Is there something your trying to tell us?
Uh-oh, we may have a situation here.
New York City’s The Village Voice asked the boys of Jersey Shore to participate in a photo-shoot for an upcoming issue, and since the three are always looking for an excuse to (a) doff their shirts and (b), appear in the media, they were only too happy to oblige.
Thing is, the photo shoot was for “The Queer Issue” (out today), with a headline article on “The Guido Ideal” which focuses on young Italian-Americans in the Jersey area who are on the down-low (closeted but sexually active). Given the general level of machismo in the culture (not to mention the Catholic upbringing), coming out in this enviroment can be a tricky er….situation.
MTV hasn’t made a comment about the new issue yet (and really, what is there to comment about)? Here’s hoping the boys of Jersey Shore take it all in stide without feeling the need for too much postering (Ronnie, we’re looking at you).
