Just In Case You Were Wondering If Jersey Shore's Ronnie and Sammi Were Still Together

They are NOT. This according to Snooki and JWOWW on The Wendy Williams Show today. I mean, I think they haven't been together for months now. But, you know - if you needed more confirmation, now you got it.

Ronnie, what do you think? Ronnie? Where'd he go????????
Oh, here he is...

k, bye!

Jersey Shore Judgements: The Emancipation of Snooki......'s Bladder

These are raw, unedited judgements I wrote down in sequence as I watched the show - Season 5 Episode 5:  

• How can we get Deena to stop "merp"ing? (My dog stops yelping if I give him cheese, so there's that)
• Is Mayor Roger doing the "dip" on JWOWW again?
• This was all of our faces when The Situation dropped the loyalty and betrayal tattoo bomb right?

• I feel the sads when I see the gang at Karma this time around.  I think it's because they didn't cut to a :05 shot of Sammi brawling on the floor.
• Why is Snooki calling a hooker's bath a "Shore shower?" Oh, never mind. 
• You know what?  I think we're all one of two things after the club:  a Deena eating Hot Pockets or a Vinny doing Push Ups.  Which on are you? I'm a Hot Pocket.
• After four seasons of Ronnie and Sammi drama, I have Stockholm syndrome.  So now I feel betrayed that they are glossing over these two - ON PURPOSE
• Why is Snooki sleeping in her shoes?  
• What's the picture below, you ask? Oh, just Snooki being Snooki (AKA throwing away her drawers because she pee'd herself in the club the night before. AND THEN SHE SLEPT IN THEM ALL NIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BEFORE THROWING THEM AWAY AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

• It's a little sad when Deena's only running story line is "hair problems" 
• Miikee?  Mike? Miiiiiiiiiiiiike? What are you up to? What are you up to?
• Ohhhhhhh, so "Janx" is "Jenkinson's?" Mystery solved.
• Mike: "I'm actually like a native to this area." How far is Janx from the Shore?  Is this like a Scooby Doo alternate universe to the gang?
• Snooki has fully transformed into the family pet - piddling on the deck outside.  Bad Snooki! bad!

• Serious question: Why were the scrambling Situation's pubic area when he was wearing shorts?
• Never mind, thank you JWOWW for solving the mystery.  Follow up question - why were Snooki and Deena acting all normal while Mike's "situation" was hanging out of his shorts?
• Hold up, wait a minute - what is this country cottage, shabby chic, Laura Ashley sitting area Mike and Snooki just landed in? Is this part  of the Scooby Doo alternate universe at the house?

• Why are all those sneakers always lined up in rows in the living room?
• What the?

• Ok, so Snooki ACTUALLY IS the family pet now - not just metaphorically speaking.  Interesting. Did Kafka write this episode?

• How excited is Mike to tell JWOWW he saw Mayor Roger? He loves being an information trafficker.  
• What was that weird gyrating dance Mike was doing at the end when he was talking to Unit?  Hmmmmmmmm.

• Wait, how is it that Mike loves Snooki and they're BFF and all of a sudden he says she's the ringleader against him?  Oh, I think I know - MTV Production had a chat with him.  I see what you did there MTV.
• In conclusion, who saw Snooki and JWOWW on BravoAndy Cohen's Watch What Happens Live?  Was JWOWW's face even more plasticized?  It wasn't moving right or something.  But I really want to like her - she's pretty, she just needs to stop messing with what she got, ya heard?

Jersey Shore's Ronnie and Sammi Broke Up Again

 
A lot of you have been emailing me about this. Yes, I heard about it, but frankly I'm a bit sick and tired of the Ronnie Sammi thing.  Kinda like Lindsay Lohan, the story is so repetitive and played out by now!!!! YAWN!!!!

But for those of you who care, according to a bunch of news stories that broke in the past couple of days, they're off again.

Why you ask?  According to TheDirty.com, it's because of a story that THEY recently broke about Ronnie cheating on Sammi.

Seriously, do we really care anymore?  If, after Season 5 (which has already been filmed), there's more Jersey Shore, we all know Sammi will take him back AGAIN.

These two have no problem staying broken up when they're NOT FILMING.  But when they are, it's either a PR move, or she can't say no to him.  Either way, I'm bored.  Is this story over yet?  I say yes.

Oh, Hai MTV - Quick Question....

Why Did Vinny Delpino show up at the VMAs last night?  And why did he call himself Joe Calderone? And why did everyone keep calling him Lady Gaga?



KthanksBai

OMG Arvin Lall Shows Up On Jimmy Fallon's "Jersey Floor" !!!! BRB GOING TO BREATHE INTO A PAPER BAG LIKE THEY DO IN THE SITCOMS!!!!!!

So anyone who knows me (AKA my dog) knows that I enjoy Jimmy Fallon's Jersey Floor and Real Housewives of Late Night more than I friggin love the original shows themselves (which is a friggin lot - cause I friggin live for dem shows) (oh PS, don't mind the accent, I just got done watching Mob Wives and it takes a while for the Staten Island to get off me).

So anyhoo, I'm doing my late night channel surfing and my boy Jimmy graced us with a new episode of Jersey Floor tonight.

But if that wasn't enough of a treat as I was enjoying my night cheese and PM pinot, three quarters of the way through, guess who decides to make a surprise cameo  when they play the Stalker Bugle (AKA the Jersey Floor version of the Grenade Whistle. Keep up!) like it's no big deal?????

None other than ARVIN LALL of Arvin Lall from Jersey Shore Season 3 drove an irreparable wedge between Ronnie and Sammi and then we were all mad but then we did some Internet stalking and subsequent blogging about him so then he kind of grew on us in an ironic way fame!!!!!

ARVIN FRIGGIN LALLLLLLLLL!!!!  In all his smuggy glory!!! Thank dog for the rewind button cause if you blink you'll miss him!

Oh yeah - these broads showed up too. NBD.

Check out the full episode below to see for yourselves:. 



(P.S. Hey Arvin, if you ever Google yourself - who are we kidding, WHEN YOU GOOGLE YOURSELF TOMORROW - aand stumble upon this site, email us a shout out to publish at payattentiontoblog@gmail.com - your growing fan club here will go crazy).

Jersey Shore's Sammi and Ronnie Looked Very Together Leaving Seaside (Season 3). So Was MTV Lying To Us?

 

Store this one in the "shaking my head" file.  The - dare I say it - underwhelming Jersey Shore finale left me more confused than usual. Sure the story lines were all tied up in a pretty bow - JWOWW got her man, Vinny found his inner douche, Mike was the town gossip, Team Meatball was in full effect, and Sammi and Ronnie were "over" for good. But was it REAL?

The entire time I was watching it, I kept thinking everything seemed more  "produced" than ever before.   But something very specific was gnawing at me, I just couldn't put my finger on it.

UNTIL TODAY!

I woke up in a cold sweat, slapping my forehead.  "Ah, yes" I screamed to myself.  "The photos!!!!!"

A little background: one of the downfalls of being a successful reality show is the paparazzi attention. By the time Season 3 came around for Jersey Shore, the photogs and fans with camera phones were ever-present.  Surely a thorn in the side of MTV.  If you've ever seen the raw footage from fan cell phones on YouTube or TMZ type coverage of the kids on the Shore last summer, you saw in actuality that they had throngs of fans screaming their names everywhere they went. So you know the editors and sound guys did a lot of extra work to make it look like the JS cast were still normal kids having a typical Seaside experience.

Cut to sometime in September 2010 when I was perusing one of my favorite blogs, "A Socialite's Life."  There were 40+ images (via WENN photo agency) featuring the cast bidding farewell to the shore house.  KABLAMO - here's Exhibit A, B, C through Z to prove that Sammi and Ronnie did not leave the house in the way that MTV lead us to believe - a screenshot from ASL  (visit the site to see the full gallery):  

As you can see, Sammi and Ronnie were hugging and even kissing goodbye.  They sure looked together, or at the very least on good terms to us.  As we also told you (way before the gossip rags), they eventually had a more permanent "break-up" in January.

Here's my guess as to what happened.  Given that Sammi and Ronnie broke up in January, the post-production team soon after cut a finale that showed a permanent break up to catch up with time.  That way, the Reunion special would be more current.  Mmmm Hmmmm, we see what you did there M(anipulation)TV.

October 2011 Update on Ronnie and Sammi's Relationship!

Who's This Arvin (Lall) Guy From Jersey Shore?

Some dude  named Arvin sure stirred up a lot of dramz on tonight's Jersey Shore.  But seriously, who is this guy?  

A little bit of digging turned up a couple clues.  His name is Arvin Lall.  He's from Jersey (natch) and went to Rutgers University.  Oh yeah, and here is a snapshot of his Facebook (closed) profile - not much else to glean.  Picture is pretty typical for the Guido Juicehead species dontcha think???

P.S., you can't see it here because who ever took this crappy screen cap cut it off, but he also "likes" Larry David and Curb Your Enthusiasm - at least we have that in common.  Oh and he likes "cuddling" too, lucky for you ladies.

UPDATE -CHECK OUT OUR LATEST POST ON ARVIN HERE. YOU WON'T BE SORRY!!!!! 

Teen Mom 2 & Teen Mom: Updates on Cast

The ups and downs of being a teen are relenentless.  The cast of Teen Mom is no exception and according to the Twitter feeds of the young ladies - there have been a lot of updates in recent weeks (since the time of filming).

• We are assuming that the volatile relationship between Chelsea Houska (@ChelseaHouska) and Adam Lind is once again over based on her Tweet on March 3, 2011:

• OK! Magazine this week reported Chelsea Houska's best friend and former roommate, Megan Nelson  is now pregnant too (she is 19).  Megan (@MENelson10) confirmed the news on her Twitter page on March 7 stating:

 "121 days left of my pregnancy :-) :-) going by fast!"

• We can assume that Maci Bookout (@MaciBookoutMTV) and her boyfriend Kyle King are still going strong as she Tweeted yesterday:

 "Loveeee kyle he perfect and loves me" 

• Leah Messer (@LeahDawnMesser) wants us to know that she and Corey Simms are married and still together, she Tweeted yesterday saying:

 "Just for the record, Corey and I are NOT divorcing!(:"

• We also seethat Kailyn Lowry (@kaailll) and her new boyfriend Jordan are likely still together based on her March 4 Twitter proclamation and Twitpic:  

"You are so handsome.@rennew_nadroj"  

Jersey Shore Dreams Into Reality: Featuring Deena and DJ Pauly D

Did you ever just sit there and think to yourself: "I really wish I could see Deena Nicole Cortese making clown-style balloon animals while sharing deep thoughts on relationships with DJ Pauly D?"

It's JERSDAY!!!! - Our Prep Ritual PLUS Updates on the Jersey Shore Gang

Jersday is heeeeeeyah.  Creepy Ronnie behind the plant (kudos to the cameraman who couldn't have staged a better shot if he tried) invites you in....

We do a lot of prep on Jersdays before we can comfortably sit down on the couch and revel in the crazy shenanigans of our favorite Guidos and Guidettes:

1. We gotta get our hoop earrings on, so we can take them off all dramatic to signal "we about to throw down" when someone in our "viewing party" (AKA our dog) tries to talk (AKA bark) too loud during the episode.
2. We dust off our bunny slippers and throw them on, along with our hottest leopard print dress, which we've been wearing since Tuesday.
3. We gotta make sure we've watched all the current Jersey Shore Dailies.  We study these tapes with the aplomb of a Fox News body language expert cause sometimes there are hidden signs of foreboding.  We use this knowledge to back up the smug "we knew that was going to happen" look on our face to the envy, nay jealousy, of all our friends we're watching with (see #1 for a list of said friends). 
4. And very soon (fingers crossed by next week) we'll be throwin' our Pajama Jeans into the Jersday Prep wardrobe rotation.  

So anyway, here's your Jersey Shore roundup to catch you up on what the gang's been up to this week (in real life time):

• Mike the situation (<-- tersely not capitalized, cause you know, it's Mike) is using Rosetta Stone to learn Italian before leaving to Italy for Season 4.
• JWOWW is still doing the rounds for her "book" (AKA pamphlet) tour.  Today, Access Hollywood Live put her on the spot about whether current beau Roger was "the one."  Barf.  P.S. if anyone reading this has actually bought and read her book, please send us an email (payattentiontoblog@gmail.com) so we can do an interview with you for the site.
• Snooki hosted the MTV Grammy show and spent some QT Valentine's time with her man Jionni.  Apparently, her ex, Emilio, did something obnoxious this week but we were too uninterested to look it up.
• DJ Pauly D did some Grammy hosting too we think.  He's just all over the place DJing and what not (we think, didn't really spend too much time on our Pauly research this week since it's always the same ol' with him DJing in Vegas, NY, NJ, Rhode Island, Canada etc... etc...)
• Vinny is kind of getting grosser and grosser on his Twitter, in only what we can assume is a cry for attention. 
• Sammi is transmitting Twitter pic after pic of shots that showcase her (possibly newly purchased) breasts.  Most recently one in a car on the way to the Bebe fashion show taken from a very convenient angle. They kind of scream desperation to the outside world,  but we think she thinks they'll make Ronnie "eat his heart out."
• Meanwhile, Ronnie's still hawking Xenadrine, and promoting some Playboy Radio interview in what we can only imagine is an attempt for Sammi to "eat her heart out."  Oy these two. 

P.S. the old news one, AKA Angelina, apparently got engaged this week.  Yawn.

P.P.S. Stop creepin behind the plant like Ronnie and leave a comment!!!!!!!!!!!  It's just one click below and you can do it anonymously! Or send us an email about what we should blog on next (payattentiontoblog@gmail.com).

Can We Talk About Snooki Passing Out With JWoww's Dogs?

Are we in agreement this was the most entertaining part of this week's Jersey Shore?

Our elaborate, highly-skilled rendition of the incident

Runners up were:

• Ron Ron's butt drama
• The rise and fall of Snooki's infatuation with a poor unsuspecting guido
• Pauly's t-shirt time with Danielle the Israeli "stalker"

Jersey Shore: What Happened With Vinny and Ryder? Snooki Explains

Vinooki invites you in...

Source: Snooki's Twitter photos via Plixi

So, have we mentioned how obsessed we are with Jersey Shore Dailies?   Jersey Shore Dailies are basically mundane Jersey Shore scrap clips from the editing room floor that are barfed onto the web with some ads (that are nearly as long as the clips themselves) so MTV can squeeze every last ounce of blood from a stone. And guess what? We return each day like salivating Pavlovian dogs, pressing the refresh button in hopes for more treats.

Anyhoo, our persistence in culling these hidden treasures has finally paid off (if paying off means making no money, nobody caring and us getting fatter from inactivity).  We've finally unearthed the diamond in the rough unlocking the mysteries of the Vinny/Ryder Hook Up (AKA VinDerGate 2010).  Pauly D. provides much needed comic relief as Snooki and Vinny have an intense discussion that will leave nary a droy oye in da howse:



Did we learn anything new? Kind of.  Snooki says Ryder will be visiting the Shore house in two weeks for her birthday (so our PREDICTION that Ryder will make another appearance this season is panning out quite well, but we selfishly digress) which leads to the long-awaited exchange.  Here's what we've pieced together:

1. Sometime between Season 2 and Season 3, Vinny and Ryder hooked up IN SNOOKI'S HOUSE!
2. Vinny and Ryder were hooking up in Snooki's bed until Snooki walked in and saw "ass" and Ryder's "kuka" at which point they (VinDer) ran into the bathroom and wouldn't come out despite Snooki's questioning
3. At some point in the past, prior to VinDerGate 2010, Snooki hooked up with Vinny's cousin. We are not clear if this is the "making out" or "sex" kind of "hooking up" as these two definitions are interchangeable in Guido lexicon
4. At some point after VinDerGate 2010, Snooki, heartbroken, ran back into the arms of Vinny's cousin  
5. Points #3 and #4 make up the foundation of The Great Vinny Defense of 2010:  a loophole in the "sex with the best friend" betrayal by means of a contrived diversion.  In TGVD2010, the perp plays up to the victim's ego by feigning sadness from an unrelated incident [which is unrelated because a) the first time was before Snooks and Vin hooked up b) the second was after he did it with her best friend and c) because Vinny really couldn't care less - you can see it in his sh1t-eating grin. Amirite or amirite?].  We see what you did there Vinny. Well played. 

P.S.  How crazy was the incessant fan-screaming from the Bennys on the streets?   It's raw footage like this that pierces the veil between MTV fantasy and the zoolike reality AKA don't be fooled, these aren't just some normal kids in Seaside anymoah.   But we do have a new-found respect for the MTV editors that have skillfully masked the issue with close ups and audio trickery.  We see what you did there MTV.

Jersey Shore's Fringe Characters - Where Are They Now? Israeli Stalker, Jay 420, Joey Yanks, Ryder & Uncle Nino

 

It's Jersday bitches.

Ok - so JWOWW, Snooki, DJ Pauly D, The Situation, Sammi Sweetheart and Ronnie (oh yea, and I guess Angelina/Deena) have captured our black hearts and infiltrated American zeitgeist.  But there's more to Jersey Shore than this beef jerky bunch. 

A much broader cast of "characters" completes the Jersey Shore "world."

Oh boy, hold on, let me take another sip of pink chablis before my last shred of dignity is ... oh wait, nope nothing left there. So let's get to it.

Ryder
Twitter Handle: http://twitter.com/ryder__


Who is she?
Ryder is Snooki's "best friend."  She has made appearances in Season 1 & 2 (so far) visiting Snooki.  You can tell these two are REALLY friends (ahem Deena ahem) by their like mannerisms and inside jokes. When they're together, Snooki comes off looking like the "smart one" which speaks volumes.  Together, they like to party, goof off, speak in their own distinct language (like all good Guidos/Guidettes do), finish each other's sentences and make JWOWW feel like an outcast. 

Anything else we should know?
In Episode 1 Season 3, Snooki confronts her crush, Vinny (as they stew in the hot tub - awwwkward) about sleeping with Ryder two weeks earlier and the two have a weird moment.  It seems as if Snooki may have even implied that the two had some booty sex, but it was hard to tell from all the bleeping.  Also, in a bonus Jersey Shore Daily clip, after Snooki leaves the hot tub, Vinny tells JWOWW that Snooki hooked up with his cousin two weeks before he hooked up with Ryder, but this part of the story is not as well known (you know, since most people have lives and don't constantly refresh their browsers for new Jersey Shore Dailies).

What's she up to now?
Ryder is apparently feeling the heat from Snooki supporters. The morning after the episode aired, she tweeted "if only i had a dollar for the amount of times people called me a whore last night."  The following day (1/8), she went on "@Ryder__ Loves that everyone is hating when they have no idea what they are talking about. @Sn00ki is my best friend and will always be."

Will she make an appearance this season?
Purely conjecture at this point but we think we'll be seeing more of Ryder this season. So there's that.

Jay 420 & Joey Yanks
Twitter Handles: http://twitter.com/DrJay420 & http://twitter.com/_JoeyYanks

JWOWW and Jay 420



Joey Yanks?

Who are they?
These guys are JWOWW's friends from Long Island.  How do we know about them?  During a fight between JWOWW and Angelina in Season 2 Miami, JWOWW accuses Angelina of talking behind her back between Seasons 1 and 2 only to have Angelina deny deny deny then ask "Says who?"  It was at this moment that the most beatiful names in the history of reality television were uttered - Jay 420 and Joey Yanks - prompting millions of next-day water cooler conversations "Who are these fellas?"

Yeah so?
People were perplexed and intrigued by these elusive Guidos who never appeared on screen, yet had such an impact on the unfolding story.  Thankfully, Tracie from Jezebel.com did some digging and got to the bottom of the Jay 420 mystery [AKA she stalked his life on Facebook and MySpace].  Tracie eventually got to meet  Jay 420and did a hilarious on-camera interview with him.

Ok, now I'm interested, got anything else on them?

Oh yeah.  Upon further digging we came upon a glorious little nugget: a YouTube video of these classy cats guys and bonus new guy Johnny Shine in Seaside Heights.  The video was taken during the same time period as filming of Season 3 (in August 2010).  In the video, the three  gentlemen have just arrived in Seaside and are right next to the Shore house. They show the mayhem outside the shore house and describe the long "loyne" outside the T-shirt shop where the JS cast works.  But, as Jay 420 put it, they didn't have to wait in the loyne since they're "VIP, Jenni came running out the store jumpin' on us."   Then they play a FOR REAL boardwalk carnival game called "Shoot the Guido" where they have to shoot at a dummy made to look like Snooki on it. Heh. Bennies.

Why didn't you embed the video here (you idiot)?
Get off me.  The reason is this - it's pretty disgusting and quickly devolves into lots of pooping (a segment they call "the Shit Shore") and snot and um, ew just gross.  We kind of watched it 15 times and then shame showered.  Can we  just give you the link and not speak of this again? http://www.youtube.com/user/MrJohnnyshine#p/u/5/F5FHRmCJ8vM P.S. watch at your own risk and don't blame us when you hurl.

Will we see them in the show this season?
Outlook seems very good. In the video, the threesome proclaim they will be going out with the crew later in the evening. The clip then picks back up with the three hungover lads getting back in the car to leave the next morning.  They had to have signed Non Disclosure Agreements so they obvs couldn't show/say anything else that would cross the MTV Gods. 

What's going on with them today?
These days one can find Dr. Jay 420 on Twitter, riding JWOWW's coat tails and claiming he promotes "some of the hottest clubs in NYC."  Interestingly, he also seems to be chummy with JWOWW's ex, Tom (who is currently embroiled in a lawsuit with Jenni AND trying to sell nude pics of her to the highest-bidding trashy publication.) Joey Yanks? Still Tbd.

Danielle the Israeli Stalker

Via Cocotona.com


Who is she?
The case of Danielle the Israeli stalker is a curious one.  In the first season, we find her briefly dating Pauly - trying to convince him to go to the Holy Land, and then, as he puts it "stalk my life on the boardwalk."   Danielle calls the house (via duck phone) about 11 times one night looking for Pauly after the infamous boardwalk incident.  The next morning he tells her to buzz off.

Was that it?
In a bizarre twist, the two run into one another in the club that night and Pauly leaves with her, leading us to believe there was more to the story.  So much for sticking to his guns. In the Jersey Shore Season 1 Reunion, Pauly reveals that Danielle later stalked his life in Rhode Island one night while he was DJ'ing in a club. 

Got anything else on her?
Glad you asked.  The plot thickens.  There IS a whole other side to this story.
An (alleged) interview with Danielle on the site cocotona.com purports that MTV may have omitted some criticial plot elements.  In the interview, she reveals:

We knew each other more than 2 days. They switch it all up... He [Pauly] was complimenting me on how pretty I was and telling me his last name would be mine and telling people I am his girl and all the crap in the would came out of his mouth. And that day on the boardwalk when I “stalked his whole life,” he came to my store and I wasn’t there. Then he saw me on the boardwalk and he gave me an Italian bracelet with my name on it. He labeled me and he said don’t say I never gave you something. So as a JOKE, I made that shirt in my store, labeling him and told him, don’t say I never gave you something... And at the end in the club, I wasn’t like there. I was with a group of people and  me and him (Pauly) talk and he told me that he didn’t stop thinking of me and all that, that he liked me at the end after all the crap that he talked.  

Does she say anything in the article about stalking Pauly's life in Rhode Island?
Yes. This is what Danielle reportedly said:

We got in an argument and I said some hurtful stuff to him and he got mad and I tried to apologize and all and I felt really bad. My two friends I was with said let’s go to Rhode Island to surprise him and say you’re sorry. As crazy as it is, we did drive there. He was DJing in a small lounge and it was practically empty and with an older crowd. I got there and he said he didn’t pay attention to me when I was there. There’s lie No. 2. He got out of the DJ place and he let his friend DJ, DJ Freezy. We went outside to talk and we talked about 30 minutes and he told me he didn’t want it to end and all that. We went inside and sat with my friends for like an hour or so and then we were saying goodbye to him and he grabbed me and kissed me over there and told me to come Sunday to see him for the week and we will hang out and all the usual crap that comes out of his mouth. I’m on my way to Seaside with my friends and he texts me, you shoulda stayed, I miss you, I wanna see you, did you get home?, up to like 5 o’clock in the morning and he texted me the day after and all so to make himself look good on TV again, he lied which I think he is getting really good at it.

Do we believe this article?   
Seems plausible, but in another story about Danielle at JewishJournal.com the writer speaks to Danielle's (devastated) mom who says that the girl ran off to Israel after the Jersey Shore episode because she was so humiliated by her highly-edited portrayal. 

What to believe? Who knows.

Will we see her again this season?
Apparently Danielle work(ed?) at a fashion shop on the boardwalk.  There are some rumors swirling that Danielle will be back this season (fingers crossed) so we'll have to wait and see.

UPDATE 1/18: We were right!!! Danielle appeared in the 1/17/10 episode! Our forensics don't lie. You're welcome. 


UPDATE 2/4: Danielle also appeared in a second episode in Season 3 which aired 2/3.  A couple new developments from this episode added to our suspicions that there's more to the story than meets the eye (AKA Pauly D. reciprocated Danielle's feelings more than we were lead to believe): 1) Pauly invited Danielle back to the house after running into her at the club, and 2) Pauly still had the "I Love Isareli Girls" t-shirt Danielle gave to him.  Somethin's fishy at the Showah.... We see what you did there Pauly...


Uncle Nino
Twitter Handle: http://twitter.com/RealUncleNino


Who is he?
Uncle Nino is Vinny's "old school Italian" uncle (on his mother's side).  He came down with the rest of Vin's family to visit him in Miami. 

Nino likes the ladies and quickly hopped in the jacuzzi with the housemates soon after arriving in Miami.  Basically, he's the old guy at the club. He's also loud, boisterous and grunt/talks like his mouth is full of marbles.  You can pick up on every third word he barfs out of his piehole and then sort of piece together the meaning of what he's trying to say. 

What's he been up to?
People love characters and Uncle Nino is no exception. He has picked up quite the following since his Miami appearance.  Vinny has featured him in some homemade videos. Nino even started a Twitter which has quickly grown to 15k plus.  It even looks like he's picked up some representation  - you can book this "Original Guido" (as he calls himself) for your next event.  Milk it Nino, we ain't mad atcha.

Here's Uncle Nino at a club appearance:



He's also in a cheesy Staten Island used car buyer commercial. You can find that and other Uncle Nino vidoes on the same YouTube channel as the video above.

Think he'll be on Season 3?
This one is hardest to predict.  On the one hand, MTV knows how to jump on growing popularity to exploit it for all it's worth.  But, who knows if Season 3 (love/fight etc...) plot lines leave room for family stuff?

Watching Lo Bosworth's UStream - Boooooooooring

As we speak.... She's promoting some new book in a live UStream chat.. (don't judge me, I'm bored so I logged in.  This is what inclement weather does to us).  Back to the subject at hand.  Yes, Lo Bosworth, fringe 3rd string character from The Hills has a book out.  We see what you did there Lo.
Anyhoozles, she just got through a round of boring book-related AKA obvious publicist selected/planted quesitons.  So obvs I tuned out. 

I tuned back in at this point (slight paraphrasing in answers because as I typed what she said, my fingers tried to enact a civil war against my brain for putting them thorough this atrocity):

Do you still talk to people from Laguna Beach/Hills?

Yes I live with Lauren.  Stephanie is one of my really close friends....  

[Blah Blah Blah nothing good here]

Did you secretly think your friends on The Hills wore too much makeup?

On the show, I dont think so... we didn't have hair and makup teams on the show. We did it all ourselves.  We were not as cute in older seasons. We'd watch the show and realize 'I need to wear...more makeup'. So no, I dont think they wear too much makeup. No.

[WOW, I can't believe I was still paying attention at this point]

What other projects are you working on?
I have another potentional book in the works.  I am actualy producing a new show that will be on TV this ear.  I'll be on TV in a new way, not reality television

Oh lord Lo, if your TV show is even 1% as boring as this crapfest I just can't. I can't even.

Meh. Meh. Meh. What a let down. If you want to sell books, we need to hear about Audrina, Speidi, Lauren, your breakup etc. etc... . Girlfriend really need to take a page out of the Snooki manual.  Snooks is giving 11 year olds Snooki makeovers, throwing cast mates under the bus etc. etc.  And now her sh1t is sold out!!

Sorry that this post was so barfy boring by association.  Let's cut the cord while we're ahead.

And scene. 

Deconstructing Snooki

The Diminutive Dynamo With a Mighty Roar

I'm Just Sayin'

Before you judge Snooki, let's just take a step back and try to find out why the entire country (including me) is so infatuated with her.  

True she's gimmicky and flashy - and some people are simply gawking at someone "different."  But if that was all she had, her five minutes would have passed by now.  There's something underneath that orange shellack that keeps us mesmerized and coming back for more.  This rare young flower possesses an appeal that is enviable.  

To women, especially those under 5'3," dark haired or ethnic (guilty), she makes us realize the fact that we are different from the "stereotypical ideal" or that we look like cute little girls doesn't mean we should be submissive, meek or scared. 

Let me tell you - when you're this short and have people literally looking down at you all day long, it can really get to you psychologically.  Trust me I know. 

But not Snooki - she stands tall and proud.  She knows what she wants and she doesn't change herself for anybody. She has a presence, a voice and can command a room.  In all seriousness, years of post-graduate education did not teach me this most important life lesson.   

She is charismatic, witty, humorous and can start a trend like nobody's business, which is why I sat in the hair accessory aisle at CVS for 10 minutes last weekend wondering if I should buy those white plastic hair clips she coifs her poof with.  For the record, I didn't.  Maybe next time.

My head hurts from all this philosphizing.  I kind of can't believe that I really tried to get this deep about a cast member of the Jersey Shore.  Not trying to gush by any means - and I don't endorse everything she does.  But when you look at this singular aspect, it's an interesting point to consider.
