Well, well, well, look who isn't actually Italian. Snooki, alias Nicole Polizzi, aka "The Ultimate Guidette," is actually -- wait for it -- Chilean, her cast-mate Jenni "J-WOWW" Farley revealed during a visit to FOX's 'The Strategy Room' on Tuesday.
"So what does she mean when she says Guidette?" asked the semi-incredulous FOX anchor, Jill Dobson.
J-WOWW's response? "That's a stereotype that people misconstrued with Italians. It's a lifestyle. Like, the scene that we're in. It's not like Italian."
J-WOWW is open about her lack of Italian heritage; she's Spanish and Irish by descent. Snooki is adopted by an Italian family, hence her surname. J-WOWW also revealed that "Ron's not full Italian either," referring to Ronnie Magro.
This news comes six weeks after the New Jersey Italian American Legislative Caucus criticized 'Jersey Shore' for its promotion of derogatory ethnic stereotypes (See: Profuse and unapologetic usage of the term "Guido"), calling it "wildly offensive."
Italian-American organization UNICO attacked Snooki in particular, calling her "an embarrassment to Italian Americans" and "an embarrassment to the entire human race."
Snooki responded to the criticism in typical feisty fashion, saying "F**k you! If you don't want to watch, don't watch. Just shut the hell up! I'm serious ... F**k you!"
Watch the original interview below. J-WOWW drops the Snooki-bombshell at 15:40.
What the hell is wrong with this site??? What's up PopEater/ AOL????
I've lost count of how many times I've tried to post something yet only to get a message saying.... my post didn't go through and that there's an email waiting for me to click on so it can HOWEVER..... 1. I've given you the right email addy and password so I shouldn't have gotten this to begin with and 2. There is NO email from you in my inbox, not even in my spam folder!!!
So again, WHAT THE HELL IS UP???? I know I'm not alone, I know this has happened to many others because I've seen them post the same question!! I've even gone as far as to write you to ask what the problem is and if you can fix it but yet, still no resolve!! What do you guys think? Do you think we enjoy WASTING our time writing a post only to have it NOT go through???? So for the last time.... WILL YOU PLEASE FIX THIS PROBLEM????????? Really, how hard can it be to actually DO???!!!!! UGHHHHH Peace OUT
P.S. how much you wanna bet this one WILL go through???? *rolling eyes*
Being 100% Italian, I am so glad Snookie is Chilean. Can this show please go away? They are all idiots, who act like they got hit in the head too many times. I find them more offensive than The Sopranos!
WE ARE IN DESPARATE NEED OF THE OLD VARIETY SHOWS...ED SULLIVAN,CAROL BURNETT,SONNY AND CHER ,THE HUDSON BROTHERS,SMOTHERS BROTHERS,AND THE LIST GOES ON. IT WAS PURE ENTERTAINMENT ,NONE OF THIS BULLSHIIT CRAP T.V. THAT THE NEWER GENERATIONS SEEM TO BE ABSORBED WITH, IN FACT A FEW YEARS AGO ELLEN DEGENERES MADE AN ATTEMPT AT IT ,ALBEIT,A HUMBLE TRY ,BUT I GUESS, PEOPLE IN GENERAL ARE NOT READY FOR SOME WHOLESOME T.V. AMUSEMENT.....WHAT A WORLD
I haven't watched the show but have seen some of them on other shows. It seems like they are just stupid kids and the but of jokes. but they are also getting their 15 minutes and running away with a bunch of money. Being from Jersey myself the worst part is that all but one of them arent even from New Jersey LOL
The Jersey Shore is no more an entertaining show than an autopsy! I can't imagine what MTV was thinking when they put this show together! Watching young women acting in this manner is an insult to women EVERYWHERE! Hey MTV, do us a favor and canel this abomination and get back to what you use to do best, MUSIC!!!!!!
The thought of Snooki naked is horrid. Who would want to see that ugly little thing naked other than a drunk guy from a club..oh, that's right, she COULDN'T score...lol She should join weight watcher first. YUK!
Speaking of dangerous "HUMANNOIDS"? These characters with their so called made up names ending in a vowel, are a true disgrace to the Italian people. Sneaks, lies, and living within a "legend in their own mind" describe them the best.
Italian, Chilean, polka dotted, purple what difference does it make? Her heritage has nothing to do with the fact that she's still trash. The whole cast is nothing more than a big collection of trash. Way to go MTV on yet again bringing together another group of human garbage that will contribute nothing useful to our society. Kudos to you!!
The broads on Jersey shore are a disgrace to all woman. No way would I tolerate my daughter waltzing around like hookers. The minute I got wind of it, we'd be addressing it as a family matter. All of thier parent should be ashamed of those idiots. Sammie is no sweetheart, thinks she looks hot in short shorts that she is clearly too fat for, J-woww looks like a 20lb sausage stuffed in a 10lb bag, and snookie is just plain out there. The dudes are no better.
No one is my italian family remotely acts or dresses like any of these idiots. TRASH is how I see them. Furthermore living in a very italian neighborhood myself, I can assure you that no one acts like this without being called out as a major jamook.
I have an full blooded Italian step -Father who raised me; I donot claim to be Italian or know and understand or somehow affiliated to all Italian's, that's just ridiculous. Snooky and all the rest of the cast member's of this program are so low class and trashy they are an embarrasment to ANY race they claim to belong to. The skankiest skank's I've EVER seen on any show. Disturbing and gross!

Yes Snooki is a disgrace to Italian-Americans (God I hate hyphenated ethnic distinctions), and the show itself is a disgrace to humanity.
