The “here” being South Beach, Miami.

The cast of Jersey Shore arrived the other night to start filming the second season of show.  Now that the name is something of a misnomer, should be interesting to see how MTV incorporates Miami or So-Be into it.

The gang wasted no time getting settled into their new digs before heading out to make spectacles of themselves.  GTL, (gym, tan, laundry).

In related Jersey Shore news, producers are now looking for more of the same to replace the originals if they want more money next season  “carry on the legacy“. 

A casting call went out to “non-haters” aged between aged 21 – 30 with the following requirements..  “Killer shades, awesome hair, bandanas and bling can mean only one thing. So if you’re a tanned and toned fist pumper, and you love the shore, we want to hear from you! Do you dominate the gym, tear up the dance floor and rule the bedroom? Prove it!”

Leonard Cohen was right.  “I’ve seen the future baby, it is murder.”

Two of those Jersey Shore creatures had a brush with fate last night in NYC.

Snookie, her wanna-be famewhore boyfriend, and Vinnie were attending a Purim party in the Sony building last night when the glass atrium caved in over their heads showering those below with glass and debris.  Luckily, no one was seriously hurt and Snookie’s substantial ego was left undamaged by the accident.

Anybody else concerned that she’s starting to refer to herself in the third person?   Other people who have done this in the past include Whitney Houston and Paual Abdul, if you catch my drift (and I think that you do).

Vinnie chimmed in with his version of the events too…

The Almighty may have many reasons to demonstrate wrath to the cast of Jersey Shore but I’m pretty sure it won’t have anything to do with their lack of Jewishness.

Let the fist pumping recommence, my orange tinted, amazingly self absorbed party animals, as clearly fate (fickle bitch that she can be) is on your side.

Get ready for a Kim Kardashian onslaught of shameless famewhoring.

Why?

She got upstaged. 

At her own fashion show.

By J-Woww of Jersey Shore.

DRAMA.

The other night at Kim Kardashian’s launch of her new clothing line for Bebe, J-Woww got seated in the front row, immediately creating a stir and the focus away from Kim. 

Wearing a turquoise Ed Hardy dress and garish makeup, the Jersey Shore star was inundated (bet she has no idea what that means) with questions, among other things, such as if her tits were real and if they could be poked.  Sadly, I’m not making any of this up.

Rumour is Kim didn’t take too well to this development, (the attention diversion, not the boob related questions) and reports say she was “irritated”. Considering she doesn’t like it when her sisters take the spotlight from her on their reality show or the media, this should hardly come as a surprise.

…Internet threatens to self-destruct in response.

Coming from NakedSnookie.Com, the thought bubble above her head says it all.  Most say this is the real deal, as the furniture matches twitter pics Snookie has previously sent from her bedroom. 

I remain skeptic as she seems a little less….stout then previous pictures I’ve seen of her in clothes.  Then again, I’ve never seen her from this angle (proof that all good things do in fact, come to an end).

Guess we’ll know soon enough.

Will it ever recover?

Looks like the cast of Jersey Shore, who attended the Superbowl (of course they did) this past weekend, will be calling Miami home for the filming of the second season.

Apparently MTVis renting a property just off of Lincoln Rd for the gang and is currently renovating the place to accomodate filming, which is set to begin this May. 

Can’t wait to see how Miami residents respond to the gang and their shenanigans.  Now that they’re all pseudo-celebs, the paps are going to be following them in droves as well.  It’s going to be a whole new level of trainwreck. 

Gotta wonder if Snookie somehow manages to smuggle her new boyfriend along for the ride and into the series.

Apologies to everyone who just ate or was just about to.

After spending the first season flying solo except for random hook-ups with The Situation, every-one’s favorite Jersey Shore punching bag and orange Oompa Loompa in drag has got herself a new boyfriend.

Snookie is now dating Emilio Antonio (top left), a body builder who works at her local gym.

The honeymoon period is over as it looks like the cast of Jersey Shore and MTV are already at odds again.

The issue this time?  According to Page Six, the relentless appearances the gang keeps making, thus risking over-exposure and the inevitable backlash.

After negotiating salaries that supposedly will gross each cast member $15 000 per episode, MTV doesn’t want their new brand to become synonymous with greed by showing up to every event, opening, or club that’s willing to throw money at them.

 Apparently, MTV wants the cast to limit themselves to two appearances a week and get their prior approval too.  Cast members can be fined or even face lawsuits if they flout the rules, although some of them are trying to get all they can while the getting is good.

Can’t say I blame the kids for trying to strike while the iron is hot, but at the rate they’re going, no one will bother tuning in to see the second season (which is supposed to film sometime this winter) as they all seem to be everywhere you turn.

Oh, the horror.

Page Six is reporting that three members of Jersey Shore (is it just me or are they everywhere?) are demanding tickies to New York Fashion Week events which starts on Feb 11th.  Apparently Michael Schweiger, who manages all of the cast save for Snookie, is saying three designers have approached members of the cast to either attend shows or actually model in them.  Hey, if Pamela Anderson can do it, why not the cast of Jersey Shore? 

Personally, I don’t see what the big deal is, although the idea of Snookie and The Situation seated beside someone like Karl Lagerfeld or Anna Wintour and asking them if they know who they are (apparently a common theme at the Grammy’s) would totally make my life.

Can you imagine the cut eye?

Meh.

Don’t know how I missed this one.  Actually I do, I was hoping praying it was a joke, but Mike (The Situation) Sorrentino of Jersey Shore is supposedly launching his own celebrity fragrance for men.

Called The Sitch, the fragrance will possibly include hints of tanning booth, hair gel, hot-tub hook-ups, ‘roids and gym sweat.  Mmmm…Hot! 

No telling when The Sitch will be launched or who in their right mind will carry it (discount drugstore chains?) as something tells me retailers like Saks, Macy‘s and Holt‘s won’t be on board for this one.

What’s next, “Snookums by Snookie”?

Literally.

Showing that he’s never going to completely leave his past as a peeler behind him or have any qualms about objectifying himself, if you haven’t noticed, almost half the photo’s he’s in, he’s either lifting up or unbuttoning his shirt, Jersey Shore’s The Situation (aka Mike Sorrentio) was at the Grammy Awards as well last night.

Guess the burning question of who Snookie took as her plus one has now been answered. 

Where did he buy that suit and shirt?  Stitches or Le Cheateau?  You’d think that asking for and getting about $7000 per appearance (for about 3 to 6 hours of “work”) The Situation would be able to afford something a little more chic.   You can take the boy off of Staten Island, but you can’t Staten Island out of the boy.
