More Snooki without makeup photos

Say what you will about Jersey Shore‘s demonstrative little superstar meatball, but no one can argue that Snooki knows how to give fans what they want – and it was clear after Snooki’s makeup-free photo took the internet by storm last night that what they wanted was more all-natural Snooki!

Snooki claims that The Situation is broke, Mob Wives are nut jobs

If you’re lonely and need special attention it’s a pop culture fact that Jersey Shore’s Snooki gives great interview. In a recent sit down with GQ the best selling author and reality star lets us in on the woman behind the tan. The interview meanders from here to there, much like Snooki after a few mixed drinks but there were two comments that I particularly enjoyed. One was about The Sitch being broke and the other has to do with my girls from Mob Wives. Still Jersday at da ‘Casm peeps!

VIDEO Compelling evidence that Jersey Shore is fake

A comedian by the name of Sean Klitzner has what he believes to be irrefutable proof that Jersey Shore is a staged show.

VIDEO Anderson Cooper gives Snooki props, reads from her first book

Anderson Cooper has a history with Jersey Shore’s Snooki and it isn’t pretty. He’s taken advantage of the reality star by poking fun of her novel A Shore Thing. While Cooper has postured a position of holier than thou he has now conceded to Nicole Polizzi’s literary skills after discovering that she has signed a second book deal which, as he points out, is one more than him.

Top Ten Jersey Shore photos from Florence, Italy

As residents of Florence, Italy survey the damage left in the wake of Jersey Shore Season 4 I thought I might put together a small virtual scrapbook of some of the cast’s most memorable moments caught on camera.

Though they were only “in country” for five weeks, Snooki, The Situation, Pauly D, JWoww, Sammi Sweetheart, Ronnie, Vinny and Deena had a slew of Kodak moments that if nothing else made the jobs of bloggers like me just that much easier! From bullhorning gypsies to chef-hatted scooter rides the JS crew were a wellspring of remarkable images and stories that inspired shock or laughter or both on a daily basis.

Jersey Shore calls Florence’s bluff, exposes big time party town?

Florence, Italy may well be the cultural capital of Europe. With art and architectural treasure comparable to Rome or Paris and a walkable central district smaller than some American mega-malls, Florence packs a serious cultural wallop. Add some of the best food and wine in the world and an ethereally beautiful countryside, and you have an unstoppable combination of attractions for practically anyone willing to apply for a passport and board a plane.

But, Florence is also a mecca for good-timing young folks from around the globe – a place where they can tell their parents about soaking in the likes of Brunelleschi, Michelangelo and da Vinci while actually spending all day and night soaking in the spirits of Brunello (wine) and house music at the disco. It’s a side of Florence vital to their economy, but not something the want to publicize – especially on, say, one of the most popular reality series in the world! Keep reading for our in-depth report from Ruby Turpin, our resident academic currently vacationing in Florence!

PHOTOS Snooki and boyfriend Jionni LaValle kiss and make up after nightclub argument

Shortly after Jersey Shore‘s Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi drove her Fiat Multipla into an Italian police car, her boyfriend Jionni LaValle flew into Florence to comfort his diminutive darling.

Snooki crashes car into police vehicle, currently in custody in Florence, Italy

The cast of Jersey Shore have spent a relatively quiet couple of weeks in Florence, Italy with the only headlines being Ronnie’s scuffle with The Situation and Deena’s novelty nude David apron.

PHOTOS Snooki pulls a groin – this time it’s her own

We all know Snooki’s got some gymnastic chops as evidenced by some of her high school cheerleading videos as well as her recent showmanship inside a professional wrestling ring.

PHOTOS Jersey Shore cast puts the T in GTL in the ITL (Go to a tanning salon in Italy)

The surreal confluence of Jersey Shore meets Italy continues as the cast gets acclimated to their new Tuscan digs – or perhaps it would be more accurate to say “as their new Tuscan digs get acclimated to them.”

One thing America’s favorite Guidos and Guidettes will not allow is for a trip to Florence, Italy to interfere with their acronympho mantra, GTL! The boys and gals were photographed earlier on their way to a tanning salon – and from the looks of them and their attire it seems the G and the L are safe as well! (For those of you in Florence or other remote regions of the world not yet familiar with the Guidocabulary, GTL stands for Gym, Tan, Laundry.)

PHOTOS First night in Italy for the Jersey Shore cast and they… ride a carousel?

Maybe it’s because the clubs don’t open until late in Florence, or it maybe it’s because there are no clubs in Florence, but whatever the reason the cast of Jersey Shore hit the streets for their first night out in Italy and wound up smushing some carousel horses!

PHOTOS Jersey Shore cast arrives in Florence, Italy

The cast of Jersey Shore can now officially be added to the long list of Italian invaders that includes the Byzantines, Franks, Visigoths and even the Allied forces of World War II. See pictures of the elite Guido and Guidette forces as they invade the Jewel of the Renaissance: Florence, Italy.

PHOTOS JWoww looking… impeccably exquisite?!?

Wh-wh-wh-what?!? Jersey Shore‘s Jenni “JWoww” Farley took to the streets of Manhattan today looking almost unrecognizable in a tastefully stylish outfit that could have been stolen right off the back of Audrey Hepburn!

Don’t get me wrong – the dress still has the JWoww spirit thanks to a chest-revealing neckline and a thick band of black lace-like leaves around the waist, but I think even Tim Gunn and Michael Kors would have to pause and nod their heads in approval of this makeover!
