                                                                <dc:description><![CDATA[ &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Background&lt;/strong&gt;: Philip Sledge is a content writer at CinemaBlend with a focus on longform features. He started writing for the website in December 2019, though his journey in journalism started years earlier. Writing gigs with school newspapers, multiple daily newspapers, and other varied job experiences led him to this point where he actually gets to write about movies, shows, wrestling, and documentaries (which is a huge win in his eyes).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What He&#039;s Into&lt;/strong&gt;: As has been in the case for many years, Philip loves all things professional wrestling (especially early &#039;90s WCW and late-stage WCW if we&#039;re being honest). But outside of the squared circle, Philip is obsessed with all things George A. Romero as you can probably tell by the plethora of zombie stories he&#039;s written over the years. Documentaries, especially Frontline specials, are another passion for Philip, and he can often be heard going on and on about why everyone should watch some random doc about an obscure movie no one has ever seen before.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What He&#039;s Excited About Right Now&lt;/strong&gt;: Oppenheimer... so much so that his wife has asked him multiple times to stop talking about it (but he keeps doing it). He&#039;s also into Peacock&#039;s Twisted Metal series, which has rekindled his love of the classic vehicular combat video game. And since we&#039;re being all nostaglic, he&#039;s pumped to see Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem.&lt;/p&gt; ]]></dc:description>

                                <p>There have been all kinds of different eras throughout WWE’s history. The New Generation, the Attitude Era, the Ruthless Aggression phase, the PG-TV days, and others quickly come to mind.

She started freelancing for the site in 2020 and officially came on board in 2021. Her job entails writing news stories and TV reactions from some of her favorite prime-time shows like Grey&#039;s Anatomy and The Bachelor. She graduated from Louisiana Tech University with a degree in Journalism and worked in the newspaper industry for almost two decades in multiple roles including Sports Editor, Page Designer and Online Editor.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She&#039;s Into&lt;/strong&gt;: Heidi grew up in the 1990s, and her tastes strongly reflect that. She can (and does) quote Friends constantly, enjoys a good West Wing binge, thinks Can&#039;t Hardly Wait was the most influential movie of her life and finds solace in 311 concerts. On Sundays during football season, she can be found cheering on the New Orleans Saints with her husband and two daughters. Who Dat! She loves to read but usually settles for a pop culture podcast, and thinks the best weekends are spent cooking and playing cards with friends and family, preferably with some UFC fights or other sporting event on TV.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She&#039;s Excited About Right Now&lt;/strong&gt;: Football season, Pumpkin Spice Lattes and everything related to fall and cooler weather. The Game of Roses podcast and all things The Bachelor, and new episodes of Grey&#039;s Anatomy, Love Is Blind, The Voice, OMITB and more.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; ]]></dc:description>

She started freelancing for the site in 2020 and officially came on board in 2021. Her job entails writing news stories and TV reactions from some of her favorite prime-time shows like Grey&#039;s Anatomy and The Bachelor. She graduated from Louisiana Tech University with a degree in Journalism and worked in the newspaper industry for almost two decades in multiple roles including Sports Editor, Page Designer and Online Editor.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She&#039;s Into&lt;/strong&gt;: Heidi grew up in the 1990s, and her tastes strongly reflect that. She can (and does) quote Friends constantly, enjoys a good West Wing binge, thinks Can&#039;t Hardly Wait was the most influential movie of her life and finds solace in 311 concerts. On Sundays during football season, she can be found cheering on the New Orleans Saints with her husband and two daughters. Who Dat! She loves to read but usually settles for a pop culture podcast, and thinks the best weekends are spent cooking and playing cards with friends and family, preferably with some UFC fights or other sporting event on TV.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She&#039;s Excited About Right Now&lt;/strong&gt;: Football season, Pumpkin Spice Lattes and everything related to fall and cooler weather. The Game of Roses podcast and all things The Bachelor, and new episodes of Grey&#039;s Anatomy, Love Is Blind, The Voice, OMITB and more.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; ]]></dc:description>

                                <p>We’ve seen Kim Kardashian go to some <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/streaming-news/i-cant-stop-watching-this-wild-tiktok-of-kim-kardashian-going-to-comical-lengths-for-fashion"><u>comical lengths in the name of fashion</u></a>, but especially when it comes to the Met Gala, she’s been known to serve up some pretty iconic looks. Take 2022, for example, when she caused so much controversy by <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/how-much-weight-kim-kardashian-had-to-lose-to-fit-in-that-marilyn-monroe-met-gala-dress"><u>squeezing into Marilyn Monroe’s famous “Happy Birthday, Mr. President” dress</u></a>, or 2021, when she covered her entire body — including her face — in <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2573517/kim-kardashian-goes-full-batman-met-gala-thank-kanye-west"><u>Batman-esque Balenciaga</u></a>. This year offered another big moment, but while everyone seemed to be <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/streaming-news/people-dragging-kim-kardashian-dumb-sweater-sheer-met-gala-dress-shoes"><u>focused on the gray sweater</u></a> she paired with her sheer metal dress, her sister Khloé and even <em>Jersey Shore</em>’s Snooki had some thoughts on her insane choice of footwear.</p><p>In case you didn’t get enough of Kim Kardashian’s silver floral look on the Met Gala carpet, the Hulu reality star shared some behind-the-scenes images to <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/C7CHUzyrCtr/?igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA%3D%3D&img_index=1"><u>Instagram</u></a>, giving fans a close look at the heel-less platforms she (somehow) sported for the big night. Flip through the pics below, but be sure to take a look at the second slide: </p><div class="instagram-embed"><blockquote class="instagram-media"  data-instgrm-version="6" style="width:99.375%; width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px); width:calc(100% - 2px);"><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/C7CHUzyrCtr/" target="_blank">A post shared by Kim Kardashian (@kimkardashian)</a></p><p>A photo posted by  on </p></blockquote></div><p>Many people took to the comments to celebrate the gorgeous dress and Kim Kardashian’s ridiculously tiny waist, but I’m here for Khloé Kardashian’s commentary, as she wondered how the heck her big sis even stayed upright in those sky-high shoes with no heels. The Good American boss wrote: </p><div><blockquote><p>Damsel in distress. That invisible heel is wild! How did you manage? I definitely would have fallen</p></blockquote></div><p>Not only was Kim Kardashian likely practicing some shallow breathing in that tight corset and exhibiting a limited range of motion in the metal dress, she had to literally stay on her toes the whole time. I’m with Khloé, because it just seems like not falling would be an impossible feat.</p><p>Impossible or not, though, it seemed like Snooki of <em>Jersey Shore</em> fame would have been more than willing to give those platforms a go, as she added her own comment to the thread, saying: </p><div><blockquote><p>I’m gonna wear those heels my next meatball day</p></blockquote></div><p>No offense to Snooki (aka Nicole Polizzi), because I have no doubt she can navigate a risky heel under the influence of alcohol much better than I can, but bringing these invisible heel platforms to a so-called “Meatball Day” would be an unmitigated disaster. </p><p>Snooki and co-star Deena Cortese dubbed themselves the “Meatballs” on the MTV reality show because of their short stature and tanned skin, with Meatball Days typically involving lots of drinking, dancing and generally acting like — to coin a Kardashian term — a slob kabob. I just hope if Snooki does follow through on that promise that the MTV cameras are rolling. </p><p>You can see Snooki in all her Meatball glory on <em>Jersey Shore Family Vacation</em>, which airs at 8 p.m. ET Thursdays (Jerzdays) on MTV, and Kim and Khloé, as well, will be hitting the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2024-tv-show-premiere-dates-schedule"><u>2024 TV schedule</u></a> with new episodes of their own reality show. <em>The Kardashians</em> Season 5 is set to premiere on Thursday, May 23, for fans with a <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2570844/subscribing-to-hulu-the-price-whats-included-and-everything-else-to-know"><u>Hulu subscription</u></a>. </p>

She started at CinemaBlend as a freelancer in 2015 with a strong background in sci-fi and superheroes. She has since gone on to write full time as part of the staff, and covers a wide variety of television across the small screen and streaming. Primetime is her time of day, and she can also be found covering nighttime TV ranging from medical dramas to crime procedurals to sci-fi, and everything in between. She studied English, and is happy to have found a use for it. If it&#039;s set in the Dick Wolf TV universe, she watches it.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She&#039;s Into&lt;/strong&gt;: Laura&#039;s lifetime love of fiction set her up for spending her days writing about television, and she continues to enjoy binge-watching, binge-reading, and going to the movies. Her love of underdog stories set her up for a lifetime of rooting for Cleveland sports teams, which has paid off exactly once in her lifetime. (Thanks, LeBron!)

                                <p><em>Jersey Shore Family Vacation</em> wrapped its third season on June 18, and MTV didn't leave fans hanging about the future of the series for too long. The hit series that reunited the cast of <em>Jersey Shore</em> for some new shenanigans has officially been renewed for a fourth season on the cable network. It will return with some changes, including <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2486180/jersey-shores-snooki-reveals-shes-leaving-the-hit-mtv-series" data-original-url="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2486180/jersey-shores-snooki-reveals-shes-leaving-the-hit-mtv-series">one major cast member missing</a>, but the stars hit social media to celebrate the renewal.</p><p>All things considered, the renewal doesn't come as a huge shock. The Season 3 finale of <em>Jersey Shore Family Vacation</em> on June 18 was the highest-rated episode in years, with a 1.1 rating in the 18-49 age demographic in Live+Same day calculations, making it <em>Jersey Shore Family Vacation</em>'s best-rated episode since 2018. In Live+3 day numbers, the audience totals 1.7 million, making it the #1 cable series on the night of June 18. No wonder the stars have a renewal to celebrate!</p><p>Vinny Guadagnino, who revealed lifelong weight struggles while also showing off <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2495088/jersey-shores-vinny-shows-off-newly-ripped-body-while-revealing-lifelong-weight-struggles" data-original-url="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2495088/jersey-shores-vinny-shows-off-newly-ripped-body-while-revealing-lifelong-weight-struggles">his newly ripped body</a> back in April, posted this:</p><div class="see-more see-more--clipped"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet hawk-ignore" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr"><a href="https://twitter.com/cantworkitout/status/1276189792586342401"></a></p></blockquote><div class="see-more__filter"></div></div><p>Vinny directly addressed fans in his celebratory post, with the assurance that <em>Jersey Shore Family Vacation</em> isn't going anywhere. Of the fans who checked out his tweet, a lot of them seemed anxious for Angelina Pivarnick to leave the show in Season 4, with some citing the "drama." Then again, what would <em>Jersey Shore</em> or <em>Family Vacation</em> be without the drama?</p><p>DJ Pauly D also hit <a href="https://twitter.com/DJPaulyD/status/1276178656486756353">Twitter</a> to share his feelings about the Season 4 renewal, posting:</p><div><blockquote><p>Thank You All For Watching. We Doing It Again For You All!!!</p></blockquote></div><p>Fans may not have been able to recognize Pauly D <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2495141/jersey-shores-pauly-d-is-rocking-facial-hair-now-and-fans-dont-recognize-him" data-original-url="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2495141/jersey-shores-pauly-d-is-rocking-facial-hair-now-and-fans-dont-recognize-him">with his facial hair</a> that he was rocking in April, but he seems pretty excited to be giving them another season of <em>Jersey Shore Family Vacation</em>. As for Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino, (who lost a lot of weight <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2481277/the-wild-way-jersey-shores-the-situation-lost-36-pounds-in-prison" data-original-url="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2481277/the-wild-way-jersey-shores-the-situation-lost-36-pounds-in-prison">during his time behind bars</a>), he chose a pretty perfect message in his own celebratory post:</p><div class="see-more see-more--clipped"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet hawk-ignore" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr"><a href="https://twitter.com/cantworkitout/status/1276171040738152451"></a></p></blockquote><div class="see-more__filter"></div></div><p>A play on his own nickname and a bicep emoji? That's a pretty fitting way to hype the fact that <em>Jersey Shore Family Vacation</em> will be back for at least one more season on MTV. Unfortunately for diehard <em>Jersey Shore</em> and <em>Family Vacation</em> fans, however, the show will return for Season 4 without one longtime cast member. Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi made good on <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2477814/now-snooki-is-threatening-to-quit-jersey-shore-family-vacation" data-original-url="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2477814/now-snooki-is-threatening-to-quit-jersey-shore-family-vacation">her threats to quit the series</a>.</p><p>Although Snooki cited the show's "toxic environment" as her <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2491033/jersey-shores-snooki-had-to-leave-the-toxic-enviornment-but-would-she-go-back" data-original-url="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2491033/jersey-shores-snooki-had-to-leave-the-toxic-enviornment-but-would-she-go-back">reason for leaving <em>Jersey Shore Family Vacation</em></a>, she was right out there on Twitter to celebrate the renewal with her former fellow cast members:</p><div class="see-more see-more--clipped"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet hawk-ignore" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr"><a href="https://twitter.com/cantworkitout/status/1276172991290802176"></a></p></blockquote><div class="see-more__filter"></div></div><p>MTV didn't announce when <a href="http://www.mtv.com/shows/jersey-shore-family-vacation"><em>Jersey Shore Family Vacation</em></a> will return to the airwaves for Season 4. The second and third seasons both debuted in August, not too long after the previous season ended. The said, social distancing and production shutdowns throughout the entertainment industry may mean a much longer wait than usual for more <em>Family Vacation</em>.</p><p>For now, you can always get your <em>Jersey Shore</em> fix with all six seasons of the series' original run streaming on Hulu.

                                <p><em>Jersey Shore Family Vacation</em> was all new on Thursday night, but the biggest news regarding the show would not come from the boys' final night in Las Vegas. The big news came hours before the episode when it was revealed that Jenni "JWoww" Farley filed for divorce from husband Roger Matthews. Understandably, JWoww was not tweeting along with her castmates during the episode, although she was apparently available to do so as she retweeted her best pal Snooki's tweet that supported her best friend:</p><div class="see-more see-more--clipped"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet hawk-ignore" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr"><a href="https://twitter.com/cantworkitout/status/1045462886649344000"></a></p></blockquote><div class="see-more__filter"></div></div><p>Snooki's tweet supporting her best friend came not long before their on-screen reconciliation, which was the result of a fight the two had in an earlier episode. Both Snooki and JWoww hopped on social media soon after the fight aired to say it had been edited to create tension that wasn't there, despite the fact that it did seem part of JWoww's reason for leaving was tied to Angelina as the show portrayed. This recent news adds another layer to the story, as <a href="https://www.app.com/story/entertainment/2018/09/27/jersey-shore-reality-star-files-divorce/1447495002/">Asbury Park Press</a> said JWoww filed for divorce just days before Snooki and she <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2457688/snooki-and-jwowws-jersey-shore-family-vacation-feud-isnt-as-real-as-it-seems" data-original-url="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2457688/snooki-and-jwowws-jersey-shore-family-vacation-feud-isnt-as-real-as-it-seems">called out</a> the show's portrayal of their fight.</p><p>Details behind the reasons of divorce are scant, but the court document requesting the marriage be dissolved claimed the two had been having problems for at least six months. The timeline is consistent with the revival that is <em>Jersey Shore Family Vacation</em>, making it possible that their split is a result of JWoww doing the show. There's no denying <em>Jersey Shore Family Vacation</em> has caused turmoil in the romantic lives of some of its castmates, although to this point the series had not shown any tension in Jenni's relationship with Roger. Outside of the show, however, Roger posted a video on Instagram that indicated he wasn't happy with his wife's decision to reunite with her castmates while she was filming Season 1:</p><div class="instagram-embed"><blockquote class="instagram-media"  data-instgrm-version="6" style="width:99.375%; width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px); width:calc(100% - 2px);"><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/BeHHJueFpu8/" target="_blank"></a></p><p>A photo posted by  on </p></blockquote></div><p>JWoww's divorce certainly raises an interesting question about the future of <em>Jersey Shore Family Vacation</em>, as yet another member of the cast is <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2455256/7-jersey-shore-family-vacation-moments-season-2-moments-were-excited-to-see" data-original-url="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2455256/7-jersey-shore-family-vacation-moments-season-2-moments-were-excited-to-see">single yet again</a>. It's tough to say how this life change will affect JWoww on future seasons of <em>Jersey Shore Family Vacation</em>, or if this might be what leads to her backing out of the series. The show has already had to do quite a bit of cast juggling in Season 2 with <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2444260/one-jersey-shore-family-vacation-star-was-totally-pregnant-while-filming-season-2" data-original-url="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2444260/one-jersey-shore-family-vacation-star-was-totally-pregnant-while-filming-season-2">Deena's pregnancy</a> and <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2443789/jersey-shore-family-vacation-concluded-filming-without-ronnie" data-original-url="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2443789/jersey-shore-family-vacation-concluded-filming-without-ronnie">Ronnie's various issues</a>, and while it has done a solid job filling those voids, it may get to a point where too many cast members will need time off, making another season difficult.</p><p><em>Jersey Shore Family Vacation</em> continues on with Season 2 Thursdays at 8:00 p.m. ET. Fall season is <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2458050/12-new-fall-tv-shows-that-audiences-should-be-excited-about" data-original-url="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2458050/12-new-fall-tv-shows-that-audiences-should-be-excited-about">in full swing</a>, so be sure to keep track of all the shows coming over the next few months with our <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2454665/2018-fall-tv-premiere-schedule-dates-for-new-and-returning-shows" data-original-url="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2454665/2018-fall-tv-premiere-schedule-dates-for-new-and-returning-shows">fall premiere guide</a>.</p>

Star Trek is his main jam, but he also regularly reports on happenings in the world of Star Trek, WWE, Doctor Who, 90 Day Fiancé, Quantum Leap, and Big Brother. He graduated from the University of Southern Indiana with a degree in Journalism and a minor in Radio and Television. He&#039;s great at hosting panels and appearing on podcasts if given the chance as well.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What He&#039;s Into&lt;/strong&gt;: Most everything Mick reports on because he&#039;s passionate and a fan of the subject. He really loves interviewing people and getting the bigger answers to questions. Outside of work, he&#039;s a sports fan who supports the Indiana Pacers, as well as the New England Patriots.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What He&#039;s Excited About Right Now&lt;/strong&gt;: Mick is excited for the tentative ending of the writer&#039;s strike and for more of his favorite shows like Quantum Leap and Star Trek: Strange New Worlds to finish out their in-development seasons.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; ]]></dc:description>

                                <p>The latest episode of <em>Jersey Shore Family Vacation</em> teased big tension between best friends Snooki and JWoww, as the latter supposedly announced she was leaving the Las Vegas vacation. According to the episode, JWoww's exit was rooted in Snooki's inviting of Angelina and another friend to the vacation, thus ruining the family vibe of the classic <em>Jersey Shore</em> cast having a vacation. Now, both Snooki and JWoww are saying that wasn't the case and informing fans their feud on the show wasn't as real as it seemed:</p><div class="see-more see-more--clipped"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet hawk-ignore" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr"><a href="https://twitter.com/cantworkitout/status/1040621998630752257"></a></p></blockquote><div class="see-more__filter"></div></div><p>Snooki and JWoww hopped on Twitter to inform <em>Jersey Shore Family Vacation</em> viewers that what went down in the episode was a bit of clever editing used to create an event that might be fake news. JWoww, who did express a general distaste for Snooki's invitation of Angelina and her other friend to the hotel, said that the actual reason she left the reality series was so she could attend therapy sessions for <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2457335/jwoww-shares-update-on-son-after-emotional-jersey-shore-family-vacation-episode" data-original-url="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2457335/jwoww-shares-update-on-son-after-emotional-jersey-shore-family-vacation-episode">her son Greyson</a>. The reveal would seemingly indicate that JWoww is not out of the season for good like some promotions for the season have teased and that her big fight with Snooki was more television magic than anything.</p><p>The story may be somewhat hard to believe for some <em>Jersey Shore Family Vacation</em> fans, who may think the two women are more or less covering up for what now may be seen by both of them as a silly argument. In their defense, this is not the first time the show's editing staff has come under fire, as Ronnie Ortiz-Magro's baby mama Jen Harley <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2456868/ronnies-sometimes-girlfriend-jen-harley-just-blasted-jersey-shore-family-vacations-editors" data-original-url="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2456868/ronnies-sometimes-girlfriend-jen-harley-just-blasted-jersey-shore-family-vacations-editors">also complained</a> about how her scenes were portrayed earlier in the season. At the end of the day it appears all castmembers want viewers to remember that not everything on reality television is "real," or at least Snooki anyway as she clapped back at a fan criticizing the group's <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2457579/angelina-is-all-up-on-paulys-d-in-jersey-shore-family-vacation-preview" data-original-url="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2457579/angelina-is-all-up-on-paulys-d-in-jersey-shore-family-vacation-preview">treatment of Angelina</a>:</p><div class="see-more see-more--clipped"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet hawk-ignore" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr"><a href="https://twitter.com/cantworkitout/status/1040693218290094083"></a></p></blockquote><div class="see-more__filter"></div></div><p>It wouldn't be surprising if quite a few <em>Jersey Shore Family Vacation</em> viewers are now wondering <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2457082/all-the-jersey-shore-family-vacation-craziness-that-went-down-after-jen-and-ronnies-huge-fight" data-original-url="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2457082/all-the-jersey-shore-family-vacation-craziness-that-went-down-after-jen-and-ronnies-huge-fight">how much</a> of the show is dedicated to what essentially seems like scripted drama after reading the star's response. Snooki later clarified in <a href="https://twitter.com/snooki/status/1040694361741246465">another tweet</a> that the cast is unscripted in their interactions, but that they have no control over how their words and actions are edited and twisted around in post-production. Snooki and Jenni may have had a fight about inviting people outside the "group chat" to the vacation, and Jenni did take time away from the show, but it sounds as though those two incidents weren't necessarily connected like the series led viewers to believe.</p><p>Reality or not, the events of <a href="http://www.mtv.com/shows/jersey-shore-family-vacation"><em>Jersey Shore Family Vacation</em></a> Season 2 will continue to unfold on MTV Thursdays at 8:00 p.m. ET.

His humble origin story with CinemaBlend began all the way back in the pre-streaming era, circa 2009, as a freelancing DVD reviewer and TV recapper. After rising up through the ranks covering Movies, Nick leapfrogged over to the small screen to cover more and more television news and interviews, eventually taking over the section for the current era. Born in Louisiana and currently living in Texas — Who Dat Nation over America’s Team all day, all night — Nick spent several years in the hospitality industry, and also worked as a 911 operator. And if you ever happened to hear his music or read his comics/short stories, you have his sympathy.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What He&#039;s Into&lt;/strong&gt;: Nick is one of those people who won’t necessarily insert a Monty Python reference into every conversation, but is still mentally equipped to do so. Beyond such appreciation for surreal UK comedy, Nick also indulges in as much horror splendor as possible, from Stephen King novels to James Tynion IV comics to Freddy Krueger one-liners to all things Mike Flanagan. Throw in a dash of NFL, some 311 and Weird Al, fried crawfish poboys, bourbon, ‘90s-era pro wrestling, crossword puzzles and mystery-driven video games, and baby, you got a stew going. (Nick will insert an Arrested Development reference into every conversation, if possible.)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What He&#039;s Excited About&lt;/strong&gt;: Anything Jeff Lemire, Tom King and W. Maxwell Prince think of, ever. More of Kelly Reilly’s deliriously fierce performances on Yellowstone. HBO’s The Last of Us. Clone High’s return. Colin Farrell’s Penguin being in every movie/TV show/breakfast cereal.&lt;/p&gt; ]]></dc:description>

                                <p>For fans of ridiculous reality TV shows, Christmas came early this year when MTV announced that viewers currently enjoying the brand new cast of <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/1727429/review-floribama-shore-is-the-jersey-shore-for-a-new-generation" data-original-url="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/1727429/review-floribama-shore-is-the-jersey-shore-for-a-new-generation"><em>Floribama Shore</em></a> would also get to revisit the original <em>Jersey Shore</em> crew for <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/1731030/jersey-shore-is-coming-back-with-original-cast-for-new-mtv-series" data-original-url="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/1731030/jersey-shore-is-coming-back-with-original-cast-for-new-mtv-series">the comeback series</a> <em>Jersey Shore Family Vacation</em>. Unfortunately, one O.G. cast member won't make the trip, as Sammi "Sweetheart" Giancola isn't currently set to take part in the reunion series. She's been quiet about it since, but former co-star Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi seems to know the reason.</p><div><blockquote><p>Everyone's asking why Sammi's not doing it. You have to ask her that --- I'm not gonna speak for her. But Sammi is just in such a happy place that I feel like she doesn't want to jump back into that drama if it does happen. And being that there was a lot of Ron and Sam drama when we did film, it was just really hard on both of them. So I just think she doesn't want that anymore.</p></blockquote></div><p>You gotta love how Snooki starts off by saying she won't speak for Sammi Sweetheart, and then does exactly that. But we're not complaining, since she's clearly got some insight on the issue and knows more than most people would about Sammi's current mindset when it comes to all things <em>Jersey Shore</em>. And honestly, any other answer than the one Snooki offered might have come across as suspicious.</p><p>Because seriously, one would immediately assume that the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/1637990/the-one-quote-jersey-shore-fans-keep-yelling-at-ronnie" data-original-url="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/1637990/the-one-quote-jersey-shore-fans-keep-yelling-at-ronnie">loud and proud Ronnie Ortiz-Magro</a> would be the number one reason why Sammi Sweetheart would want to skip out on any <em>Jersey Shore</em> reunions. Put on just about any random episode from the show's six seasons and you'll more than likely witness one or both of them drunkenly hollering about or at the other person. It became more predictable than the opening credits, so it's not hard to understand that she reportedly doesn't want to jump back in front of a camera with him again.</p><p>Let's not forget that Sammi did indeed reconnect with her <em>Jersey Shore</em> castmates for that <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/1680499/this-jersey-shore-burger-king-reunion-video-is-so-weird-but-we-cant-look-away" data-original-url="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/1680499/this-jersey-shore-burger-king-reunion-video-is-so-weird-but-we-cant-look-away">weirdo Burger King commercial</a>, as well as the E! special Return to the Jersey Shore, which was itself supposed to launch a new season of episodes. But let's also recall that Ronnie didn't take part in either of those reunions, which makes Snooki's explanation about Sammi skipping <em>Jersey Shore Family Vacation</em> all the more believable.</p><p>Just because Sammi hasn't signed on to do that show now doesn't mean Snooki & Co. have given up on getting her involved by the time the production kicks off. While talking about the upcoming MTV series on her podcast <a href="https://audioboom.com/posts/6525700-on-the-move"><em>It's Happening with Joey and Snooki</em></a>, here's how Snooki and others feel about Sammi not being involved.</p><div><blockquote><p>We're all begging her to come back on the show. It's really up to her. Everyone pray that Sammi comes back, because I feel like she might change her mind. So Sam, if you're listening, come to the show. Like, stop being --- stop it. Stop it right now before I spank you.</p></blockquote></div><p>We're still months away from any spank-tastic premiere dates for <em>Jersey Shore Family Vacation</em>, so it's more than plausible that Sammi Sweetheart might get convinced to revisit her dramatic heydays for the new show.

                                                                <dc:description><![CDATA[ &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Background&lt;/strong&gt;: Nick Venable is an Assistant Managing Editor, and the TV Editor. His humble origin story with CinemaBlend began all the way back in the pre-streaming era, circa 2009, as a freelancing DVD reviewer and TV recapper. After rising up through the ranks covering Movies, Nick leapfrogged over to the small screen to cover more and more television news and interviews, eventually taking over the section for the current era. Born in Louisiana and currently living in Texas — Who Dat Nation over America’s Team all day, all night — Nick spent several years in the hospitality industry, and also worked as a 911 operator. And if you ever happened to hear his music or read his comics/short stories, you have his sympathy.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What He&#039;s Into&lt;/strong&gt;: Nick is one of those people who won’t necessarily insert a Monty Python reference into every conversation, but is still mentally equipped to do so. Beyond such appreciation for surreal UK comedy, Nick also indulges in as much horror splendor as possible, from Stephen King novels to James Tynion IV comics to Freddy Krueger one-liners to all things Mike Flanagan. Throw in a dash of NFL, some 311 and Weird Al, fried crawfish poboys, bourbon, ‘90s-era pro wrestling, crossword puzzles and mystery-driven video games, and baby, you got a stew going. (Nick will insert an Arrested Development reference into every conversation, if possible.)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What He&#039;s Excited About&lt;/strong&gt;: Anything Jeff Lemire, Tom King and W. Maxwell Prince think of, ever. More of Kelly Reilly’s deliriously fierce performances on Yellowstone. HBO’s The Last of Us. Clone High’s return. Colin Farrell’s Penguin being in every movie/TV show/breakfast cereal.&lt;/p&gt; ]]></dc:description>

                                <p>2012 seems like an eternity ago for many reasons, not the least of which is the year's distinction for being the last time <em>Jersey Shore</em> graced MTV with its presence. Since the Guidos and Guidettes last left the <em>Shore</em>, each has gone through a variety of situations, some involving more TV and some involving less than ideal situations. In any case, those six seasons of tanning and debauchery were obviously life-changing for everyone involved, and Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi has shared what it is that she misses about the reality hit.</p><div><blockquote><p>I don't miss it in the sense where I love my life right now. But I do miss just being with the roomies and just having that moment of being the number one show. That was crazy. I think we took it for granted, 'cause we were like, 'Oh, we're number one again.' But now when you think back on it, it was the time of our lives.</p></blockquote></div><p>I completely get where Snooki is coming from there in her talk with <a href="http://people.com/celebrity/nicole-snooki-polizzi-what-she-misses-about-jersey-shore/">People</a>. Not in the sense that I've ever been a part of a cable hit where people referred to another human being as The Situation," but in that way that I can look fondly back on my more immature days with friends while also fully embracing my current life as a parent. But my life was never in any way as over-the-top and in full view of the world at large, so the comparisons really are pretty limited between me and Snooki. Who'd have thought?</p><p>Since its <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/dvds/Jersey-Shore-Season-One-Uncensored-4769.html" data-original-url="http://www.cinemablend.com/dvds/1500839/Jersey-Shore-Season-One-Uncensored">first season</a> in 2009, <em>Jersey Shore</em> gave Snooki a slew of opportunities to make regrettable decisions, and she definitely chose the wrong way to handle plenty of incidents. She's come out in the past with just how much booze the <em>Jersey Shore</em> cast took in during production, so those misguided choices had a clear source. (I mean, this is a show where it was news when everyone decided NOT to drink.) The pint-sized firecracker had one messy arrest put on camera for Season 3, when she was taken in by Seaside Heights cops for disturbing the peace, among other charges. And arguably the biggest breakthrough moment for Snooki came when, during filming, she got punched in the face by a dude, which went wildly viral. Sure, there were lots of good times that one could logically miss and yearn for, but not everything makes that cut.</p><p>Most recently, Snooki and her husband Jionni LaValle have been kicking it happily with their two sons, while also hosting another Shore-related reality show. But FYI's <em>Nicole & Jionni's Shore Flip</em> is a completely different kind of beast than <em>Jersey Shore</em>'s party hearty vibe. It's unclear at this point if a second season of the realty series has been ordered, but we'll keep an ear out.

She’s been kicking out news stories at CinemaBlend since 2007 and joined the full-time staff in 2014. She oversees news content, hiring and training for the site, and her areas of expertise include theme parks, rom-coms, Hallmark (particularly Christmas movie season), reality TV, celebrity interviews and primetime. She loves a good animated movie.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Jessica has a Masters in Library Science degree from Indiana University, and used to be found behind a reference desk most definitely not shushing people. She now uses those skills in researching and tracking down information in very different ways.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She’s Into&lt;/strong&gt;: A former soccer player and recent tennis addict, Jessica also enjoys running, both of the distance and sprint variety. When not at the movie theater, her other free time is spent in book clubs, hiking, drinking wine, binge-watching, keeping tabs on celebrity fashion and riding rollercoasters. Has a serious Hallmark and Avon romance habit and an even bigger record-buying habit. Will bake for compliments.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She’s Excited About Right Now&lt;/strong&gt;: &amp;nbsp;Stone fruit season, Fall TV, and her next ride on the VelociCoaster. &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; ]]></dc:description>

                                <p><a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/pop/Khloe-Kardashian-Check-Out-Beautiful-Sad-Selfie-She-Posted-58685.html" data-original-url="http://www.cinemablend.com/pop/Khloe-Kardashian-Check-Out-Beautiful-Sad-Selfie-She-Posted-58685.html">Khloe Kardashian</a> has a brand new unscripted series called <i>Kocktails with Khloe</i>, which is pretty self-explanatory in concept. This week, she had special guest Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi on for an interview—and drinks of course—and the two reminisced about the first time they met. Only it wasn’t really a nice blast into the past. Instead it was Snooki accusing Khloe of being downright mean while Khloe Kardashian acted like she had no idea what Nicole Polizzi was talking about. The exchange is totally ridiculous and you can watch it in full, below.</p><p><iframe allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" frameborder="0" height="338" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/t8JbRU_XqGE" width="600"></iframe></p><p>The basic gist of the video is that Snooki brings up the time they met, but Khloe refuses to remember, saying she “swear to god” has no idea what happened. So, Snooki explains that Kim Kardashian had actually asked her over to the house some years ago when she was a big reality star, and <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/pop/Take-Look-Snooki-Post-Baby-Weight-Loss-56088.html" data-original-url="http://www.cinemablend.com/pop/Take-Look-Snooki-Post-Baby-Weight-Loss-56088.html">Snooki</a> accepted because she was quote/unquote “obsessed” with Khloe Kardashian. It’s probably not all that often that fans are more interested in Khloe than Kim—no offense Khloe—and Kim was super gracious about the whole thing. Unfortunately, Khloe was not. In the video, Snookie reveals that Khloe said this upon meeting her:</p><div><blockquote><p>What the fuck is she doing here?</p></blockquote></div><p>It's not as if the Kardashians are known for being pleasant when they don't feel like it. In fact, they've said a lot of mean stuff to one another--not just outsiders--in the past. Still, if you’ve ever wanted to make anyone feel totally out of place I think a “what the fuck” moment like that would probably do it, and then some. This led to some of the best "oh-no-she-didn't" faces we've seen in recent memory.</p><figure class="van-image-figure pull-" data-bordeaux-image-check ><div class='image-full-width-wrapper'><div class='image-widthsetter' ><p class="vanilla-image-block" style="padding-top:56.25%;"><img id="dNE5hHURvDv57oaGH7hdyD" name="" alt="kocktails with khloe" src="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/dNE5hHURvDv57oaGH7hdyD.jpg" mos="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/dNE5hHURvDv57oaGH7hdyD.jpg" align="" fullscreen="" width="" height="" attribution="" endorsement="" class="pull-"></p></div></div></figure><p>Meanwhile, the youngest Kardashian sister acts totally shocked, but as it turns out, she’s totally full of it. We know this, because she admits to Snooki that it was her “wedding anniversary” when she decided to totally be mean to the former <i>Jersey Shore</i> cast member. This means that she did remember how horribly she treated the pint-sized star the first time she met her. Way to blow your cover there, Khloe.</p><p>The Kardashian clan has had plenty of feuds with different celebrities in the past, and this one seems to be pretty tame as far as gossip goes. Obviously, Snooki wasn't so offended that she decided an appearance on <i>Kocktails with Khloe</i> was not feasible. She showed up and seemed to be having a pretty decent time while airing her grievances against her--I'm assuming--former favorite Kardashian. If this is the cattiness FYI's series is bringing to the table each week, maybe we should all be tuning in.</p><p>You can catch new episodes of <i>Kocktails with Khloe</i> on Wednesdays at 10 p.m. ET, only on <a href="http://www.fyi.tv/shows/kocktails-with-khloe">FYI</a>.

                                <p>Nicole Polizzi, aka Snooki, of <i>Jersey Shore</i> fame, is pregnant with her second kid. The announcement was leaked prior to Snooks and her husband Gianni being able to share the news with family, and boy howdy is she mad about it! She took to the web to express her excitement about her new child, address the haters, and let out a bit of hormonal rage as well. The whole thing was about a book long, but the highlights can be read right here.</p><p>Snooki started off the blog <a href="http://snookinicole.celebuzz.com/">post</a> saying she is delighted to “confirm” that she is in fact expecting a second child, and now that the test results have shown a healthy baby, she can finally talk about it. It would appear that someone within her close circle of friends leaked the news before the couple was ready, but no specific people were outed in that issue. Who she did address specifically were the media who outed the star of <i>Snooki And JWoww</i> before she was ready. She also had some choice words for the writer of a headline that said <i>Snooki Expecting Second Child, God Help Us</i>.</p><div><blockquote><p>With all the trouble in this world you’re asking God to help us because I’m expanding my family and happen to be an amazing mother to my children? Keep the 2012 jokes to yourself.</p></blockquote></div><p>Snooki also stated that she is aware that media attention is inevitable, and that 98% of their lives were going to be broadcast to the world, but said the spin on the story was getting a little out of control.</p><div><blockquote><p>What really bothers me is how people think I got pregnant to be “selfish” and take the “shine” away from JWoww. Are you out of your minds? If you knew Jenni & I personally, you would know we always wanted to be pregnant together. I love Jenni like my big sister, she is everything to me, not fame. I would never try to “outshine” her and like real women, we support each other and always want the best for each other, not beat each other down to see who can be more “famous”.</p></blockquote></div><p>For the record, I had no idea JWoww was pregnant (not that I keep up); so, I could see where the spin that Snook's pregnancy could outshine hers would happen. On the same note, and I’m really putting myself out here for criticism, I feel sorry for <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/pop/Governor-Chris-Christie-Right-Hate-Snooki-56074.html" data-original-url="http://www.cinemablend.com/pop/Governor-Chris-Christie-Right-Hate-Snooki-56074.html">Snooki</a> . If my early 20’s were broadcast on reality television, people would likely call me an idiot, and it would suck to be branded with that label for your entire life. I can also empathize with the crappy feeling I would have if a special moment in my life was robbed of me and posted in the headlines with inflammatory comments about my life that my future <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/pop/Pauly-Already-War-With-His-Ex-Hooters-Waitress-Baby-Mama-60087.html" data-original-url="http://www.cinemablend.com/pop/Pauly-Already-War-With-His-Ex-Hooters-Waitress-Baby-Mama-60087.html">child</a> might read one day. Snooki probably knows better than most that being a reality television star comes with some challenges and she handles them well. For that, I can respect her.</p>

Among the stars to make the roster for Season 17 are <i>Saved By the Bell</i>'s Elizabeth Berkley -- who did a bit of dancing in <i>Showgirls</i>, if you recall -- <i>High School Musical</i>'s talented and charismatic Corbin Bleu, <i>Jersey Shore</i>'s Snooki and Bill Nye (the Science Guy!).</p><p>Who's partnered up with last season's winner, Derek Hough? That would be <i>Glee</i>'s Amber Riley. Meanwhile, it's Leah Remini who will be dancing with Season 15 winner Tony Dovolani. Remini has her own <i>Saved by the Bell</i> connections, but the <i>King of Queens</i> star has <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/pop/Leah-Remini-Leaving-Scientology-One-Tells-Me-How-Think-57884.html" data-original-url="http://www.cinemablend.com/pop/Leah-Remini-Leaving-Scientology-One-Tells-Me-How-Think-57884.html">recently made headlines</a> for speaking out against Scientology. Also making headlines is Valerie Harper, who has fortunately had some success battling brain cancer, and appears to be well enough to take to the floor with Tristan MacManus, who partnered with Dorothy Hamill last season. MacManus has no wins under his belt just yet, but he only joined the show in Season 13.</p><p>Also on the list: actor Brant Daugherty (<i>Pretty Little Liars</i>), comedian Bill Engvall, NFL champion Keyshawn Johnson, <i>The Voice</i>'s Christina Milian and reality TV star Jack Osbourne. Here's the full list of contestants and who they're dancing with.</p><p>Elizabeth Berkley Lauren (Valentin Chmerkovskiy)</p><p>Corbin Bleu (Karina Smirnoff)</p><p>Brant Daugherty (Peta Murgatroyd)</p><p>Bill Engvall (Emma Slater)</p><p>Valerie Harper (Tristan MacManus)</p><p>Keyshawn Johnson (Sharna Burgess)</p><p>Christina Milian (Mark Ballas)</p><p>Bill Nye (Tyne Stecklein)</p><p>Jack Osbourne (Cheryl Burke)</p><p>Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi (Sasha Farber)</p><p>Leah Remini (Tony Dovolani)</p><p>Amber Riley (Derek Hough)</p><p>This actually seems like one of the more recognizable casts in recent history. Meaning, I've actually heard of all of these people and know what they're famous for. I couldn't have said the same for at least half of the people in last Spring's line-up.</p><div><blockquote><p>Viewers may cast their votes for their favorite teams via phone on Monday nights during and up to 60 minutes after the end of the “Dancing with the Stars” broadcast in each time zone.

When not at the movie theater, her other free time is spent in book clubs, hiking, drinking wine, binge-watching, keeping tabs on celebrity fashion and riding rollercoasters. Has a serious Hallmark and Avon romance habit and an even bigger record-buying habit. Will bake for compliments.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Recently, the 25-year-old put together a brand new photo showing her new fit and fab figure, and the results are astonishing.</p><p>Snooki took to <a href="https://twitter.com/snooki/status/338303319959289857">Twitter</a> to post her Instagram photo, noting that all of her hard workouts have paid off.</p><div><blockquote><p>“Finally starting to come together after having a baby in there!”</p></blockquote></div><p>Snooki’s <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/pop/Jersey-Shore-Ronnie-Speaks-Out-About-Snooki-Pregnancy-40496.html" data-original-url="http://www.cinemablend.com/pop/Jersey-Shore-Ronnie-Speaks-Out-About-Snooki-Pregnancy-40496.html">pregnancy</a> may have been a bit of a surprise, but by the time her baby was born in <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/pop/Snooki-Welcomes-Baby-Boy-46135.html" data-original-url="http://www.cinemablend.com/pop/Snooki-Welcomes-Baby-Boy-46135.html">August</a>, the life of the party had settled down quite a bit. She and her partner, Jionni, were committed to raising the little bundle of joy, who they named Lorenzo Dominic LaValle. In the months since, the final season of MTV’s long-running reality series has aired, and Snooki has been able to settle down, as well as really work on herself.</p><p>The reality star formerly got into working out after gaining some weight as a member of the <i>Jersey Shore</i> cast. She had just gotten back into shape when the world found out she was pregnant, and she put some of the weight back on while carrying the baby. As the above image shows, she’s lost all of the baby weight and much, much more. Here’s to hoping the pint-sized star is able to stay fit in the months to come.</p>

                            <![CDATA[ On the one hand, it’s easy to see why Christie is so bothered by Snooki and company. He wants the world to think of New Jersey as a progressive place filled with young people contributing to society, but thanks to Jersey Shore’s popularity, the same old stereotypes have taken root for another generation. On the other hand, however, God only knows how much tourism the MTV show brought in over the course of its six seasons. ]]>

                                <p>Governor Chris Christie has never been one to hold back his opinion. If he’s got a problem with you, chances are you know about it, and that’s exactly the position Nicole Snooki Polizzi is in. Back in the day, the popular New Jersey politician sounded off on the ridiculousness of <i>Jersey Shore</i> and made it very clear he thinks the castmembers are exactly the type of <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/pop/Jersey-Shore-Deena-Cortese-Fined-Dancing-Traffic-44249.html" data-original-url="http://www.cinemablend.com/pop/Jersey-Shore-Deena-Cortese-Fined-Dancing-Traffic-44249.html">hard-partying</a>, obnoxious <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/pop/Ronnie-Has-Day-Court-From-Season-One-Jersey-Shore-Fight-33420.html" data-original-url="http://www.cinemablend.com/pop/Ronnie-Has-Day-Court-From-Season-One-Jersey-Shore-Fight-33420.html">stereotypes</a> that keep the Garden State’s reputation a little sketchy.</p><p>Earlier this week, Snooki and Christie both <a href="http://www.tmz.com/2013/05/24/snooki-chris-christie-jersey-hates-video-photo/">appeared</a> on <i>Today</i> to film separate segments about the clean up of <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/pop/Superstorm-Sandy-Cleanup-Seaside-Heights-Begins-55692.html" data-original-url="http://www.cinemablend.com/pop/Superstorm-Sandy-Cleanup-Seaside-Heights-Begins-55692.html">Seaside Heights</a>. Afterwards, the two shook hands and had a relatively brief conversation, but based on the awkwardness of it and the reality star making reference to his hate to the camera after the discussion, it’s pretty clear Governor Christie’s position hasn’t softened over the years.</p><p>On the one hand, it’s easy to see why Christie is so bothered by Snooki and company. He wants the world to think of New Jersey as a progressive place filled with young people contributing to society, but thanks to <i>Jersey Shore’s</i> popularity, the same old stereotypes have taken root for another generation. On the other hand, however, God only knows how much tourism the MTV show brought in over the course of its six seasons. As one of the more buzzed about things on television, it had a real cultural impact, and that definitely had a measurable, monetary effect.</p><p>What do you think?

                                <p>The cast of <i>Jersey Shore</i> might have first come to the attention of American viewers thanks to their wild antics and unapologetic immaturity, but over the past year or so, some of the cast members have begun to grow up quickly. Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi recently got engaged and delivered her first child with boyfriend Jionni LaValle, and now, her BFF Jenni “JWoww” Farley has accepted a proposal from her longtime boyfriend Roger Mathews.</p><p>The engagement news was rumored to be coming for months, but to many fans, it was still a bit of a surprise to see it made official. JWoww always seemed a bit more grown-up than her co-stars, but she still had her share of reckless and crazy good times. If all goes according to plan, the fun will continue for she and Roger but ideally, not the whole reckless part.</p><p>You’d like to think both Snooki and JWoww’s relationships will last forever, but given their ages, preference for partying and just how often marriages fail in general, it’s likely at least one of the two women will wind up in divorce court. So, we put the question to you. Of these two relationships, which one do you think will last longer? Will Snooki and Jionni make it work over the long haul, or will Jenni and Roger put them to shame? Let us know your thoughts by voting in the poll below…</p><p>This poll is no longer available.</p><p>For more questions of the day, head <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/pop" data-original-url="http://www.cinemablend.com/pop/?tag=QOTD">here</a>.</p>

                                <p><i>Jersey Shore</i> is nearing its final fist pump. After three years of hook-ups, fights and giant plates of pasta, MTV announced today that the cast members will be officially moving out of the Shore house following the upcoming sixth season.</p><p>Once upon a time, the show was a ratings juggernaut. It set records, dominated water cooler conversation and quickly became pop culture currency. The Situation and Snooki got famous almost overnight and many of the other cast members earned millions of dollars in endorsements and appearance fees. Over the past couple of seasons, however, the ratings have slowly started to dip. Gone are the days when the show regularly brought in seven to eight million viewers, replaced by episodes struggling to get five million.</p><p>In the grand scheme of things, five million people is still a huge score for a cable show, but with salaries bloating, a downward trend and some of the cast members starting to grow up (The Situation going to rehab, Snooki having a baby), it’s understandable the network would want to get out now. The question is whether their decision was the right one.</p><p><i>Jersey Shore</i> could have easily gone another two or three seasons at minimum. Should it have? Did MTV make the right call by pulling the plug, or should it have let Pauly D and company hang on for a little longer? Let us know your thoughts by voting in the poll below…</p><p>This poll is no longer available.</p><p>For more questions of the day, head <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/pop" data-original-url="http://www.cinemablend.com/pop/?tag=QOTD">here</a>.</p>

He first started working at the publication as a writer back in 2007 and has held various jobs at the site in the time since including Managing Editor, Pop Culture Editor and Staff Writer. He now splits his time between working on CinemaBlend’s user experience, helping to plan the site’s editorial direction and writing passionate articles about niche entertainment topics he’s into. He graduated from Indiana University with a degree in English (go Hoosiers!) and has been interviewed and quoted in a variety of publications including Digiday.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What He’s Into&lt;/strong&gt;: Mack is a professional wrestling fanatic, who enjoys Bobby Heenan’s commentary, Bret Hart’s in-ring work and an angry promo from The Miz. He loves a good case of the week mystery, particularly when it’s solved by Patrick Jane. He’s seen every episode of The Amazing Race, Top Chef and The Great British Bake-Off, among many reality competition shows. He watches more than 50 new release movies a year, yells at his TV during every single Chicago Bulls game and is still mad about what happened to Varys. His all-time favorite TV show is Freaks and Geeks. His all-time favorite movie is Clue. His all-time favorite book is Peter Pan, and most importantly, his all-time favorite snack is a hot english muffin with peanut butter and some chocolate chips sprinkled on top.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What He’s Excited About Right Now&lt;/strong&gt;: I finished The Bear Season 2. I&#039;m currently watching all the Masterchef seasons for the first time, and I&#039;m pumped about the recent push Alpha Academy has been getting on Raw.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; ]]></dc:description>

                                <p>A few days back, some rather racy pictures of Snooki began popping up on the Internet. I say rather racy because they’re fully nude shots with censor bars covering the unmentionables. For awhile, no one was quite sure if they were photoshopped or legitimate or even how they wound up on the web for that matters. Thanks to Snooki, we’re finally starting to get some details.</p><p>The reality star’s rep admitted to <a href="http://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/news/rep-nicole-snooki-polizzis-leaked-nude-pics-were-personal-2012106">US Weekly</a> that the pictures are the genuine article, but they’re somewhat old, were taken for personal reasons and were apparently leaked by an unknown party for financial gain. Just who the culprit might be is anyone’s guess, but her ex-boyfriend Emilio Masella has already vehemently denied to <a href="http://www.tmz.com/2012/06/11/snooki-naked-photos-emilio-masella-boyfriend/">TMZ</a> that he had any part in showing off some of the reality star’s skin.</p><p>Thus far, no uncensored versions of the photographs have emerged. If that winds up holding true over the long haul, the only real embarrassment here is that Snooki must have sent naked shots to someone who couldn’t be trusted. That’s a mistake, but given Snooki’s history, I’m sure the soon-to-be mother won’t lose much sleep over it.</p><p>If you’re looking to catch a glimpse at the censor bars themselves, you can hop on over to <a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2156668/Embarrassment-Jersey-Shores-Snooki-nude-photos-surface-online.html">The Daily Mail</a>. The outlet has copies of all three incriminating pictures, though as noted, don’t expect to glance at too much.</p>

                            <![CDATA[ If Jersey Shore were a scripted series instead of a "reality" show, I would have said outright that Snooki getting pregnant was the ultimate shark-jumping moment of the series. In fact, I doubt I would have predicted it as a plot-twist. I might have pinned the surprise-pregnancy arc on Ronnie and Sammi. Alas, Jersey Shore isn't a scripted drama and Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi is indeed pregnant. While that won't keep her from returning to the series for another summer at the Shore, it will keep her from living in the same house. ]]>

                                <p>If <i>Jersey Shore</i> were a scripted series instead of a "reality" show, I would have said outright that Snooki getting pregnant was the ultimate shark-jumping moment of the series. In fact, I doubt I would have predicted it as a plot-twist. I might have pinned the surprise-pregnancy arc on Ronnie and Sammi. Alas, <i>Jersey Shore</i> isn't a scripted drama and Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi is indeed pregnant. While that won't keep her from returning to the series for another summer at the Shore, it will keep her from living in the same house.</p><p><a href="http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/snooki-jersey-shore-pregnant-327682">According to THR</a>, Snooki is set to return for the next new season of <i>Jersey Shore</i>, but she'll be living in a different house. With the exception of the Miami season and the more recent Italy season, the <i>Jersey Shore</i> cast has stayed at the same Seaside beach house, so Snooki move to another "nearby" location is a fairly drastic change to the format of the show. With that said, it's a responsible decision and one that may or may not have been her own. I could see this being the producers' way of making sure their legal bases are covered or that the series doesn't get any major bad press for having a pregnant woman living in a house full of hard-partiers.</p><p>We'll get to see pregnant-Snooki on reality TV soon enough as Polizzi is set to star alongside fellow <i>Jersey Shore</i> star JWoww in MTV's upcoming spin-off reality series <i>Snooki & JWoww</i>. In fact, getting to see Polizzi going through the early stages of pregnancy may very well be the biggest draw for the series, which feels like it's coming in a year or two after the peak of the <i>Jersey Shore</i> fame and interest. <i>S&J</i> premieres on MTV on June 21.</p>

                                <p>Pregnant celebrities typically like to keep their fans updated by posing for pictures to show off their changing bodies. Some take off all their clothes and <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/pop/Jessica-Simpson-Do-You-Approve-Naked-Pregnancy-Photos-40252.html" data-original-url="http://www.cinemablend.com/pop/Jessica-Simpson-Do-You-Approve-Naked-Pregnancy-Photos-40252.html">grace</a> the cover of a magazine. Others simply make themselves visible in public and allow photographers to keep everyone abreast. Yesterday, Snooki decided to use <a href="http://twitter.com/#!/snooki/status/202883774076301312/photo/1">Twitter</a> to show her protruding stomach.</p><p>About two-thirds of the way through her pregnancy, the reality star is noticeably with child. Judging by the look on her face, she could probably do a few fist pumps at the thought of bringing a child into the world. Unfortunately, every time I look at this picture, I have to force my eyes to actually look at the bump because I’m so goddamn distracted by something else. Take a look at the picture below…</p><figure class="van-image-figure pull-" data-bordeaux-image-check ><div class='image-full-width-wrapper'><div class='image-widthsetter' ><p class="vanilla-image-block" style="padding-top:56.25%;"><img id="d7SFTsU3MHTZgWFCARzMNN" name="" alt="" src="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/d7SFTsU3MHTZgWFCARzMNN.jpg" mos="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/d7SFTsU3MHTZgWFCARzMNN.jpg" align="" fullscreen="" width="" height="" attribution="" endorsement="" class="pull-"></p></div></div></figure><p>Who in God’s name produces shoes like that? It’s like Cyndi Lauper and Betsey Johnson convinced <i>Project Runway’s</i> Josh McKinley to design footwear to be exclusively worn on Halloween. Snooki’s well known for her aggressive fashion choices, but these shoes might be the most outlandish accessory she owns. I can’t take my eyes off them, which, I guess means they’re a raging success.</p><p>Loud shoes aside, Pop Blend wishes Snooki nothing but the best in the home stretch of her pregnancy. At some point, that bump is going to become a little less manageable, but no doubt she’ll figure out a way to bling the shit out of it when the time comes.</p>

                                <p>No one apologizes quite like Snooki. After drawing the ire of some after wildly claiming she’d <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/pop/Snooki-Says-She-Die-She-Looked-Like-Jessica-Simpson-41909.html" data-original-url="http://www.cinemablend.com/pop/Snooki-Says-She-Die-She-Looked-Like-Jessica-Simpson-41909.html">die</a> if she looked like Jessica Simpson at any point during her own pregnancy, Snooki has decided to back up a bit and offer the combination actress and singer a vote of confidence in a decidedly <i>Jersey Shore</i> way. Here’s the exact quote from her <a href="https://twitter.com/#!/snooki/status/196324947700879362">Twitter</a>…</p><div><blockquote><p>I NEVER dissed Jessica Simpson you weirdo tabloids , get over it with your "pregnant war" articles. I love the girl and her hot ass bump</p></blockquote></div><p>This is one of the reasons why Twitter is great. No publicists, no classing up the thoughts in someone’s head. I can almost hear Snooki bellowing every last word of the above tweet and because of that, it makes the whole non-apology/ slap on the back feel even more genuine, especially when viewed in front of the reality star’s leopard print background.</p><p>Besides, Jessica Simpson does have a hot ass bump, but as for how much longer it’ll exist, we’ll just have to wait and see. It feels like she should have given birth weeks ago; so, any time with her rotund midsection we have left is all gravy at this point. As for Snooki, she still has a long way to go, which means there’s plenty of time for her to grow her own hot ass bump. I’m not sure a nobler goal has ever existed.</p>

                                <p>As one of the stars of <i>Jersey Shore</i> and a woman apt to paint the town boozy, Snooki has been the protagonist in more than her share of rumors. As such, she’s uniquely able to handle media firestorms, but something tells me the reality star was completely unprepared for all the press she’s received lately. It all started about a week ago when the pregnancy whispers suddenly became much more <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/pop/Snooki-Jionni-Having-Baby-40004.html" data-original-url="http://www.cinemablend.com/pop/Snooki-Jionni-Having-Baby-40004.html">forceful</a>. Within hours, numerous media outlets were citing their own sources to verify she was with child. Over the past few days, those rumblings haven’t quieted, but today, they were pushed to the backburner thanks to another revelation about her future.</p><p>The spitfire was filming some scenes for her upcoming reality show when cameras spotted her wearing some bling on her left ring finger. <a href="http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20576153,00.html">People</a> did some investigating and heard through the grapevine that Snooki’s boyfriend/ baby daddy Jionni did propose and was greeted with a resounding yes. If true, that’s not exactly a big surprise. She’s talked openly about how a wedding was coming, it was just a matter of him buying the ring and asking.</p><p>So, apparently, Snooki is pregnant and engaged. Last week, I asked readers if they thought Snooki would make a good mother. An <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/pop/Do-You-Think-Snooki-Good-Mother-40022.html" data-original-url="http://www.cinemablend.com/pop/Do-You-Think-Snooki-Good-Mother-40022.html">overwhelming majority</a> said no. So, now I’ll take that question one step further. Do you think she’s wife material?</p><p>Snooki is far from the only women in the world who has hit a rough patch during her twenties. Some of these people are never able to get it together, but a whole lot more eventually grow up and become good wives and partners. What do you think? If someone you knew said he was marrying Snooki, would you give the relationship a thumbs up?

He watches more than 50 new release movies a year, yells at his TV during every single Chicago Bulls game and is still mad about what happened to Varys. His all-time favorite TV show is Freaks and Geeks. His all-time favorite movie is Clue. His all-time favorite book is Peter Pan, and most importantly, his all-time favorite snack is a hot english muffin with peanut butter and some chocolate chips sprinkled on top.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What He’s Excited About Right Now&lt;/strong&gt;: I finished The Bear Season 2. I&#039;m currently watching all the Masterchef seasons for the first time, and I&#039;m pumped about the recent push Alpha Academy has been getting on Raw.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; ]]></dc:description>

                                <p><i>The Jersey Shore</i> is about to get a whole lot more whiny. After weeks of rumors and denials, the truth has finally come out. Snooki is having a baby with boyfriend Jionni LaValle. The reality star is reportedly three of four months along in her pregnancy, which could well set up a baby special to end all baby specials.</p><p>At least if that’s the direction MTV decides to go. The network reportedly hasn’t quite figured out how to handle Snooki’s new baby bump and has been accessorizing her with lots of bags to cover her growing stomach on the set of her and JWoww’s upcoming <i>Jersey Shore</i> spin-off. I get the fear that viewers might be less excited about pregnant Snooki than trainwreck Snooki, but it seems ridiculous to think millions of people wouldn’t still tune in to watch her yell at Jionni about needing pickles immediately.</p><p>Snooki pregnancy rumors first <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/pop/Snooki-Says-She-Pregnant-39180.html" data-original-url="http://www.cinemablend.com/pop/Snooki-Says-She-Pregnant-39180.html">popped up</a> a little less than a month ago, but the twenty-four year old was quick to publicly deny the stories. <a href="http://www.nypost.com/p/pagesix/snooki_lied_she_preggers_LMEWWgqwCvDpaVhud3x6wK?utm_medium=rss&utm_content=Page%20Six">The New York Post</a> claims those lies were to help facilitate an US Weekly cover story, but <a href="http://www.tmz.com/2012/02/29/snooki-pregnant-lied/">TMZ</a> attributes the denials to her wanting to wait at least three months to verify everything was okay. Regardless of why she waited, the news is out there now, and Pop Blend sends out its sincerest congratulations to Snooki and Jionni. They might not be characters out of a Normal Rockwell painting, but the world still needs loud, orange spitfires.</p><p>Here’s to hoping the couple has a girl; so, Snooki can accessorize that baby with every last bit of trashy nonsense Jersey has for sale.</p>

Now it looks like they’ve found an alternative, which still keeps them in Jersey but also within commuting distance to New York City. Jersey City, here they come!</p><p>From the sound of it, the issue with filming in Hoboken was more about the geography of the city and issues with public safety concerns, as it’s not that big a city, relatively speaking, and the attention might cause crowds and traffic jams. There was also the issue of the show wanting to have permission to film in public locations at all hours, which would have violated a rule of the city’s prohibiting filming past 11:00 p.m. In other words, the city didn’t seem like the right set-up for the show, at least, from the perspective of the city.</p><p><a href="http://www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/mtv-jwoww-snooki-spin-jersey-city-kicked-curb-hoboken-article-1.1019596?localLinksEnabled=false">The Daily News</a> is reporting that MTV has permission to shoot the <i>Jersey Shore</i> spinoff reality series in Jersey City.</p><div><blockquote><p>“My view is the more people that see anything about Jersey City and see what we have in Jersey, the better it is for Jersey City,” Mayor Jerramiah Healy told WNYW/Ch. 5’s John Huddy, who broke the story.</p></blockquote></div><p>The show has permission to shoot for six weeks in a location near Grove and Mercer Streets. It’s apparently a two-story building that’s described as an old firehouse. That sounds more like something we’d see in <i>The Real World</i> rather than a spin-off for two people. Still, it should be interesting to see what they do with the location. And for those of us who can’t seem to help indulging in these kinds reality shows, it’ll also be interesting to see how Snooki and JWoww do with their own show.</p>

                                <p>It seems <i>Jersey Shore</i>’s Pauly D may not be the only one getting a spinoff series on MTV. Word is, JWoww and Snooki are shooting a pilot for their own show on Long Island this weekend.</p><p>This seems to be in the rumor phase right now as <a href="http://www.tmz.com/2011/01/20/snooki-jwoww-jersey-shore-spinoff-show-television-mtv-pilot-long-island-tv-mtv/">TMZ</a> reports that <i>Jersey Shore</i>’s JWoww (Jenni Farley) and Snooki (Nicole Polizzi) are shooting a pilot for their own reality TV series on Long Island this weekend. TMZ notes that it’s interesting that MTV would require a pilot considering the high ratings of <i>Jersey Shore</i>, however perhaps the premise alone, which apparently involves the girls being themselves, wasn’t enough to sell MTV on the necessity of the spin-off.</p><p>If you watch <i>Jersey Shore</i> then you know that Snooki and JWoww have become close friends and are rarely at odds with one another. Given the drama on <i>JS</i>, that’s saying something, so a team-up for their own makes sense. And since JWoww is from Long Island, the setting does as well. Whether or not MTV decides to pick up the pilot remains to be seen but I can’t imagine MTV choosing <i>not</i> to continue to cash in on the <i>JS</i> ratings while there are still cast members willing to partake in public displays of drunken activity and dramatic social interactions.</p><p>I’ll probably watch this show if it actually comes to fruition. Please don’t judge me.</p>
