Seriously? Jersey Shore‘s Snooki, An Author Now, Insists You Call Her Nicole

» 21 comments

Ah, reality “stars.” We build them up, and then we tear them down. Can we get the tear-down started for Snooki now? Please?

As you may have heard–and quite possibly sighed over the news–Nicole Polizzi has added to her status as a star of television’s Jersey Shore by becoming a published author. The book, A Shore Thing, has apparently gone directly to her head.

In an interview with the New York Daily News, Snooki–who tells the News given her status as an author and all, she’d really rather be called Nicole from here on–believes she’s going to be taken seriously for her writing:

“I’m very happy that a lot of people want to read it, and that people who have read it are impressed,” says Polizzi, 24. “The people who aren’t going to read it, the negative people, I’m sure if they DID read it, they’d think it was awesome.”

Let me make it absolutely clear, I have not read the book–a novel, no less–which features characters named “Giovanna Spumanti” and her cousin, “Isabella Rizzoli.” The book begins (I’m big on first lines) like this:

“Life was hard. But a pouf? That should be easy.”

So, Nicole, just put me down as a hater. I can’t bring myself to read any more.

    The only reason the “authors” write articles about Palin is because of the traffic it produces. More traffic means more advertiser money and more money in Dan Abrams pocket. They obviously don’t like, don’t really care for her either, but it’s about the money. And to be honest, it doesn’t bother me. Danny Boy Abrams has a right to make some cash so good on him.

    Why is Sarah not included?
    By the way I noticed your phoniness is showing up again. What happened to the enterprenuership that America was based on? she’s doing her stuff making money, I thought that’s the type of America you want. But it’s not type of person, so you bash her.

    If I’ve got to hear from this person (still don’t know why that is), couldn’t there at least be ONE redeeming value? Blech.

    At what point did encouraging or supporting entrepreneurship mean that we have to support or “like” ever business? I support the small companies that are making interesting new soda flavors… but I personally don’t drink soda. Just because I support them, doesn’t mean I have to like it. Duh.

    None of them AUTHORS. A ghost writer does not an author make.

    “Ah, reality “stars.” We build them up, and then we tear them down.”

    I’ve been saying that about Obama for years now. I’m wondering when people are going to finally wake up and tire of his act. I sure hope it’s not during his second term like it was for Bush.

    Did you not see the multiple periods at the end of my statement? Such items insinuate that the list goes on.

    Says the Howard Stern fan… who is no longer allowed to comment on that site.

  • bealzebubba

    well, she dropped a testicle in NJ….I guess that qualifies her to be a writer.

  • esd2000

    If Sarah can be an “author” so can Snooki. You go girl.
