Jersey Shore is really the best thing that’s happened to me in a long time. Whenever I’m all like, “I wish there were an interesting story to write about today,” the Shore delivers.
Up now: Snooki’s war with Domino’s Pizza. Hey, you guys, remember back in April when those Domino’s employees posted a video of themselves doing gross things to your pizza? (The video’s been removed from YouTube due to a copyright claim by Kristy Hammonds, one of the people doing gross things to the pizza in the video. That is actually fairly brilliant maneuvering. Hat tip, Kristy.) Domino’s is one of several sponsors who pulled their ads from MTV’s Jersey Shore earlier this year as a result of the backlash from the show’s characterization of Italian-Americans. (Other pulled sponsors: American Family Insurance, Dell and UNICO.)
Snooki, who is amazing, had some choice words about that: “Fuck you! If you don’t want to watch, don’t watch. Just shut the hell up! I’m serious … Fuck you!”
Now, from E!:
A rep for Domino’s says his first thought was to decline commenting to avoid giving Snooki extra publicity. But unlike Dell, he went ahead and gave us a lengthy comment anyway…
“Our first response was, ‘What a classy young lady—her parents must be so proud,'” the rep told us today. “There’s no need to get into a war with this young girl, because tick-tock, her fifteen minutes are almost up.”
First off: Ouch, E! Good luck the next time you need a quote from that PR firm.
Second: I hope Snooki is famous forever and ever. Or at least for long enough to be on Celebrity Rehab.
Third: Is Bump-It advertising on Jersey Shore yet? If not, they should be. Like, a lot. I want the show to open with the words “Jersey Shore, brought to you by the good folks at Bump-It.”
I could care less about either Domino’s Shitty Pizza and The Jersey Shore, but it does make me confused & amused that Domino’s seems to have no clue as to who their customer base is..
Um, Dominos.. the exact people watching TJS are your loyal customers! Who does Domino’s think they are fooling by pulling their ads? Dell is one thing, they have a very mixed CB, I mean almost everyone has a laptop or sometype of computer system, but Dominos.. hello, your customer base is not watching CNN, I assure you, they are watching trash TV. take care of the inner workings of your house before you throw stones.
Oh, you know “Snookin’ for Love” is totally gonna be happening somewhere down the line. My friends and I have been wondering the same thing about the Bumpits. One got them as a Christmas gift and we’re totally gonna have a Snooki Poof making party.
Hahah! Snookin’ for love!
She completely and utterly sicks me out. Everything about this orange little Oompa-Loompa troll is completely off-putting, including, but not limited to, everything that comes out of her mouth.
Have you even watched the show? She’s a sweetheart.
I think I just threw up a little bit. There is nothing, and I mean NOTHING, sweet about this disgusting whore!
Ha- I thought she looked like a Bridge Troll myself.
Domino’s should just come out with a Jersey Whore pizza option. Long course black pubic hairs optional.
oops, *coarse* of course.
haha. That was actually pretty funny.
I’m halfway surprised that Massengill hasn’t rushed in to claim a place as a new sponsor of the show.
omg i totally have a bump-it…you know, for when I need to whore out and make mah hair huge….oh who am I kidding I fucking love huge ghetto jersey hair.
this show needs to die a rotten death.
I KNOW THAT THEY WERE ALL DISGUSTING BIG HAIR TOO MUCH MAKEUP PIGS, BUT THIS PIECE OF SHIT IS A DOG A FUCKING UGLY DOG..ARE YOU SURE THAT’S NOT A MASK SHE IS WEARING? I HONESTLY CANT IMAGINE SOMEONE GIVING BIRTH TO THAT…THAT’S A FACE NOT EVEN A MOTHER COULD LOVE…I CANT LOOK AT IT FOR LONG..WHENEVER I SEE IT BY ACCIDENT I FEEL LIKE I AM THROWING UP IN MY MOUTH…
I really don’t get why so many people hate TJS. It isn’t any different than Real World, The Runs, Road Rules, Hookin for Love, or any of the other shit that MTV and VH1 put on. You know you all watch that shit, or your kids do or, at least you pass by it…slowly. Yes, it’s stupid. Yes, it validates everything we think about the disintegration of humanity and how our society is going down the crapper. How we know that the parents across the street are raising their little piece of shit ho-bags—I see it every morning getting on the school bus. WTF. But you know what…I’m tired….tired of fucking terrible news. A fucked up President who is doing on the job training—a fucked up Congress that doesn’t give a rats ass about the American people —ANY OF US—and a fucked up bunch of rag heads that want some fucking mullah/prophet to reappear out of a well and take over the world. So you know what, until real hell on earth reappears I’m going to watch some garbage and pretend I’m somewhere else….anywhere. Fuckin happy fuckin new year….fuck.
I have some choice words for everyone in hollywood, “FUCK REALITY TELEVISION! FUCK ANYONE WHO PRODUCES IT! AND FUCK ANYONE WHO IS A PART OF IT!” (Oh, and that includes this skank.)
I don’t think Snooks even needs a Bump-It, cause her banana claw clip thing does the trick. But if you’re not a guidette, Bump-Its are key part in attaining the “poof.” But I agree and hope her last 15 minutes are spent in a new commercial for them!
When is Snooki’s sex/tampon tape coming out? You know this bitch is just dying to let her inner Tila out.

Gosh, I hate it when people be “hatten.”
i am so, so, so glad that you share my love and enthusiasm for all that is jersey shore. i haven’t been this excited about reality tv since the first season of tila tequila. i get really happy whenever i see that you’ve written something about it.
and ohmygod, the bump-it thing. you are so right. talk about a target audience. but i don’t think snooki uses a bump it, she’s hardcore – her poof is 100% natural, if you call a full can of hairspray natural. i feel like i only started seeing bump it commercials after jersey shore began, but that’s probably just cause i was purposefully ignorant of that hair/life style before.
Snooki is so funny! I can stop laughing when i see her. I was visiting one of the best casinos in Vegas and I saw a girl that looked exactly like her!
