Snooki on Vinny Guadagnino Feelings: So Lame

$

0

Snooki admits she had feelings for Vinny Guadagnino on Jersey Shore.

This is not surprising to those of us who have watched the show since the beginning, but also not something she likes to be reminded about in retrospect.

On tonight's new episode, Snooki, who's still with Jionni LaValle, wishes she hadn't professed her love for Guadagnino during a raucous club outing.

Vinny and Snooki Pic

"I'm embarrassed. F--k my life," Snooki says. "I like him, but it's not a good look for me to start to have feelings [as] he's bringing home all these girls."

"He tells me he's not going to bring anyone else back home so we can cuddle and then he brings somebody home. It just makes me look stupid."

Though their romance didn't pan out, all is not lost.

At least she got it in at least once, ended up with another boyfriend, and is on the cover of Rolling Stone for some reason. Yes, really. She's on it.

Freaking Snooki. That's all we have to say.


Jersey Shore Recap: Team Sober FTW!

The Situation got served in the Jersey Shore house's latest prank war, while revealing himself to be an even dirtier human being than previously believed.

Dude's more revolting even than the origin of the toilet clog, which was finally kind of revealed. Elsewhere, Snooki sort of admitted her lovey feelings for Vinny.

Sammi also came back to Seaside Heights. D-d-d-d-done!

As always, THG has broken down some of the top Jersey Shore quotes and scenes from the episode in our trademark +/- recap below. Let's get to it:

I Wanna Cuddle

SO SWEET: Too bad Vinny wasn't game for Snook's arrangement.

Snooki tells Vinny not to bring any girls home from the club so they can cuddle. Minus 5, girl, because you bring plenty of stuff home from the club too.

The first time you see an ex is always awkward. "Hey Sam," Ron said, "You look good." Sammi's reply? "You look pale." That HURTS on this show. Plus 9.

Deena says Sammi’s “hystatic,” which means “super-happy and … really happy.” Minus only 2, because at least she knows it's a made-up word. We think.

Ronnie awkwardly hovers around Sammi at the club. "I don't want to smother you," he said. Sammi then asks, "Are you leaving?" BURN again. Plus 6.

Snooki, on Vinny's package: “I actually named his penis Moby Dick, and I would love to try again to see if it would work.” Minus 8, because ... shudder.

Even though they live together 24/7, Pauly D still could not believe the pink top JWoww put on, his eyes widening to the size of dinner plates. Plus 4.

Oh That Face

D-D-D-DONE: So great/terrible to have you back, Sam.

The tension boils with Sam. It was inevitable. Minus 7.

Ron sums up our feelings: "I'm done you're done we're done I'm done you're done, d-d-d-one done done. Like, I don't even know at this point!" Plus 12.

Vinny's Dominican girl wants 10 of his babies. Is that a plus? Minus 4.

JWoww has got to go, so she squats behind a car, the second time she's relieved herself in public this season. The first on Deena's foot, though. Plus 10.

Snooki laments that whining about her feelings for Vinny only made her look stupid. Minus 9, because the only shock would be if she didn't look stupid.

Anyway, it's time for the weekly battle with the toilet, and as you can see by the Plus 7-worthy pic below, Ronnie is gonna get in there and get after it!

Preparing For Battle

READY FOR BATTLE: The toilet is a formidable foe.

When Ron's bid to break the stoppage fails, the plumbers are called in, at which point they unearth a vomit-worthy piece of brown-smeared cotton. Minus 6.

Plus 3 for the consensus that it belonged to Vinny and not one of the girls, since he wears [bleeping] something. Plus 5 for you if you can explain what it is.

Seriously, we have no idea what that is, thanks to all the bleeps.

Possible quote of the year: Cute girl: I’m gay. She’s my girlfriend. Vinny: For real? Girl: [nods] Vinny: Are you fully gay? Girl: No. Vinny: Awesome! Plus 16.

When you have to check a girl's ID, Mike, she's probably too young no matter what the DOB says. Minus 4, because Sitch has to be pushing 40 himself.

After last week's epic prank, Ronnie, Sammi and Snooki (Team Sober) punk Mike by hiding cheese in his bed. Like three kinds, too. Plus pepper flakes! Plus 8.

Minus 25 because not only does Sitch fall for it, believing his hookup smells like cheese, he thinks "oral pleasure" can't give you an STD. Run, ladies. Run.

TOTAL: +10. SEASON TOTAL: +215.

Former Jersey Shore star and current Z-list celebrity annoyance Angelina Pivarnick got flat out CRUSHED this week in her debut on TNA IMPACT wrestling. Nice.

In North Carolina last week, Ange, who signed a deal to wrestle on the Spike TV program, decided to talk smack and deliver a kick to Miss Velvet Sky.

Jersey Shore Recap: Welcome to the Guido Circus!

This week on Jersey Shore, Vinny and Pauly road tripped it to Staten Island, JWoww grew suspicious of Roger, and in the world of Ronnie and Sammi ... sigh.

Where do we even begin. Like Pauly D, we may kill ourselves if this goes on much longer. So what happened after Sammi's shady texts to Guido MacGyver?

As always, THG breaks down some of the top Jersey Shore quotes and scenes from the episode in our official, trademarked +/- recap below. Let's get it ON!

Mauling Sammi

OH YEAH, BABY: Ron and Sam are so in love for these 12 seconds.

Let's just get this out of the way early. Ronnie and Sammi stop fighting their feelings for each other. Things are "so different" now. It's been like a week. Minus 9.

All is well, until Arvin, who The Situation terms "a jacked-up Guido MacGyver," tells him Sammi was texting him to meet at the club. THG smells drama. Plus 5.

Ron: "We're finished. I'm done. Have fun with the girls ... I had every chance to bring the f*%king hottest girl in the club home but I didn't because I was crying like a f*%king bitch, over f*%king you!" Sam: "Me too!" Minus 8.

The Snitch-uation definitely started $h!t, but it was warranted. Plus 4.

Ronnie is a scary f*%king dude. He follows Sammi into her room, where she insists Arvin is just a friend. Then he keeps hounding her. Then he physically won't let her leave. This will play well at his assault trial. Minus 11.

Eh, at least he didn't throw any beds. That we know of. Plus 3.

Plus 10 for the episode's actual title, "GTF (Gym, Tan, Find Out Who Sammi Is Texting)." That was courtesy of Pauly, as was GTI: Gym, tan, I'm not buyin' it!

Duck Phone Blunder

DUCK AND COVER: JWoww may wish she didn't call out Rog.

JWoww feels that Roger may be acting shady, then jumps the gun with a rambling voicemail. Hard to blame her for assuming the worst, but Rog is no Tom. Minus 4.

The Situation lets JWoww's dogs roam free while the roommates are gone. Fittingly, The Situation is a dog who roams free while the roommates are gone. Plus 8.

Minus 5 for the obligatory fecal issue resulting from Sitch's Doggy Day Care.

Snooki: "Whoever I have babies with, he's gotta be Italian, 'cause the last name needs to have a vowel in it. And I want my kid's last name to have a vowel in it. And be tan, obviously." Names without vowels are a bitch to pronounce, too. Plus 7.

Wonder how Jionni feels about this Stefano guy. At least she called him Nick. Wash.

There was a water balloon fight. Being 4'3", the girls get annihilated. Plus 5.

Sitch gives Snooki a facial. Amazingly, not the way you're thinking. Plus 4.

Vinny Guadagnino Shirtless

READY FOR A TAN: Vinny prepares to channel his inner Snooki.

Vinny and Pauly D road trip it to Staten Island for an epic feast of Italian food and an Uncle Nino sighting. Plus 12, because this is truly the Guido Circus.

Vinny decides that despite being the only authentic Italian in the Jersey Shore house, he's too pale for his surroundings. No, they're too orange. Minus 6.

As he preps for his spray tan, he says, "I'm standing here in my skintight briefs. I look like a total tool." Note to Vin: It's not the briefs, dog. Minus 15.

JWoww on the offerings at the club: "The guys look really good from afar, but once they come up to our table, they are jack-hideous." Pretty much. Plus 7.

Roger and JWoww get into a fight, but he's not too mad. When he asks for some space, he's somewhat reasonable! See, Ron?! It can be done! Plus 8.

Aquarium director: "What kind of animal is a penguin?" Sammi: "A mammal." Minus 17. It's a bird. "That's what I thought," Ronnie chimes in. Plus 3.

TOTAL: +18. SEASON TOTAL: +233.

Jersey Shore Recap: A House Divided, Absurd

$

Abraham Lincoln famously said that "A house divided against itself cannot stand." Yet a Jersey Shore house divided against itself only stands to be more entertaining.

In this week's installment, friction between Ronnie and Sammi forces peeps to choose sides, while a stalker returns, Deena wears all denim and so much more.

As always, THG breaks down some of the top Jersey Shore quotes and scenes from the episode in our official, patented +/- recap below. Let's get it ON!

Vinny and Snooki Photo

Comment rendered unnecessary.

Vinny and Snooki grow closer on a lunch date. Cute, but Minus 10 for the profound words emblazoned on her pants, advice guidos often take literally, deeply.

Later, Vinny decides to get his ears pierced at the Shore Store. First it was the spray tan, now this. At least he's going all out in pursuit of Tool-dom. Plus 7.

Pauly D's hookup is thwarted when Erin’s brother shows up. This seems to happen a lot on Jersey Shore. Minus 5, 'cause celebrities are easy to track down.

Deena: "Let’s be real. You didn’t come here for pastries and like, coffee, you came here to do sex with Pauly and Vinny. You embarrassed yourself." Plus 9.

Snooki is totally Vin's backup hookup. Minus 6 for him making this so obvious, but let's be real. It's Snooki. How is she going to be somebody's Option A?

At Aztec, crazy stalker Danielle shows up once again. “You want me to punch you?” she asks Pauly D. “Do whatever you gotta do," he responds. Plus 11.

Pauly D on a potential cougar hookup: "This woman is not a grenade. This woman is an atomic bomb about to blow." Eh, they've done worse, so Minus 3.

Situation: "It just so happens Deena defies the laws of intelligence. I never thought someone would make Snooki look like a rocket scientist." Plus 4.

JWoww Reacts

When Ronnie's mom drunk-dials you ... this is the reaction.

JWoww intercepts a duck phone call from Ronnie's intoxicated mom. Plus 6. That's not awkward at all. It also indirectly explains a lot about you-know-who.

Connie, Ron's mom, also talks to Deena, hilariously, before Ron gets on the duck and tells her to knock if off because SHE'S embarrassing herself. Minus 5.

Sitch: "Wow. Ronnie's mom's gangsta." Plus 4.

The Situation takes a nap in the dressing room during his shift at the Shore Store. Minus 3, because they should at least pretend they care about working.

Deena's cleavage-baring all-denim outfit is an all-timer, even for this show. It's like she's an early '90s prostitute that could only shop at thrift stores. Plus 4.

Apparently if a girl BREAKS UP WITH A GUY, she’s still not allowed to talk or text any other guys. Even if said guy cheated on her and is abusive. Minus 10.

Sam and Ron Argue

These two really need to just neutral it out.

JWoww: “Can you guys like, maybe neutral it? Because, like, you hit up a girl in Miami?” They may have to negative it at this point, but good point. Minus 5.

Pauly: "They already neutraled that … I say they start with a zero-zero, because he admitted his wrongs to that. This girl is still never admitting." Plus 6.

Sammi now insists that she never told Arvin she wanted to hang out with him, even though this contradicts what she told Ronnie earlier. SHADY. Minus 7.

Pauly is suspicious that Sammi has never mentioned Arvin, even though she now says they are good friends. Moreover ... what kinda name is Arvin? Plus 3.

The Situation actually gets Arvin on the phone and starts to interrogate him about Sammi. Man, this guy doesn't know when to butt out ... ever. Minus 4.

Ron confronts Sammi: “You’re the biggest liar I ever met in my life.” Eh, maybe so, but what she did was 10 times more innocent than his antics. Plus 8.

Minus 5, though, Sam. Because who voluntarily dates this clown?

TOTAL: -1. SEASON TOTAL: +232.

Angelina Pivarnick Booted From Nightclub (Again)

Angelina Pivarnick, the girl from Jersey Shore who left the house in each of the first two seasons, was 86'd from another nightclub over the weekend.

She was just doing what she does best - getting into an altercation with another chick - when patrons began complaining about Ange's behavior.

She and The Situation were co-hosting an event at Club La Vela in Panama City, Fla., until she was "rude to patrons and staff" and was escorted out.

Sitch and Angelina

Sources inside the establishment say that the final straw was when the former reality star "drunkenly tried to fight another girl in the V.I.P. area."

Angie left without further incident and isn't permanently banned from the joint, but still says she's considering taking legal action against the club.

She claims she was never in a fight (where would we get that idea) and is pissed at club security for putting her in a headlock for no reason.

Perhaps she should stick to her other pastimes, such as SANCTIONED fights in the wrestling ring or just calling Snooki a fat troll. Much better.

Will "One Shot" Case Keep Ronnie Magro From Filming Jersey Shore in Italy?

Will Ronnie Magro be allowed to film Jersey Shore's fourth season in Italy despite the pending litigation against him? His lawyer is trying to make it happen.

Joseph A. Raia told a judge that the reality star will submit an application for a pretrial intervention program in connection with a pending assault charge.

The charge is in connection with an 18-month-old incident in which Ron cold cocked Stephen Izzo with one punch after an exchange at a Seaside Heights.

Ronnie Shirtless

The incident was broadcast in an episode titled, fittingly, "One Shot." The court application would allow Ronnie to tape the show's fourth season in Italy.

While not admitting guilt, the applicant (Ron-Ron) just has to stay out of trouble for a defined time period (at least a year) to avoid a criminal record.

Magro's next court date is June 6. It's unknown if his bid will be accepted, but hard to see him being denied the right to film abroad for a few weeks.

Jersey Shore - One Shot Fight

Jersey Shore Scoop: Tonight's Episode, Spinoffs, Season Four in Italy

$

Jersey Shore is headed to Italy to film Season Four this spring, but not before an epic finale this evening. Or at least one that will tie up some loose ends.

Co-creator and executive producer SallyAnn Salsano spoke to EW about tonight's season-ender, the coming international edition, TWO spinoffs and more.

There's certainly a lot to discuss, to let's get to the excerpts below:

Ronnie and Sammi Fight, Take 12

On Ronnie and Sammi’s epic fight: "I spent more time with Ronnie crying than I know what to do with. I genuinely love these kids and I get attached."

"As it’s all going down, it’s as real as it gets."

On editing the show: "You guys see seven minutes of [fighting] a week, I’m seeing 14 hours. Once you say something out loud you’re on the hook for it."

"It’s not so much advising them as sometimes throwing it out there as a question during the interviews: “How did this go down? How do you think I see it?”

"And sometimes by them talking it out, then it becomes real. Their feelings for each other are so strong that it sometimes overrides right and wrong."

On Sammi leaving, then coming back: "She needed space, she needed to get away. At the time she really didn’t know if she was going to be back."

On Deena's return: "All signs point to Deena to coming back. The intent was for her to get along with everyone." Beyond that, "we’re happy with our cast."

On the grossness of this season: "It’s what they’re like. They waited days to call Danny to fix the toilet. I wouldn’t wait that long, but it’s not my house."

Just Gross, Right?

On going to Italy: "I think it’s going to be fun. Just getting them there will be entertaining to watch. I have fun watching them go to a store in America."

"I think there everything will be fun. Communication will be funny. It’s a culture that they’re interested in, and it’s probably different than they think."

On Pauly D's spinoff: "That was so much fun. I never laughed so hard in my life. Both [the Jersey Shore spin-offs] feel very different from Jersey Shore."

"It’s funny to see them in their own world. It’s Pauly in the clubs and his home-life with his best friends, his posse. His head of security, his manager."

On the Snooki and JWoww spinoff: "That’s another one we were in stitches the whole time. I always call it Snooki and JWoww Save the World."

"It’s just letting them loose in the universe. JWoww wants to move out, Snooki has to get out from her parent’s wing, so they move in together."

"It’s real. They’re really buying a house. This is all new to Snooki - buying toilet paper, and paying a bill - things that seem normal to you and I."

On tonight's season three finale: "Everything you thought about every person comes true. You see everybody’s true colors in a good and bad way."

"You’ll see some resolution. Normally, the last episode is just getting out of the house and saying goodbye. But this episode ties up some loose ends."


Jersey Shore Season Finale Recap: GET OUT! I AM DONE! DONE!!!!!!

Jersey Shore's third season ended not with a bang, but with a thud. After 13 weeks, we're as exhausted by Sammi and Ronni as the reality stars themselves.

There were many fun, hilarious times in Season 3, but the enduring image will be that of a couple so desperately in love ... and so loathsome of one another.

As always, THG breaks down some of the top Jersey Shore quotes and scenes in our official +/- recap below. For the last time until Italy, let's DO THIS:

Ronnie and Sammi Fight Again

Breaking up is hard to do. For you. It's REALLY hard for these idiots.

We pick up where we left off last week. OMG, Ron and Sam are SO in a fight! Did she make out with Arvin? Did she text Arvin to meet up? Do we care? Minus 9.

Arvin: "Sam, we made out before." Sam: "No, we haven't." Arvin: "Yeah, we have." Sam: "No, we haven’t." Plus 4, because is there that much of a gray area?

Is it just us or is Vinny becoming kind of an ass these days? Minus 5.

Whoa, the Snitch-uation apologizes to Sam for meddling. Plus 3.

“I feel like the joke’s on me,” Ronnie says. “I feel like a fool.” Yes, but this applies not just to the Arvin matter, but to any scene from 2009-present. Minus 6.

"We treat guests with utmost respect." - Pauly. We'd hate to see what disrespecting them looks like in that case, but it's a nice sentiment, so ... Wash.

Pauly D gets behind the turntables at the end of summer party, while Deena breaks it down on the dance floor with ... Vinny's Uncle Nino. Plus 14 ...

Uncle Nino Grinding!

Life is a grind in a good way for Uncle Nino.

Deena is shocked when Vinny calls her the new Angelina, which in Seaside is basically the equivalent of being called the c-word. Oh, he went there. Minus 8.

Roger proposes to JWoww ... that they be exclusive. Plus 10, 'cause it's quite sweet, and Plus 5 more 'cause people act like he popped the real question here.

JWoww: "I am literally head over heels." Sigh. Wash 'cause she's happy.

Snook: “Whiskey sex is definitely the best ... when a guy can have sex for five hours because he’s so drunk. Or his penis is so drunk." It's Snooki, so Minus 7.

Snook: "Get it all out freaking do everything that you can have sex with an old man and steal a plant and get arrested and do whatever." Huh? Eh, Plus 12.

Things seemed to be okay, but at Karma, Sammi talks to some male friends, which angers Ronnie after all the Arvin stuff ... or at any time, really. Minus 9.

Ronnie: "I'm real, and you're not! F--k you, crazy bitch!" Sammi: "My biggest regret in my life is you!" Plus 6, because they're so in love. Really, they are.

The Last Supper

The Last Supper brought back memories good and bad.

The final family meal is less joyous and more tense this year. Minus 4.

Snooki: "After I run for president, Deena is going to be vice-president. I would get $h!t done in this country. The economy would rise, everyone would be tan, and all of the radios would play house music." Hey, Bush was president, so Plus 4.

Are those sequined butterflies on Roger's jeans?! Minus 12.

Situation: “That rug reminds me of Ron and Sam’s relationship.” Plus 7.

Sammi: "You’re my best friend. You’re the only one who makes laugh, cry, be happy, sad, miserable, excited." So true, save for the good parts. Minus 20.

So they broke up. Which means they're back together by the time you read this. Or have gotten back together only to break up again. Either way, Plus 3.

TOTAL: -14. SEASON THREE TOTAL: +218.

Old Country, New Adventures: Jersey Shore Cast Stoked For Season 4 in Italy

With the dust settling after an emotional Jersey Shore season finale, all eyes are on Italy, where Season 4 of the MTV show will be filmed as early as mid-April.

Having just delivered the best ratings of the three seasons so far, fans are clamoring for more, blowing up the web for news about the fourth season already.

We can tell you for a fact that a new season will happen, it will be filmed in Italy, it will air later this year and has already exasperated plenty of people there.

Jersey Shore Season 3 Cast

Already bombarded with sordid tales of Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi’s soirees with young women, now Italians have to deal with Jersey Shore? Gonna be rough.

MTV is scouting locations in Italy for Jersey Shore's fourth season, which has rankled Italian-American groups. Over there, peeps are just bemused and irritated.

“That’s the last thing we need,” one prominent Italian-American commentator told the Wall Street Journal about the prospect of the cast's trip to the motherland.

They'd better get used to it ... and hide their young daughters. According to MTV News, the cast members of the show are eagerly anticipating the European trip.

Culture shock seems inevitable. Having grown up with wine at the dinner table, most Italians tend to drink in moderation. They also take pride in ... social tact.

Whether America's image can be repaired afterward is unclear, but we'll find out either way. There is clearly no going back now, and the guidos/ettes are stoked.

“For some reason, I really want to go on a gondola ride,” Deena Cortese said.

“Or I would like if we’re in Rome, I'd like to see the love fountain. I’m thinking I’ll steal a coin … maybe I’ll fall in love.” We can only hope, D. We can only hope.

This just in: people love Jersey Shore!

Last week's third season finale drew 7.6 million viewers and garnered a 7.3 rating in the crucial demographic of 12-34-year olds. Those figures are up about 20 percent of last year's season two finale.

Ronnie and Sammi Fight Again

In terms of weekly viewers, Jersey Shore was up 35 percent from its second season average in this same demographic and an incredible 196 percent from its first season.

Next season, the cast is off to Italy. What will this mean for our favorite group of guidos and guidettes? A lot of fighting between Sammi and Ronnie, that's for sure.

Here's the situation: Italians are far from pleased that Jersey Shore cast members have invaded their country.

The show didn't even start filming in the region until today, but the backlash against Snooki and company has been severe across various publications, with one reader of the MTV Italia website going disturbingly far and writing:

"When I see this, I wonder whether Osama Bin Laden had a point."

Whoa there. Not even Sammi is that annoying.

Shore Best Buds

Verbal grenades are being launched in the direction of JWOWW and Snooki.

In the Rome newspaper New Notzie, meanwhile, columnist Roberto Del Bov wrote of Pauly D and his housemates: "They embody the worst stereotypes of Italians, multiplied by thousands and Americanized."

The country's most widely read publication, Corriere della Sera, went on to describe the reality stars as a group with "slicked hair, exaggerated narcissism, boundless love for the family and outlandish eccentricity."

Exactly! Don't worry, Italy, you'll grow to love these people. So much so, we hope you never send them back.

Ronnie Magro: Too "Young" For a Relationship

Ronnie Magro says he's too young for a relationship. Young, immature, unstable, abusive. Call it what you want, he and Sam are done. DONE!!!!! GET OWWWT!!!!!

After the latest blowup between the lovebirds on the Jersey Shore Season 3 finale, Ronnie and the inaccurately nicknamed Sammi "Sweetheart" Giancola broke up.

They're actually still broken up, too, which is like a record for them.

Sammi, Ronnie Pic

"Some people are just toxic to each other," Magro tells Life & Style, saying that despite trying to make the rocky romance work, he just can't take it anymore.

When Sammi lied about hooking up with Arvin, Ron needed space. "Cheating is where I draw the line," he says, adding that he's too young for a relationship.

Ronnie's 25. Sammi's 24, and only hooked up with Arvin at age 21. Like forever ago. "It was like everything at once came tumbling down," she laments.

"We're better off career- and health-wise figuring out what we need for ourselves," Ron says, in probably the most intelligent statement he's ever made.

Jersey Shore Cast to MTV: Pay Up, Suckaz!

$

As we know, the Jersey Shore cast likes to screw anything that moves.

This week, though, they're putting the screws to MTV, refusing to renew their contracts and potentially holding up Season 4 'til they get more cash money.

Sources say the gang knows Jersey Shore Season 4 in Italy could be the last go-'round and wanna get paid now before the (really long) 15 minutes end.

Greasy Situation

BEST PAY UP: This could be a bad contract Situation, bro.

Showing surprising self-awareness, the stars realize the joyride that began in late '09 might be coming to an end and want to milk MTV while they still can.

Another disputed point, on top of salary per episode, is the the number of personal appearances, which can pay up to $40,000 a pop but which MTV restricts.

The network is adamant about limiting that kind of exposure from the cast, but the guidos and/or guidettes wanna jump on dat cash like grenades at Karma.

So far, only Ronnie Magro has signed. Could be a lonely trip to Italy for Ron-Ron if the rest don't get on board fast. Filming is supposed to start this month.

Jersey Shore Season 4 Filming in Italy: Delayed!

No fist-pumping today. Looks like Jersey Shore Season 4 is on hold for now.

Snooki, The Situation, JWoww, Pauly D and crew were due to leave for Italy on April 14, a source confirms to E! News that production has been delayed.

The timetable has been pushed back "at least a few weeks." Why, you ask? Because the Italian government came to its sense and denied Snooki a visa?

That would make a better story, but no. Another reason.

JS Cast

While some Italian officials and commentators blasted the show and its stereotypes and want nothing to do with Jersey Shore, that doesn't appear to be the holdup.

A show source tells E! that producers are having trouble getting permits to film around Florence, though a rep for the Italian Film Commission denies it.

Rather, the network hasn't even applied, if you believe their side.

"We haven't been contacted by anyone from MTV or a manager for the show. Generally speaking, Italy is a film-friendly place," the spokesman says.

Another possible delay? Several castmates' contract squabbling.

Trying to strike while the iron is hot, the stars are reportedly holding out for more money and more freedom to make paid appearances in their free time.

MTV had no comment on the delay, but a network insider says that for various reasons, producers might scrap the idea of basing the season in Italy.

Instead, they'd shorten the stay abroad and "make it more of a vacation than them actually living there," or abandon the overseas trip altogether.

Which means the duck phone could be back in full effect come Memorial Day.

MTV today announced that the network is set to build upon its smash hit Jersey Shore by giving the green light to TWO spinoffs slated to air in early 2012.

Paul “DJ Pauly D” Delvecchio will get his own series, while Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi and Jenni “JWoww” Farley will team up for the other with 495 Productions.

Both begin production later this year after Jersey Shore Season 4, the filming of which was just pushed back due to permit, contract and scheduling issues.

Whoooooooooa Buddy

AWWWW YEAH! Pauly D's got his own show, yeah.

No one has more swagger, one-liners or more distinctive hair than DJ Pauly D. Set to air for 12-episodes, the as-yet-untitled series follows Pauly D’s jet-setting and often hilarious life on the road as one of the country’s most in-demand DJs.

Aiming to become one of the world’s most successful and recognized names in music, viewers will get to see Pauly D chase his dream, with the help of some the best friends he grew up with in Rhode Island by his side.

Shore Best Buds

New Jersey Lawmaker Calls For Anti-Snooki Legislation

Effing Snooki.

That's pretty much the attitude taken by a New Jersey State Senator who is not pleased about a fee given to the Jersey Shore star (a.k.a. Nicole Polizzi) to speak at Rutgers. So not pleased, he's trying to pass a law to prevent an encore.

State Sen. Joe Kyrillos doesn't think Snooki is worth the $32,000 speaking fee she earned to dish on GTL at the state-funded school. His remedy?

He wants students attending public colleges to have the right to opt in or opt out of funding entertainment such as this by instituting mandatory activity fees.

Last week, effing Snooki was paid $2,000 more than the $30,000 Rutgers will play Nobel-winning writer Toni Morrison to deliver the commencement address.

The Republican lawmaker says he's certain there were many Rutgers students who were uninterested at best or "flat out outraged" at worst by Snooki's fee.

We're guessing he won't be watching Snooki's Jersey Shore spinoff.

Jersey Shore Cast Gets HUGE Raise, Officially Signs on For Season 4!

All for one, and one for all. The Jersey Shore cast will officially be back, intact, for Season 4 of the hit show, having been granted the raise they sought.

The crew will reportedly receive at least $100,000 per episode per person for the upcoming season, expected to last about 13 episodes later this year.

Having delivered record ratings this winter, they wanted to get paid. They weren't exactly hurting, but wanted bank commensurate with their stardom.

Jersey Shore Season 3 Cast

WE'RE RICH, BEEYITCH: The Jersey-ites are runnin' it back!

Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino, Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi, Jenni "JWoww" Farley and Paul "Pauly D" Delvecchio delayed filming over it, but all is good now.

The scheduled Season 4 in Italy has run into various snags, but the cast holding out is no longer one of them. It's on to the old country before long.

While $100,000 per episode is certainly a ton (up from $10,000 per in Season 1), it's nothing compared to their endorsement and appearance dough.

The Situation banked $5 million last year. That's enough to make you slit your wrists or raise a glass of Ron-Ron Juice, depending on your outlook.

JWoww Accused of Attacking Tom Lippolis With Knife, Fireplace Poker in Drunken Fight

Tom Lippolis is doing everything he can to tarnish JWoww's reputation.

First, he relentlessly tried to hawk pics of JWoww nude, only to be turned aside by a court order. Now he's accusing the Jersey Shore star of attacking him.

Not a kind of standard, run-of-the-mill attack like when she beats down Sammi in Seaside Heights, either. He's talking drunken knife-fight style!

Thomas Lippolis and JWoww

Tom alleges that on March 6, 2010, J-Woww got furious at him for taking a picture with a girl, and the argument escalated quickly and violently.

“Jenni was screaming really hateful remarks,” he says. “She told me, ‘You’re a jerk and you’re an a**hole!’ We were screaming at each other.”

From there, Tom says that JWoww - who's now dating Roger Williams - grabbed a “short steak knife,” and she STABBED him in the arm!

“My wounds resembled something out of one of those surgery TV shows - muscle completely cut and just hanging out of my skin,” he says.

He alleges that after he cleaned himself up, he ran into JWoww once more, only to have the large-breasted one come after him again!

“Jenni was holding the knife, with blood dripping off of it, in one hand and swinging a fireplace poker at me with the other," he recalls.

"I still have a hole in my elbow from where she impaled me.”

Tom says when he returned from the hospital, J-Woww didn’t even apologize. As for why he didn't call the cops after this alleged attack?

“She basically told me that I made her do it," he claims. "I should've gone to the police, but I wanted to guard her for some odd reason."

"I didn’t want to get her in trouble.”

Anybody believe Tom Lippolis' claims?

Don't get us wrong, JWoww coming at him with a red hot poker is something we can picture, but it seems far-fetched that it really happened.

Tom Lippolis: JWoww Freaking Stabbed Me!

Tom Lippolis is not backing off his claims that ex-girlfriend Jenni Farley (commonly known as JWoww) came at him with a kitchen knife and sliced him up HARD.

“I thought she was going to kill me,” JWoww's former beau says.

Why he didn't mention this for 13 months is unclear, but he's certainly talking about now, saying he got 37 stitches in his arm after he was stabbed by JWoww.

JWoww, Tom Lippolis

“Jenni put a kitchen knife through my entire arm,” Tom Lippolis claims in an interview, saying that he didn't report it to protect Jenni, who he was in love with.

Lippolis, who at the time was also JWoww’s manager, says the booze-fueled melee all started over Lippolis allegedly posing for a photo with another woman.

JWoww’s rep had no comment about the accusations by Tom, who she is also fighting in court over nude photos of her that he's been threatening to sell.

Needless to say, Roger Williams, who she got together with on the third season of Jersey Shore, seems like he has a much more stable relationship with her.
