'The Situation' Barred From Plaza Hotel Gym

By PopEater Staff Posted Dec 20th 2010 07:40AM

Although Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino had been in talks to become the face of the Plaza Hotel's luxury gym, NY Post reports the 'Jersey Shore' star has been barred from the deal. According to reports, the hotel's executives don't think the reality TV star is right for its patrons.

Sorrentino met with Ross Franklin, CEO of RF Health Club Consulting, in October, but Franklin reportedly decided to proceed without the reality star.

"The Plaza is not working with The Situation on any projects, including the gym space," a rep for the hotel said.

Sorrentino's rep said the reality star plans to open a high-end gym elsewhere, where he will offer personal ab workouts.

"Mike had only one meeting with the owners of the gym property a couple of months ago to see if this is something he would be interested in. Mike decided that this was not the right location for a potential gym that he would be involved in. He has currently been entertaining offers from several other properties," his rep told the NY Post.

He's a moron, and he's YESTERDAY'S moron on top of that. Haven't we had enough of this creep?

By Jackson

I agree. The people and things we glamorize in this country today is nothing short of disgusting.

By Anne

A Moron and an ugly one to boot. Geez

Who'd want to waste their time and money going to the shore in Jersey when you know that there's crap like this all over the beach? First medical waste, now this! I'm not sure which is worse.

lol@ that photo

The only "news" here is that anyone would consider using anyone from that show as the face of anything that they wanted to promote. What's next, Jerry Springer guests as the face of the Dept. of Education?

That smirk on his face is not attractive.
It as if anyone can be called a 'star' now days.
As long as they act like no mannered punks.

By John

I've never watched the show, however, whenever I see a photo of this guy I can't help but feel that the poor fellow must be mentally challenged...

I agree with you except that in that photo he does not actually look mentally challenged, he looks mentally defeated.

LOL! Good one.

If you are foolish enought to hook up with this moron or his jersey shore buddies, you will definitely need to get a couple of shots for STDs.

Let's hope he's saving his money.
Good looks will only take him so far, like to the corner.
