'Jersey Shore' Star to Ditch the Nickname?

Could this be the last we hear of Snooki? Maybe, according to 'Jersey Shore' star
Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi.
Since rising to fame -- or, to some, infamy -- Polizzi's real name has fallen to the wayside to make room for her catchy moniker, which has become synonymous with the MTV hit reality show.
But is she getting tired the nickname?
"I miss my real name. I miss people calling me Nicole," she told the
AP.
Polizzi, 23, is making the press rounds this month promoting her first book,
'A Shore Thing,' which she co-wrote with a ghostwriter. The book chronicles two girls' adventures during a summer at the Jersey Shore.
Sounds familiar, but maybe it's just us.
On top of her book tour, Polizzi is enjoying the record-setting ratings of MTV's 'Jersey Shore,' which brought in 8.45 million viewers with its third season premiere on Jan. 6, according to the AP.
When asked if there's a possibility of a Snooki spinoff show, a deal similar to cast member
Paul "DJ Pauly D" DelVecchio's reported new show, Polizzi said it's certainly a possibility.
"Of course, if the opportunity is given to me, I'm gonna run with it," she said. However, there are no current plans in the works.

She is the strangest looking girl I've ever seen. She looks
like an ewok. Sorry, it's too late to bag the name "Snookie".

She looks like Roseanne Barr from 20 yrs ago.
"She looks like Roseanne Barr from 20 yrs ago". Maybe, but with a Spainish flair!
She should drop out of TV too. I can't believe young girls want to look and act like her - it's sad. If this is another idol of our kids of today, can you imagine what this world is going to be like in 30, 40, 50 years. SCARY

Well, yeah they are, on Fat people that are Short!
I find her distasteful as well, but outrage sells. If she didn't have as many folks posting that they hate her (not posting about her at ALL), maybe she'd go away. But, you cannot tell folks who to like...PEACE.

You're an idiot
Sad to say, like herpes, once you think she might have gone away, it's back with a vengeance! But seriously folks, this chick is as hot as a frozen dog turd stuck to the cement.

@bublerocks: Snooki doesn't know how to read and write.... that's what the GhostWriter is for.... to put her inane ramblings into some kind of order. Am I the only one on this planet that has never seen this show? Or any of the other reality shows?
