Back To BlackSnooki: Evicted From Jersey Shore House!
Season 6 Jersey Shore is going to be totally different!
Not only is our fave little meatball knocked up and sober, she will not even being living in the Shore house!
Apparently, Snooki noticed the disease-infected, sometimes violent party-house is not the ideal place to grow a healthy child. (Who knew?)
We're guessing MTV's lawyers noticed that little fact as well.

HE IS 1 LUCKY DEVIL!!! IF EVERYONE WAS SO LUCKY!!!
he's an asshole
GRRRR I HATE HIM SO MUCHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!
THIS CLOSE TO LOSING IT?!??
HIS CAREER IS GONE LIKE THE WIND!
first!
first
first!
Extreme homophobia is a sign of repressed homosexuality. Why didn't you draw a dick to his mouth? Or give him Jizz?
He does deserve a second chance but if he screws it up again, he'll be finished. Like my nan always says…. Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me. or some shit like that lol
This is just ridiculous to me. There are millions of actors out there. Why give this one another chance?? And the fact that he tried to turn it all around and make it a race issue is sickening. I hate this idiot, and they should be finding the next big star, not giving this loser another chance.
Eminem calls people fags. People love him. Maybe Washington should hug Elton John and all will be well.
jack ass
he's a douchebag. And an unremorseful one at that. He always plays the victim. a-hole.
that asshole, shouldnt get shit!!
marc graboff is a fuckin looser
So much hate in this group…
I bet if he was white and said an anti-black slur, his ass would have been fired that second and Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson would have been all over it! BUT, he's black and said an anti-gay slur, so that makes it alright???? Disgusting!
this is our chance to show TPTB that what he did is not forgivable….. I'm sorry for everyone else connected with this show but I hope it'll be boycotted.
httcfdfdsafsf
he's not lucky, he's talented…and deserves another chance just like Paris - drunk, wreckless driver, porno star-Hilton gets.
that is one show I won't tune in then…..it was not the original comment that made me as crazy..but his arrogant, bully attitude post comment. This guy is a loser and deserves no second chance for me! Bad call nbc
he's so yesterday dumpster trash - this nbc show will go down the drain!
fuck him with kfed
He is charismatic and I enjoyed watching him on Grey's Anatomy. It was bloody grade school behavior on the part of EVERYBODY involved in that ridiculous tempest in a teapot.
I say "Good luck" to him. I'm going to check out his new show — I am not going to watch Grey's anymore though.
BTW: demographic w/f, 43 yr .
YEAH I WAS FIRST BUT I HAVE MORE 2 SAY. HOW ABOUT SHAME ON NBC!! WE KNOW ISAIAH IS A KISS ASS WHEN NEEDED BUT HE DIDNT FOOL GREYS ANATOMY BUT NBC WAS QUICK 2 PICK HIM UP!!!
Everyone deserves a second chance and sometimes even a thrid. We are human and we all make mistakes. Even all of you whom seem to think that you are perfect. I'm sure many of you do not feel that way with reference to Mel Gibson. Give me a break. It's not right to be so unforgiving.
i agree with the previous post by a woman…if he were white with a black slur…he would have been crucified……we should not forgive this asshole…..
HEY Stupid NBC-You came thisclose to having a hit with Bionic Woman, but now with the bigot on the show, I will never watch a show I was looking forward to watching.
I hope he doesn't start being so full of himself again. He's lucky he was given a second chance. Most new shows don't make it so he better stay humble.
I will not watch a show with this guy in it. The race card bs was the end for me.
What an asshole. No talent.

Isaiah Washington deserves a second chance. He is a great actor, and you would know that if you ever watched him act. Those people who call him names and say stupid stuff, and have never seen one episode of Grey's need to shut up, and get a LIFE!
I am going to look forward to watching him in Bionic Woman! Yeah!
If he was truly sorry he wouldn't have made an ass out of himself at the Golden Globes. Forgiveness was doled out the first time, zero tolerance the second time. I know I speak for many a queen that we were actually looking forward to the Bionic Woman since, like Wonder Woman, we queens love the original show. Now NBC has basically told a potentially large niche fan base to go screw themselves - Bionic Woman will be cancelled by the 3rd week of October, if it makes it that long. How stupid can they be- especially when their ratings are in the toilet.
That shitty shitty Grey's is a show for a bunch of fuggin pussies. I think every single person on that show sucks fuggin ballz man.
And who the hell is pretending a god damn re-make of the craptastic Bionic Fucktard will be a god damn hit anyway?
Who the hell are these morons that stick up for celebs on this site? You think they give a shit about you?
LOSERS!
Wha Wha Wha Dont hurt celebutards feelings cause they are on a show i watched once blah blah blah
He already had a second chance, he blew it at the golden globes. NBC is essentially saying fuck you to gay discrimination. And what a shame Bionic Woman was going to be the next heroes.
I was so excited about Bionic woman. I went to the NBC website and watched all the clips. I sent the clips to all the peopl I knew and I was a one-woman promotional vehicle for the show.
Now.
I will NEVER EVER EVER watch that piece of shit. Ever.
Perez, how are his homophobic comments any different from the misogynistic ones you aim at women on your website everyday?
Isiah Washington will have children that are gay. Karma is a bitch blackie.
all right, now i realize this is your blog and everything and normally i'm a huge fan, but can we please lay off of this man? yeah he fucked up, yeah he's a huge prick, but seriously! i think he's becoming about as yawn worthy as you seem to think hugh grant's possible proposal is
HA HA! Imus got his job back…why shouldn't he!!
Lol, he looks like the onedump.com guy
Hooray for the new show. IW is a very talented actor and I'm sure that this new show will be a success. I won't be tuning in to Grey's Anatomy again. Too much immature crap going on there. Besides–very boring!!!
I still live under a rock I know he said something about gays what was it and really who cares he still getting paid right
I HOPE HE GETS THE SHIT BEAT OUT OF HIM. FUCKING BLACK GHETTO ASS PIECE OF SHIT.
If we gay guys truly care about how the media portrays us, than the network that found success with Wil & Grace and it's sister channel which brought us Project Runway and Queer Eye should be boycotted with a vengenance. First they pander to us in order to get "hip" buzz and ratings and then they slap us in the face. There are so many outstanding black actors out there and they chose that "bottom feeding" piece of "gutter trash". I am disgusted beyond words and every other homosexual should be as well. Send a message people!
Can I get a … WHOOOOOO CARES
I have never watched Greys but I did follow the whole "scandal" & I think it could have been settled, he move on & adventually it would have been dropped. But when he played the race card that added gas to a flame. He should have just shut up & let it go, admit he was wrong & hope it gets dropped. He showed his ignorance & your right if it was black & white Jackson & Sharpton would have been like flies on shit!!
I hope many of you have gone on the NBC web site and told them that you will be boycotting the show. Also let them know we will be boycotting anyone who buys ads for the show and that you will not buy any of their products. The only way NBC or the sponcers will understand that we will not be treated with hate is by our dollars. $$$$$$$$$
We must boycot this show and let them know why we are doing this. If a white actor attacked Jews or Blacks would they be giving him another show so quickly? Let NBC know that this is unacceptable to us. We will continue to be victims unless we make a stand. BOYCOT THIS SHOW AND THEIR SPONCERS. Money and profit is the only thing NBC knows.
I'm sure he will learn to watch his words, because you never know when someone is going to pony ride you to a huge payday !
Preze there is no one that calls people names more than your sad ass and these fools and you keep talking about the man at the end of teh day KARMA is a bitch abnd you will reep what you so …You will be the next one to be trash in the media that you love so much …You wait and see HO!
Isiah should never be allowed to work as an actor again. Since NBC seems to think that a little diversity might help its horrible ratings, I have just one thing to say - remember what happened to UPN. Bionic Woman - dead on arrival - if only we could say the same for Isiah - a disgrace to African Americans everywhere.
I'm gay and although his remark wasn't for me, it hit me to the core. The one thing that bothers me most however was his used of racism as the reason he got whacked of.
I don't care if he gets a second chance. For me, he's a nameless twat with so ugly face.
nbc is getting free publicity by hiring him. Look how we are all talking about them now. If they had hired another actor that did not have a controvery would we even be talking about the Bionic Woman show and NBC right now? They may have made a smart short term choice, but his difficult behavior will be back to bite NBC in the butt this time. I for one will not watch him on anything.
He showed his true colors in the way he handled himself after he got fired. We shall see how long it takes for him to get fired again…not for being homophobic, but for just being an asshole.
He was given an NACCP Image award for this year. What were they thinking???
I love Isaiah Washington DC capital of USA. I want to see him F*ck Bionic Woman in her AS* literately
HA HA! Imus got his job back…why shouldn’t he!!
BMan U sound gay ?
Are U?
He might be interested. When so called ST8 people are preocciped with homosexuals it's because they are afraid of themselves. Inner conflit …hmmm
F**k U Angie! U r xcatly what the problem is. Equating race & sexual preference is BS, BIG TIME!!! He didnt hurt white people but all people u d**wad! He messed up…paid in full..now back da f**k up!! Now get over urselves u self effacing defecating bunch of morons!!!!
FIRE ISAIAH FOREVER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Christ people! He JUST called someone a name!!! People just shouldn't have such thin skins. Sure, it's wrong, everyone knows that, but GET OVER IT!!! If he continues to do it, that's another story. I will definitely be watching and he's definitely talented. If I didn't watch people I didn't like personally in Hollywood I'd just start reading!

Isaiah Washington in 3 months: “I did not call the bionic woman a whore… it was just a misunderstanding”
karma sucks, doenst’t it issy w.? enjoy your life on the D list… jerk.
he should be the "star" in a new TV show, with Shannen Doherty and Michael Richards.
You people disgust me. Firstly, I love how racism doesn't exist anymore in the minds of many of you. The reality is that racism exists just as much as homophobia does. In the case of Washington, the lion's share of you have no clue as to what actually took place on that set, and your reactions are based primarily on BIASED commentary. There is no objectivity here. You are set to hate someone based on the commentary of someone with an agenda. Here's some more truth for you: Washington is only signed for five episodes, in other words, he's simply a part of a single story arc. Now I know that it is easier and far more comfortable for some of you to wallow in ignorance in order to settle on a skewed point of view, but whether or not you like it, Washington has as much right to earn a living as you do to read the putrid screed of a media gadfly who delights in taking the piss out of people he has an inferiority complex with. Ultimately, your blindness and aversion to objectivity will be your collective undoing…or you can just choose to remain ignorant, which is why the world hates our media enslaved culture now.
What he may be thinking…
"I can't be around gay men because I may get tempted to have sex with them."

It's Official. NBC SUPPORTS HATRED AGAINSTGAYS. Giving a HOMOPHOBE a SECOND CHANCE, oh please WTF!. MARC GRABOFF screams homo hater apologist!
He was given an image award …. How this year of all years . He's been around over a decade.
This show would have had a HUGE gay following.
NOT ANY MORE.
No wonder NBC is hurting. FOOLS!
Dear NBC,
I had no interest on watching BIONIC WOMAN but now that Isaiah is on,I will! He is one of the greats of the 21st century,a god among men.
FUCK bottom feeders like Perez Hilton,they mean NOTHING.
Thank you-A Fan (:
WHO CARES that he called that little guy a fag?! We boys have been calling each other that for years! It's not like he called him a " N I double G A" or anything! GET OVER IT!
I love Isaiah! He made a mistake, but that doesn't take away from his talent.
He was one of the BEST characters on Grey's and I don't know how Im gonna like the show now.
Additionally, I have come to find that there is more loathing and hatred in gay communities, especially in the actions of those like gadfly Mario, who feels it's necessary to out every personality he either knows or feels is gay. The difference between being gay and being black is not that gay people choose to be gay, because that is untrue, but that gay people can CHOOSE TO BE PUBLIC OR PRIVATE about their preferences. Flaming queens such as Mario don't seem to understand that many gays, especially those in media-based positions don't feel the need to be defined by their personal preferences. Isaiah Washington has to be Black 24/7/365. A gay man, or woman, be they black, white, hispanic, asian, jew or gentile can choose whether to be public or private about their homosexuality based on their comfort level.
Now Don Imus lost his job for making a stupid comment, no one I know even listened to his radio show. But Isaiah Washington, who was on one of America's most watched shows gets chance after chance after chance. Our society needs to treat all prejudice the same. Weither it's racial slurs or homophobic bullsh*t that someone speaks.
i effing hate him!!!!
Who cares……….
I agree with comment #78. Thank you.
He should be cast in NOAH'S ARK - that would teach his n**** ass a lesson.
if he was a white man and said ho would he get a second chance?
So NBC must hired IMUS, he also deserve a second chance!!! but I bet NBC will not give that chance to him why? Because Imus is white.
We have a virus in this country and is called "White guilt" . We think we should punish the whites and forgive the blacks. And if you think I'm wrong, ask Rev. Al Sharpton. He made a career trashing white people and defending every black scum on this earth.
Washington is a mediocre actor, a homophobic, a winny asshole who used the race card to inspire pity. Shame of him and shame on NBC for hiring this idiot.
I will not be watching him, that's for sure.
he's not an asshole. he expresses what he feels. its just a shame he did in front of the wrong crowd. Peekamo has a write up on these types of things.
Yuck. I was actually looking forward to Bionic Woman, but hell if I'll be tuning in now. I refuse to lend support to the homophobic windbag. Guess I'll be watching Private Practice at that time instead.
NBC…thanks in advance for ruining the Bionic Woman for me. I can't look at him without hearing him say the "f" word. Create a show for him and Michael Richards… The Hateful Odd Couple!

If he was white he would have gotten nothing. So, some liberal asshole television "executive" is giving him another chance, he's a loser too.
Hey, the only reason he "made" himself an ass at the Globes was because they only showed that part. The truth is off camera they were asked about the incident while Shondra (is that her name?) was at the mike and he stupidly tried to defend himself. Unfortunately that is all we saw. Be careful how you judge when you don't know the whole story
Oh and Imus has been rehired so there's the second chance some of you were looking for.
It's funny how there are so many hipocrites on here, calling him names and then generalizing it to a whole race. Shame on all of you who feel it's okay to call him names but then get mad at the word he used THAT WAS NOT AGAINST TR KNIGHT. No one knew about TR's sexual preference and no one would have known if he and KH wouldn't have come out on the defensive. He was not outed. That was an argument he was having off camera with someone else. word in the same sentence and things got misrepresented. Get over it.
As far as BW not being a gay fan base, who cares, I'm sure there are people of different ethnicities, genders and sexual preference that will watch the show. Get off your high horses. We all mess up big time more than once in our life.
i cannot BELIEVE nbc hired that hate monger. what bastards. kiss bionic woman goodbye.
Enough of this shit! Boo hoo, you got fired. That's what you get for making homophobic comments, jackass.
Second chances are given to remorseful offenders. Isaiah is far from it! Bionic Woman was something I was looking forward to, and now, just thinking I'll be watching it leaves a bad taste in my mouth! People should just email NBC to drop Isaiah off this show. I did.
I cannot wait for BIONIC WOMAN and Isaiah Washington is an incredible actor. I wish him the best!
AGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! HE SAID HE WAS SORRY!!!!! WE have all said stupid things from time to time. Dont tell me that all of you are ANGELS and NEVER HURT anyone. Perez SHOULD NOT TAlk. HE SAYS MEAN THINGS ALL of the time . MAYBE he hasn't hurt a particular demo, but he has hurt a lot of people.
Ahh the Homosexual agenda once again over reacts and makes itself look stupid once again.
This Book:
After the Ball: How America Will Conquer its Fear and Hatred of Gays in the 1990's, by Marshall Kirk and Hunter Madsen.
Is the homosexual agenda's blueprint.
In their book Kirk and Madsen urged that gay activists adopt the very strategies that helped change the political face of the largest nation on earth. The authors knew the techniques had worked in China. All they needed was enough media-and enough money-to put them to work in the United States. And they did. These activists got the media and the money to radicalize America-by processes known as desensitization, jamming and conversion.
They would desensitize the public by selling the notion that gays were "just like everyone else." This would make the engine of prejudice run out of steam, i.e., lull straights into an attitude of indifference.
They would jam the public by shaming them into a kind of guilt at their own "bigotry." Kirk and Madsen wrote:
All normal persons feel shame when they perceive that they are not thinking, feeling, or acting like one of the pack….The trick is to get the bigot into the position of feeling a conflicting twinge of shame…when his homohatred surfaces. Thus, propagandistic advertisement can depict homophobic and homohating bigots as crude loudmouths….It can show them being criticized, hated, shunned. It can depict gays experiencing horrific suffering as the direct result of homohatred-suffering of which even most bigots would be ashamed to be the cause.
Sound Familiar????
How about FUCK YOURSLEVES? Loving hairy asshole is NOT normal, sorry to break the news to you. Nor is it a CONDITION OF BIRTH another FANTASTIC LIE perpetuated by who else……gays.
This information is WELL Documented please DO NOT believe there is "No Gay Agenda".
Max Sawdust
IF YOU are offended, DONT WATCH THE BIONIC WOMAN episodes with Isaiah. Ratings, or lack thereof, get network executives' attention faster than anything else.
Please put this in perspective, the reality is that he should not be prevented from making a living because of a stupid comment that he regrets saying. We've all said things that we regret. Forget it and move on. Need I remind ALL of you about glass houses and stones????
I find it disappointing that Mr. Washington is forgiven by "the industry", and those that think all this is racist because he is black.
Has anyone actually forgiven Michael Richards? How about Don Imus? Mel Gibson?
Does it depend on the color of your skin whether you should be forgiven or not? Does it depend on the color of your skin what words you can use? Is the 'N' word, 'nappy ho's', being anti-semitic worse than spewing the 'F' word? I tire of people calling racism when it has nothing to do with racism. Has anyone ever read the story about the boy who called wolf? I know Sharpton and Jackson haven't.
He used the 'F' word twice, once on set, and the other time denying he said it at all - in front of the press. Finally, he puts the blame on everyone else. The man deserves no respect, no matter what color his skin is!
Go Isaiah! I will be watching his new show and NOT watching Grey's anymore. T.R. Knight can kiss my ass.

I like him! I say kick George off, he is such a boring little man!
Everyone deserves a second chance, even th elikes of you.
Mr. Washington was dead wrong for fighting with his co-stars and using a homophobic slur more than once but I hate the fact YOU PEOPLE are forever looking for any opportunity to hang a ******. I doubt any of you bitches excluding the owner of this blog is truly concerned with sexual identity/gender equity issues.
so fuck you and fuck grey's anatomy and fuck abc and fuck tr knight and fuck katherine hiegl and fuck that pissy bitch ass mother fucker who probably instigated the whole shit PATRICK DEMSEY.
102, you weren't paying attention to recent events related to these controversies.
Or is it you are too busy looking for an opportunity to lynch a negro?
Paul Mooney, one of the most outspoken black comedians working in the entertainment field, who knows Micheal Richards ( personally) has acknowledged Michael Richards was "having a moment" when he made those outrageous comments onstage after being heckled and he is not necessarily an evil, racist person as you are.
Let us FOCUS on the issue being discussed and not make inane comparisons, shall we?
