‘Jersey Shore’ Newcomer Deena Is ‘Like An Energizer Bunny’

‘Me and Angelina have no similarities at all,’ Snooki’s BFF says of replacing ex-housemate when new season kicks off on Thursday. By Eric Ditzian Deena Nicole Cortese Photo: Marc Stamas/ Getty Images “Jersey Shore” newcomer Deena Nicole Cortese recently told us she brings “a lot of positive energy to the show.” That’s at least partly true, if the first episode of the new season is any indication of what’s to come as the cast returns from a Miami Beach sojourn. The pint-size Jersey native brings the party from the moment she steps into the Seaside Heights house, declaring, alongside gal pal Snooki, “Party’s here!” We won’t say what happens next, except that there’s a whole lot of positive energy, followed by a seriously negative roomie vs. roomie blowout. But whether she’s kicking back in the rooftop hot tub or hurling insults at fellow castmates, there’s no doubt Deena is one heck of an entertaining addition to the hit reality show, which debuts Thursday at 10 p.m. ET . “I’m like an Energizer Bunny, and you never know what you’re going to get. It’s great,” Deena told MTV News. “I’m very kindhearted and I’m like a kid at heart. That’s just me. I love life and I show how much I love life. I’m just being myself.” And being herself, Deena maintains, means being nothing like ex-castmember Angelina Pivarnick (even if they’re both trained dental hygienists). “Me and Angelina have no similarities at all,” Deena said. “We’re very different. We’re completely opposite, like oil and vinegar. I’m very positive. There are ups and downs in the house, but I don’t provoke things. I just like everything to be a good time. Positive energy is a blast.” The new season of MTV’s “Jersey Shore” premieres Thursday at 10 p.m. ET on MTV. Related Videos It’s The Return Of ‘Jersey Shore’!

‘Jersey Shore’ Star Snooki Opens Up About Boyfriend, New Book

‘I’m actually really nervous tonight because my boyfriend’s watching,’ ‘Jersey Shore’ star said on ‘The Tonight Show.’ By Jocelyn Vena Snooki on the “Tonight Show” on Monday Photo: NBC Snooki has a new boyfriend and his name is Gianni. And when she sat down to chat with Jay Leno on “The Tonight Show” Monday night, the late-night talk-show host got the pint-size “Jersey Shore” star to open up about her nice Italian beau. “I’m actually really nervous tonight because my boyfriend’s watching,” she laughed. “I don’t want to say the wrong thing and have us get into a fight or something.” Snooki said that before she decided to settle down with Gianni, she did have some reservations since she has amassed fame and doesn’t want guys to date her for the wrong reasons. “That’s why I was really nervous. [I was] like, ‘Is this guy really for me?’ ” she explained. “But he respected me and he was nice, so I liked him. He’s actually going to school to be a gym teacher and he’s a wrestling coach for little kids. “His family is awesome. They do Sunday dinner all the time. They’re a great family. I can only make grilled cheese. That’s all,” she joked. It’s a big week for Snooki. Not only does she welcome a new roommate into the “Jersey Shore” house, fellow “party girl” Deena, when the season kicks off Thursday, but she also has a novel out, the aptly titled “A Shore Thing.” She noted that while the characters are similar to her and JWoww, everything in the book is made up. “[It’s] very exciting,” she said. “It’s just based on things that are in my head, like made-up stories.” Snooki also opened up about her pre-fame jobs, which included retail. “I was working at Filene’s,” she recalled. “I was a cashier. I was in [the] old women’s [department]. I was like, try this flannel sweater on. I actually quit because I went into work one day really, really drunk from the night before and I went to my boss, ‘I have a really bad eye infection, I cannot stay here.’ And I got fired.” The new season of MTV’s “Jersey Shore” premieres Thursday at 10 p.m. ET on MTV.

Paris Hilton: Feeling Washed Up, Jealous of Snooki

Snooki has apparently made an enemy out of Paris Hilton, simply by virtue of getting so much attention. The ho-tel heiress feels she’s losing relevance. “It’s kind of sad,” a Hilton insider said . “Paris is so yesterday’s news. It infuriates her that Snooki is a sensation. She’s moaning how she feels washed up.” “She calls Snooki a ‘little troll’ and mocks her whenever her name comes up. Paris is furious that she’s been replaced by a new generation of reality stars.” The torch of annoying uselessness and inexplicable fame has been passed . Is Paris really that shocked? She herself only became famous for giving Rick Salomon oral and hand relief on video, and leveraged that into A-list status. It had to run its course at some point, given that no talent or redeeming qualities exist to bolster her celebrity. Just count your millions and be happy, P. As for the Jersey Shore star, she’s just getting started – and would love to break into Hollywood. “Hell, yeah. I would love to act,” Snooki told E! News . “I love The Office . I love stuff that’s like comical and I feel like I have that natural comical side to me where I can just go into a room and just act.” “I love the camera. No script. I really want to be on Family Guy . I’m waiting on that one. I tweeted Peter Griffin and said, ‘Get me on your show!'” Note to Snook. Peter Griffin is a fictional character. But feel free to familiarize yourself with these Family Guy quotes before your audition. The pint-sized Princess of Poughkeepsie realizes that wherever her career takes her, now is the time to strike while the curling iron is hot. “My goal in life is to brand myself and to make enough money where, if I have a big family, I can support them and never work again.” “Because,” she adds, “I can’t work after this.” That’s the goal. Paris did it. Can Snooki?

‘Jersey Shore’ Star Situation Teases ‘Hilarious’ New Season

‘[The new season] was a year that I was very into enjoying myself,’ Sitch says about episodes kicking off Thursday. By Eric Ditzian, with reporting by Tim Kash “Jersey Shore” star Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino Photo: MTV Maybe it was when he was sucking face with two random gals in a nightclub bathroom. Maybe it was the time he housed an egg sandwich while watching his buddy get laid. Whenever it happened, the Situation decided at some point that season two of “Jersey Shore” got just a bit out-of-hand. “In Miami, it was a little wild,” the reality star recently told MTV News. According to Sitch, his approach to the new season of the hit show, which premieres this Thursday, focused less on such sexual shenanigans and more on delivering straightforward laughs. “[W]e’re back in New Jersey and you had that sense of being comfortable, because we’re back home,” he said. “I really think this one is hilarious.” The changeup in style for the latest season represents an evolution of sorts for the Situation, who has branched out from the MTV show to a turn on “Dancing With the Stars” and multiple endorsement deals. As he explained it, “Season one was definitely wild. All the rules were thrown out the window because it was season one and it was the first time we were doing things. Season two, we were a little more experienced, we knew what to expect, but we were happy to be in Miami. At the same, I’ll be honest with you, we kind of went a little crazy.” The new season, in contrast, is all about goofing off and having fun — and getting to know new “Shore” face Deena Nicole Cortese. “For me, [the new season] was a year that I was very into enjoying myself,” Sitch explained. “There are many different little funny things. I really think it’s hilarious. As well as the new castmate that’s in there. She shakes things up.” The new season of MTV’s “Jersey Shore” premieres Thursday at 10 p.m. ET on MTV.

Snooki Reveals the Ultimate Hangover Cure

Drunk Snooki. That’s like saying hot Robert Pattinson . Talk about redundant. The first word is practically inherent. We know the girl hits the bottle. Hard. It’s not surprising, then, that the Jersey Shore star (real name Nicole Polizzi) knows the best way to kill that hangover after a long night of boozing. “Just keep drinking more!” she says. Who let the troll into the wine cellar? [Photo: Pacific Coast News] After ringing in New Year’s inside a ball dropping upon the Jersey Shore stomping grounds of Seaside Heights N.J., Polizzi partied with boyfriend Jionni LaValle . Decked out in diamond bling and a sparkling black dress, Polizzi danced into the wee hours, but rest assured, she is serious about her New Year’s Resolution. “I want to stick to my diet and work with my trainer,” she says. “And lose weight.” So no daytime public drunkenness arrests … well, not on weekdays anyway.
