By Jocelyn Vena, with reporting by Ignacio Guzman Cast of “Jersey Shore” Photo: MTV “Jersey Shore” fame has made its stars the Beatles of South Jersey this summer. But the cast isn’t the only draw for fans making the pilgrimage to Seaside Heights. It seems the T-shirt shop where castmembers made a living during season one, the Shore Store, has also become quite the hotspot.

Snooki ‘Too Good-Looking’ For Jail, John McCain Agrees

Posted on August 11, 2010 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

In another interview, ‘Jersey Shore’ starlet addresses President Obama and New Jersey Governor Chuck Christie. By Mawuse Ziegbe Snooki Photo: Jerritt Clark/ Getty Images “Jersey Shore” party girl Snooki responded to her recent arrest by declaring that she’s “too pretty” to be thrown in jail . And it appears that at least one politician has her back. In an interview with Phoenix radio station KMLE Country 108 , Senator John McCain agreed with Snooki’s claims that she’s too much of a looker to be thrown in the slammer. On Wednesday (August 11), the onetime presidential hopeful posed a question to KMLE listeners: “Is Snooki too good-looking to go to jail or not?” McCain inquired. “She … has given a whole new meaning to our justice system, you gotta admit. I’m kinda leaning towards Snooki being too good-looking.” The politician said he’s been looking out for the reality starlet, named Nicole Polizzi, ever since they bonded during a Twitter exchange blasting President Obama’s taxes on tanning . “Now, I’ve been worried about what’s going on with her, of course, since I have this attachment,” McCain said. Although she has the senator’s attention, Snooki’s club-hopping antics haven’t hit the radar of the commander in chief. During a July visit to the ladies of ABC’s “The View,” Obama conceded that while he knows about Justin Bieber , he has no idea who Snooki is. The starlet recently said she doesn’t believe the president isn’t getting his weekly “Jersey Shore” fix. “I know he knows who I am,” Snooki told E! Online . “Why did he have to lie and say he didn’t know me? He did [mention] Snooki and JWoww about the tanning stuff, and now he doesn’t know who I am? He has to stop lying.” Although there’s no word on whether an Obama/Snooki beer summit will hit the president’s calendar anytime soon, Snooks has a message for a politician who’s definitely aware of the GTL-ing crew. In response to New Jersey Governor Chris Christie’s claims that the “Shore” collective puts the Garden State in a bad light, Snooki advised the governor to just relax. “He needs to come over and have a hot dog and a Corona and just chill,” she said. Do you agree with McCain and Snooki that she is “too pretty” for jail? Do you think Obama is lying about not knowing who Snickers is? Let us know in the comments below! Watch “Jersey Shore” Thursdays at 10 p.m. ET on MTV.

Julia Roberts, Javier Bardem Play ‘Eat Pray Love’ Vs. Gym Tan Laundry

Posted on August 11, 2010 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

‘What’s gym, tan, laundry?’ Roberts asks MTV News at film’s New York premiere. By Jocelyn Vena, with reporting by Josh Horowitz Javier Bardem and Julia Roberts attend the premiere of “Eat Pray Love” in New York City on Tuesday Photo: Michael Loccisano/Getty Images For devoted fans of the Elizabeth Gilbert book that has been adapted into a film opening Friday, “Eat Pray Love” isn’t just a title, it’s a mantra. Similarly, fans of MTV’s “Jersey Shore” know about mantras: The cast made a ritual out of gym, tan, laundry, and followers quickly adopted GTL. So when MTV News hit the red carpet on Tuesday for the New York City premiere of “Eat Pray Love” , we just had to ask, when it comes to words to live by, is it “eat, pray, love” or “gym, tan, laundry”? A somewhat clueless Julia Roberts was stumped. “What’s gym, tan, laundry? Oh, I’ve heard of ‘Jersey Shore,’ ” the star said to MTV News. And it seems she wasn’t the only one of the “Eat” stars who had no idea what we were talking about. “I don’t know that one. I thought you were going to say, ‘Suck it,’ and I was [going to be] like, ‘That’s not three words, to begin with, and that’s not a mantra,’ ” Billy Crudup explained. “Is that MTV?” the actor asked. “Oh, I know ‘Warren the Ape.’ That’s MTV. I’ve been on it.” So, does Javier Bardem start his day with GTL? “No. Gym, tan, laundry … no. No, no! I don’t even know what that means!” the Oscar-winner laughed. “I will look for it in the dictionary.” And fans of the “Jersey Shore” can add star Richard Jenkins to the list of people who have no idea what the heck gym, tan, laundry is. “No, I don’t. I don’t,” he confessed. “I watch ‘So You Think You Can Dance.’ ” “Glee” star Mike O’Malley, however, was more familiar with all things “Jersey Shore.” “Well, I know all about these kids. I know about JWoww, Snooki. I’m trying to get abs like the Situation,” he joked. “I’m all about the tanning and the laundry,” “Eat” director and “Glee” creator Ryan Murphy said. “I’m too old to be tanning. I love those guys on that show. I think they’re funny and amazing and quite brilliant at what they’re doing.” So does your life revolve around making sure you eat, pray, love or is it all about GTL? Let us know in the comments! Check out everything we’ve got on “Eat Pray Love.” For breaking news, celebrity columns, humor and more — updated around the clock — visit MTVMoviesBlog.com .

Posted on August 11, 2010 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Obviously the Jersey Shore chicks are absolute train wrecks and it’s only a matter of time before their spray tanned bubble bursts and they get back to working at Hooter or whatever the New Jersey knock off version of Hooters is, but until then I’m going going to post pictures of this Jenni Farley aka JWoWW chick because I like morons with massive boobs. It’s a pretty simple formula, put massive soft boobies on an idiot and I’m all over it. Call me.

Idris Elba Working On ‘Takers’ Mixtape, Praises Co-Stars T.I., Chris Brown

Posted on August 10, 2010 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

‘I’m gonna get superstar records on there,’ he tells Mixtape Daily of tape due same day as August 27 flick. By Shaheem Reid Idris Elba Photo: Getty Images The O.D.: A Mixtape Daily Exclusive Idris Elba is a big superstar, much deserving of all of the accolades, but don’t act like we didn’t put you up on his backstory as a DJ more than half a decade ago. When he’s not filming box-office blockbusters like “Obsessed” and this month’s upcoming “Takers,” he’s still getting it in behind the wheels of steel. Elba lays it down at the club during live sets and he’s still entrenched in the mixtape scene. In fact, he’s working on a major project to complement his latest film. “Takers mixtape; the film comes out on the 27th. I’m gonna put the tape out the same day as the film,” Idris told Mixtape Daily when we caught up with him over the weekend in Los Angeles. Elba, T.I., Chris Brown, Hayden Christensen and Jay Hernandez were all in the City of Angels doing press for the thriller. “I’m gonna get superstar records on there, some exclusives,” Elba continued. “But I’m also trying to get some people that follow me on Twitter, people that have been following and supporting ‘Takers’ to submit a couple records on the mixtape. Hopefully, it’ll be on Mixtape [Daily]. You can review the jam for me. I’ll throw a couple of my own songs on the jam, too — so be careful.” In the film, Elba plays Gordon Cozier, the leader of a team of highly educated, highly skilled, high-life-loving bank robbers. And yes, they play for high stakes. Gordon has just a few days to mastermind a seemingly impossible armored-car heist that would net the group tens of millions of dollars. At the same time, Gordon has family strife to confront: His sister leaves a drug rehab facility early and, almost immediately, falls off the wagon. “The truck scene. That truck thing, very, very exciting and unique,” Elba said of his favorite stunt in the film. As for his music-making co-stars, Grammy winners T.I. and Chris Brown, the British-born actor said he was impressed with their abilities as thespians. “They’re performers, number one,” Elba assessed. “And in this film, we’re being charismatic bad boys. That’s what going on. Chris and T.I., they got plenty of that.” For other artists featured in Mixtape Daily, check out Mixtape Daily Headlines .

Snooki Says Miami Girls ‘Threw Themselves’ At The ‘Jersey Shore’ Guys

Posted on August 10, 2010 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

‘Even in Seaside, before [anyone] knew who we were, the guys got a lot of girls,’ Snooki explains. By Eric Ditzian, with reporting by Audrey Kim Snooki Photo: MTV News Anyone who’s seen the first couple of episodes of the new season of “Jersey Shore” can tell that all the club-hopping, game-kicking action we witnessed last season in Seaside Heights has been ramped up exponentially with the crew down in Miami Beach. With greater public exposure, so it seems, comes greater temptation. But as Snooki told MTV News, the lure of the MTV cameras was evident back in Jersey too. “Even in Seaside, before [anyone] knew who we were, the guys got a lot of girls,” she explained. “The girls were throwing themselves at them. It was just 10 times more in Miami.” While Ronnie flirted with Jell-O shot girls and enjoyed a few three-way kisses at South Beach clubs , Snooki and her girls kept the gawking dudes at bay — well aware of their true, I-wanna-be-a-star motives. “And the guys, for us, it just wasn’t a good time, because we knew why they were throwing themselves at us,” she said. “I was just like, ‘No, not having it!’ ” Nor were they or “Shore” producers having any of the constant attention of tabloid photographers, who trailed the kids from gym to tanning salon to laundry to their jobs at a local gelato shop . “Miami, it was very overwhelming,” Snooki said. “Right when we got to the house, there was paparazzi everywhere. But the fact that the producers and the editing crew, they made it look like there was nothing there — made it so much better. Because we tried to avoid them so much, and you know the paparazzi — they’re going to follow us anywhere. We did what we could and we were still ourselves, no matter what.” “No money or fame can change us,” she added. Watch “Jersey Shore” Thursdays at 10 p.m. ET on MTV.

New Jersey native is a longtime friend of Snooki’s. By Kelley L. Carter Deena Nicole Cortese There’s a new guidette in the house, and she’s ready to party. On Friday (August 6), MTV announced that New Jersey native Deena Nicole Cortese has joined the cast of “Jersey Shore.” A longtime friend of show favorite Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi, Cortese is currently shooting with the rest of the crew in Seaside Heights, New Jersey. She joins the original castmembers, which includes Snooki, Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino, Jenni “JWoww” Farley, Ronnie Magro, Sammi “Sweetheart” Giancola, Pauly “DJ Pauly D” Del Vecchio and Vinny Guadagnino. The Cortese news was revealed at the Friday meeting of the Television Critics Association. Cortese, 23, describes herself as “class in a glass and party in a body.” (There’s no word on whether she, too, has a Snooki-esque nickname.) If possible, she plans to bring even more partying to the hit series. “I bring a lot of energy into the house,” she told The Associated Press. “I party.” The second season of the reality series premiered last week to a record-breaking 5.3 million viewers.
