Snooki Gets Bashed For Wanting The World To Be Tanner
Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi is pissing people off way beyond the reaches of the Jersey shore. A member of the Parents Television Council is going on the attack after Snooki's recent appearance on The Jay Leno Show. Miz Snooki said her highest aspiration in life was to "change the world" by having tanning beds installed in everyone's home. Marybeth Hicks, of the Council, is not pleased.
What? You don't love skin cancer?!
Marybeth considers the show "glorifying" behavior that is "silly" and "dangerous" and this latest stunt by the big-haired, orange guidette has put her over the edge. She says:
"It's disconcerting that [she] could have any sort of influence or be a role model … or advocate something like tanning beds that could cause cancer… This [show, 'Jersey Shore'] is a great example of sheer exploitation for the purpose of chasing ratings."
Well…YEAH! What's your point?!
That's all any television program is, really.
Hate on Snooks all you want, but the bitch is smart in one respect - she going to milk these 15 minutes for all they are worth!

Manslaughter!
Artie Released!
She looks like a whore.
yeah, well when Snookie gets her fair share of skin cancer she'll sing a whole different song….what a moron this girl is!!
What a disgusting hog.
I FRICKEN love snooki
I say we all get tanning beds too,
most of us need it!
She said it jokingly.
In my opinion children under the age of 17 should need parental permission to use tanning beds anyway. Does she think many kids are going to look at Snookie and desire her look?
No mention that many members of the cast smoke (though footage is limited) just like many members of Real World casts do/did. No mention of the fights that have broken out.
These organizations complaining are just looking for press themselves and are only making the show more popular.
I love Mike/The Situation and Pauly D's comments on last night's show about how to get ready for any evening out. GTL-GYM, Tanning, and Laundry.
MARIO ARE YOUR AS BRAINLESS AS THIS MORON FOR PROMOTING HER.
I laughed my ass off during the "on next weeks episode" clip where Snookie asks a cast-mate at a restaurant table to pass her a roll and Mike responds "I think you already have a couple".
Actually it might work. By having some hideous orange oompa loomba ridden with STDs with bad hair, people might actually not go tanning for fear of looking like that skank.
oh my gosh haha i thought i was like the only Mary Beth out there….weird.
"This [show, 'Jersey Shore'] is a great example of sheer exploitation for the purpose of chasing ratings."
no shiz sherlock
ever hear of a little concept called reality television?
looks horrible…seriously, over-tanning is sooo the 90's. Hope your ready to look 50 by the time your 30!
where is her upper lip?
You have my selfportrait avatar, so lose that fucking palm tree or there's gonna be hell to pay!
I love Snooki. She's just my height.
Drinking…doing drugs…random sex are all "safe" but it's the tanning that's the problem.
Skin cancer?? Please. The broad gets KO'd in a bar and the outcry is about skin cancer. People need to get their head examined.
I don't understand how anyone finds the whole "orange" look acctractive anyways. Sorry, but if some dumb shit came up to me looking like an Oompa loompa, I'd laugh. Snooki is not attractive, smart, or talented. She will most likely end up the next Tila Tequila. She disgusts me.
It's weird that she thinks she looks good…..poor thing.
It's funny how Skin Cancer is about as dangerous drowning by poland springs bottle but because it's a "cancer" it's something serious…it's not.
"Hate on Snooks all you want, but the bitch is smart in one respect - she going to milk these 15 minutes for all they are worth!"
Are you serious Perez? My god what a daft guy you can be.
Well PORKY IF YOU would STFU she would go away……
Is this the type of LOSER you consider celebrity than you should be fired…..
Come on now, it's true that Snickers may not be particularly smart, attractive or talented, but she sure as hell is entertaining. How can you not love someone who says she can't eat because she's "handicapped" from getting smoked in the grill?
All of the groups who are outraged over the silly Jersey Shore show are doing nothing but giving the show more credibility when they publically condemn it. Had they just let it slide by like all of the other dumb reality shows it would have never been this popular. You don’t see the Love of Ray J chicks on the Jay Leno show…I’m not quite sure when everyone decided that reality shows should be held to some moral standard. Hello….the basic reason they are so popular is because of how ridiculous and over the top the people are. Kids aren’t watching Jersey Shore and running out to tanning beds and calling themselves guidettes…..until you tell them it’s horrible for them to do it, then its fun and a great idea! Will adults never learn?!
Yep. She's going to say all kinds of outrageous things to keep her name in the media.
Nothing new about that .. extending the undeserved fame as long as she can.
Nostradamus # 10:
The Jersey Shore TV show has very little to do with reality.
For the love of God, if you are stupid enough to take ANY advice from Snooki or if she is your role model you have much bigger problems. Who aspires to look like Snooki?
she should be locked in a tanning bed until the flesh burns from her body.
I love how companies think we are all mindless drones! Yes we watch the show but don't want to be anything like any of them!!!
Isn't every show an "exploitation for the purpose of chasing ratings"? I don't see why everyone is making such a fuss about the Jersey Shore. Television has had mindless and stupid shows on for years. All of these organizations who are complaining about the Jersey shore are just making the show and its cast that much more famous. Just ignore them and eventually they will fade into obscurity just like every other mindless and stupid show.
I WANNA GET A TAN
ummm… weren't you just telling Ahley Simpson to go to the tanning bed a couple of weeks ago. FUCK YOU.
MTV made a brilliant decision to air Jersey Shore… the people they chose (snookie and the rest) are all famewhores who are AWESOME at getting media attention… AND the people who keep speaking out against the show are bringing so much more publicity to the show than it would have on it's own.
I don't watch the show, but I'm not against it at all… and I think that Snooki and the rest of the cast are a lot smarter than they appear… MTV knows stupid sells, so they were probably cast to act like bimbos and makes jackas*es out of themselves. They're obviously paid actors and the people against the show are just feeding into it.
And you, of course, will help her even though 90% of the population was sick of her in the first 5 seconds of said "fame".
I love Snooki leave her alone. Lets admit everyone does look better with a lil glow. Besides that her comments make me crack up! Keep them coming Snook
Re: zach swan –
Aww Zach, you're usually on point. Not being able to chew food comfortably after getting jacked in the jaw isn't abnormal or funny.
What is funny is she apparently hasn't learned a lesson, she continues to talk shit with her loud, obnoxious mouth. This is sort of thing is bound to happen again to this lil shit starter. I guarantee we will see her in the future on one of these sites, non-Jersey Shore related, as victim in another conflict.
Blech.
This chick is so ug-leeeeee. Does she think having orange skin makes her look better ? ! Truly brain-dead !
UGH, that over tanned skank needs to have the top of her tanning shut and locked on her. She's an embarrassment to humanity. Her parents must be so proud of the trashy, fugly, brain dead slut they raised.
at least she isn't pretending to give a crap about world issues like Paris Hilton.
The masses need to quit feeding this dumb damaged girl.
People need to lighten up.
i love this tanning bed debate,there is no real and correct evidence that tanning beds cause cancer.i could go in to detail and go on and on but really dont have the energy but for every argument to say it does i can show you one that contradicts it.yes with medical back up and research and all that shit that the opposition will throw at me. anyway just saying.
Man, that is one UGLY dude!! And a real genius.
Re: Spindoc – I love that you made that observation. My thoughts exactly.
Re: Nostradamus – Fair point. I was actually humoured by her use of the word "handicapped" (actually, I think she said "disabled") to describe her status rather than the fact that she was actually suffering. I don't wish that on anyone (except perhaps Mario.) Bygones.
TANS ARE EXTREMELY overrated here in L.A. (and apparently in Jersey!) and it's very dumb to even mention a tan and "save the world" in the same sentence. Look at Dita Von Teese. I have met her three times in the last 4 years and she is extremely beautiful and is about as far away from a tan than is humanly possible. And well…sorry to be mean, but Snookie looks HORRIBLE. A mess personafied.
Re: zach swan –
Ah, not being able to chew food properly is the least of her 'handicaps' gotcha
What do you expect from someone that is gutter trash glitter like herself. That show is trash for trash.
Re: LovelyLayla –
Or with Tila trash Tequila
I love Snooki and I love tanning beds! And I ABSOLUTELY LoooVVvvEEeeeEEe Jersey Shore!
SOMEONE pleeeeeeeeeeeease punch that bitch again.. ANYONE.. Pleeeeeeeeeeeeease!
Re: engfant –
Really? Tell that to my best friend who is going to be in and out of the hospital for the next 6 months undergoing chemo and radiation for skin cancer. Skin cancer is deadly, and people need to know that.
Re: Nonbreeder – tans are extremely overrated in the usa period. i went to europe for a year and only saw sunless tanning ads in a couple of magazines. the rest couldnt care less and waited for summer patiently
Don't tell me you actually like this trampy trailer trash.
I'm sure she was joking, but honestly, I'm tired of hearing about her & that stupid Show Jersey Shore. I can't believe they get so much publicity, its ridiculous.
THIS GIRL IS A FREAKING MORON!! WHY DO PEOPLE WATCH THIS SHIT??
Someone should really go out and and beat the shit out of the Jersey Shore assholes, I mean really I can't believe people are actually watching this garbage. The only part of the show I have seen is the clip on youtube of Snookie getting knocked out….All reality shows should be banned, this one first!
I wonder who's the bigger fame seeker- Snooki or the PCT, who chooses to nit pick at a comment made as a joke and turn it into a bigger issue. Seriously, they are behaving as if this girl poses a threat to people's way of thinking. This is SNOOKI, not David Koresh, for God's sake! She knows she's the breakout star of the show, so she's playing the role of the dumb guidette to the maximum.Taco Bell, the PTC…they are all falling for her strategy. This girl knows how to turn her 15 minutes into hours. I wouldn't be surprised if she's given her own show.
I like when they call her Snickers. Do you like it when they call her Snickers?
Re: engfant – wow you are an idiot!!!saying skin cancer isnt dangerous, you need to get your head checked! My mom died almost 3 yrs ago due to melanoma skin cancer after undergoing every single treatment possible and having numerous surgeries. Your a fucking tool.
she was making a joke!! everyone needs to chillll
It's a sad world we live in that people like this ( no talent, no education, or at least speaks as though she hasn't had one) are "popular" enough to appear on red carpets and talk shows…
Its just Snookies opinion!! Its not like shes a politican or changing laws….shes just giving her opinion. Ive only watched the show twice but they are clearly the typical Philly/Jersey kinda girls/guys!! That doesn't mean shes a whore…thats what alot of the girls on the east coast look like (esp from that area).
ey, i think she's cute.
wear sunblock! do not tan!
I would LOVE to see how she looks pale.
It's funny how these chicks all talk about how important it is for them to look good, but none of them do. Somebody please provide them w/ a mirror. Hey, I'm Italian-American too, but this is the least physically attractive cast ever to hit television.
You can't legislate stupid.
Does she even have an IQ over 100? Seriously she wants everyone to have a tanning bed in their home?!?!? I'm 21 and I had skin cancer from the regular sun without having to go to the tanning bed. Sorry but I will laugh when "Snookie" gets stage 3 or 4 melanoma because of her desire to be a "guidette."
I really hate those greasy wops
she's such a fucking pig!! Fat as a cow and needs many more punches to the face!!
I bet she has big fat flappy piss flippers
Up yours Perez, you talentless, famewhoring, name-dropping wanna-be! Do you really think this "little girl" is making social statements for the well-being of the world population? By reporting on her constantly, you are giving her free publicity. You two probably hang out together and plan all this shit anyway…..then split the profits.
Re: Christina1 –
I agree!
why dont people just use fake tan? yeah it might be more difficult to get right but at least youre not killing yourself. but tbh what kind of a loser would make a formal complaint over that comment?
Snookie …. Snookers …. Snickems is the shit BITCH! Snookers of love all the way tht show would be hilarious and everyone knows it!
She reminds me of those women from the 60's with the beehives who just look nasty now b/c they tanned so much.
SHE'S NOT FROM JERSEY!!! WE ARE NOT ALL THAT RETARDED (BUT THERE ARE A FEW)!!!! IF YOU WANT TO BE TAN, GET AN AIRBRUSH TAIN… THEY RULE!!!! AND IT IS IGNORANT TO THINK THAT SKIN CANCER IS NOT SERIOUS, IT IS… I TAN EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE, BUT I ALSO DON'T GO OUT IN THE SUN AS MUCH AS OTHERS IN THE SUMMER AT "THE SHORE"… I HAVE A FUCKIN JOB UNLIKE THOSE LOSERS… PS SEASIDE HEIGHTS IS LIKE THE TRAILER PARK OF JERSEY SHORE TOWNS… JUST THOUGHT I'D LET YOU KNOW…
why oh why do you keep putting this whore on your sight? !!!!
why oh why do you keep putting this whore on your sight? !!!!
Uh if you have to worry about Snooki being a role model to your kids then maybe you shouldn't have kids. Can people not control their kids or what their kids watch with out having a shit attack about what on T.V. serious people throw your fucken t.v out the window if your sooo worried sheesh everyone needs to calm the fuck down already!
i like her, but seriously if she keeps getting in fights she needs to take some fighting lessons or something cuz she keeps getting beat up.
she fake and bakes waaayyyyy toooo much.
hahaha i cant believe this girl thinks she actually looks good doesnt she know she a joke for all of us ghettoo!!! the faker the better
Gross unfeminine girl .
poor midget has to have big hair just to be seen as a big girl, instead as a 12 year old like she acts….
Hey, Snooki - Males and females who have ever used tanning beds have a 15 percent higher risk of developing melanoma. More alarming still, based on 7 worldwide studies, people who first use a tanning bed before age 35 increase their risk for melanoma by 75 percent. -International Agency for Research on Cancer
Okay, everyone thinks this quote is STUPID because SHE is stupid… However, if Dr. Oz said something like this we'd think "Wow! That's AMAZINGLY TRUE!" Tanning is good in moderation. People who tan in moderation are a lot of times happier, healthier, and they LOOK healthier. It's a lot better to get your vitamin D the "'ol fashioned way" by going OUTSIDE *gasp!* but not everyone can soak up the sun –especially in the midwest in JANUARY, like me– so they can use tanning lamps –some of which are used by DOCTORS but are called "phototherapy" instead. Big word. Seems smarter…
Do we all need a tanning bed in our home? Probably not. Is this the dumbest quote of the century? Probably not either.
TANNING IS GREAT. Looking like a citrus fruit? Not so great.
I also agree about the fact that it's ridiculous they are focusing on THIS rather than focusing on how awful it is she got her lights punched out by a MAN in a bar just for telling him to stop drinking shots THEY paid for THEMSELVES, not for HIM.
