enjoying spring break!  Jersey Shore castmembers Deena Cortese and Pauly "D" DelVecchio hosted MTV's Spring Break this year in Las Vegas.  It seemed that both were having splash of a time until Deena almost made a splash herself.  While dancing and enjoying her new fame Deena slipped on the platform and was very close to ending up in the pool!  Luckly she was able to steady herself and was quickly back up and dancing again.  While Deena was playing with her crowd of fans co-star Pauly D was working the mix-table.  MTV's Spring Break is known to be the place to be for college students during and by choosing stars of the biggest party show on television right now I'm postive this years will be no let down.   

Catch! Pauly D, who DJed at the event, watches as Deena plays ball with the fans

Snooki Domination

You can't turn the corner these days without seeing or hearing about Nicole Pollizi.  Snooki as she is better known as from MTV's hit reality show Jersey Shore is sweeping the nation.  She has appeared in commercials, television shows, sports events, she has even published her own book and now she will appear on one of the most influential magazines in America.  Rolling Stone magazine will feature America's #1 Party Girl in all of her pickle eating glory. 

However, Nicole's interview expresses how she really feels about her portrayl on the show.  "If I do something stupid, which is pretty much the whole time, I hate it," she told the magazine. "I just hate it. Obviously, they're only going to put the good stuff in, and the good stuff is us drunk, so all I'm seeing is me drunk and falling down. That's how I am when I party, but some of the stuff I do is, like, 'Really, Nicole?' I look like a freakin' alcoholic. I'm like, 'You're sweating, your makeup is running, you look gross.' I just look like s**t." 

Although she seems humiliated from the show Snooki says she is not done with reality television and will do whatever spin-offs of the show come her way.  Snooki hopes to one day build an empire, and turn up like Jessica Simspon and her brands, stating a normal job is just not in the cards for her.

See What Goes Down!

Jersey Gets RAW

Even if you have never seen an episode of the Jersey Shore it is likely you have heard about Snook's infamous blow to the face during the first season.  Well it seems that her little "tiff" at the bar has inspired a new side of Nicole Polizzi as she is now scheduled to make an apperance on next weeks episode of USA's WWE Monday Night Raw.  It is not clear yet if she intends to wrestle of not but it is certain that she will be involved in some way.

Now Snooki is not the first Jersey Shore guidette to take on the ring fellow castmates Jenni Farley (JWoww) and Angelina Pivarnick have already appeared on TNA iMPACT!  JWoww showed her skills in the ring by taking on iMPACT wrestler Cookie in October.  She racked up a nice 15,000 for the right and said she enjoyed her time immensly yet has not had another shot at it.  Angelina on the otherhand seems to want to make a career out of it.  After her first match Angelina is hooked, so hooked she is starting her training next week at the Independent Wrestling Foundation in West Paterson, NJ.  Unfortunetly her training is not in time for her next apperance on the show scheduled to air this Thursday; Angelina will be fighting in a six-knockout tag team match.

 Although she lacks professional training im sure her match will be no problem compared to the fights she had with her previous castmates; one including newest wrestler Snooki and may i add I think we all know who came out victorious (5'3 with the poof).  These Jersey girls pack a lot of punch!    

"I was Snooki"

It has become a guilty pleasure for almost every age; whether they’d like to admit it or not.  The MTV produced recent “hit” The Jersey Shore has millions of viewers tuning in each week to see the cast raise hell at the infamous party beach Seaside Heights, New Jersey.  The episodes are filled with hookups, breakups, parties and fights all that you would expect from MTV, but who was the mastermind that came up with such a controversial show?  The original “Snooki” herself, SallyAnn Salsano.
SallyAnn Salsano was formerly the creator and executive producer of a completely different genre of television on HGTV the home and garden network.  Salsano was the originator of the reality design competition Design Star, in a complete twist of irony SallyAnn was fired and replaced by popular CBS producer Mark Burnett, who is known for shows such as Survivor and Are You Smarter Than A Fifth Grader?, the same day that The Jersey Shore aired.  The show has set records for the network with an astonishing 8.9 viewers the highest ever ratings for an MTV series.  Viewers love it so much a fourth season has just been signed and is rumored to be set in Italy this spring.
To anyone that knows her Salsano is said to be the epitome of a guido or guidette in her case.  Cast member Pauly DelVecchio says “she belongs in the house with us”. She states, “…at the end of the day, I'm an Italian girl from Long Island, my dad worked in sanitation, both of my parents drive Cadillacs, my dad wears a diamond-encrusted Yankee symbol around his neck. It doesn't get more guido than in my house. People are like, 'You're making fun of them.' And I'm like, 'No, I am them’…. "I'm not poking fun, this is really what it is. It's not something I'm embarrassed of. I was those kids. I was Snooki. I woke up and was like, 'Oh, that was a crazy night.' That's what you do."
SallyAnn Salsano has created a cultural sensation that has tied in her life as well as a cast members all can laugh at and enjoy.  She will continue to produce the Jersey Shore as well as two new spin-offs of the show including three of the original cast.  I think it’s safe to say that she can’t go wrong when it comes to entertaining TV.
