Snooki Doing Prenatal Yoga = Awesome. Her Baby Weight Attitude = Less Awesome.

Snooki Doing Prenatal Yoga = Awesome. Her Baby Weight Attitude = Less Awesome.

We can’t help but have a love-hate relationship with Snooki: One minute, she’s shilling for shady diet pills, the next, she’s teaching Ellen ab exercises and talking like a wised-up mama. Her latest contradiction comes all in one interview, with The Insider, in which she simultaneously touts the benefits of prenatal yoga (yay Snooki!) and talks about using it to keep herself from gaining “extra weight” during pregnancy, because she wants to snap back to her little bod once the baby’s found its way out of her uterus (bad Snooki!).

Snooki Is Having A Boy, Is Not A Horny Pregnant Sex Goddess (Unlike Jessica Simpson)

Snooki Is Having A Boy, Is Not A Horny Pregnant Sex Goddess (Unlike Jessica Simpson)

The world is abuzz with Snooki‘s announcement in In Touch magazine that she is having a boy. And while that’s all well and good (she said she’d have preferred a girl, but, you know, things happen), what’s really interesting in the interview is the 24-year-old Jersey Shore star’s very refreshing honesty about her pregnant self. Thank you, Snooki, for once again being a voice of reason (file that under “Sentences I Never Thought I’d Write”). More »

Snooki Tells V Magazine: “I’m Overweight Because I Drink and Eat Bad For Show’

Snooki Tells V Magazine: "I'm Overweight Because I Drink and Eat Bad For Show'

Snooki got serious (or at least, into less less makeup than usual) for an interview in V Magazine‘s June 2012 issue, promising that her impending role as mommy will reveal a whole new side of her personality to fans. In fact, while the 24-year-old Jersey Shore star might seem like the most authentic celebrity on TV, she almost gives the impression that everything fans love—and critics hate—about her personality is for show, including her weight.

Snooki Pregnant On Jersey Shore Will Make Great TV…Because Not All Moms Are Healthy

Snooki Pregnant On Jersey Shore Will Make Great TV...Because Not All Moms Are Healthy

Snooki has confirmed that she’ll be filming the next season of Jersey Shore while pregnant; a lot of people are, understandably, perplexed as to how this is possible, given that the show is primarily driven by most of the cast being really drunk, most of the time. Critics say it could change the dynamics of the show, at best, or completely ruin it at worst. But while it remains unclear how a 100% sober Snooki is going to fit in on Season 6, I think this could actually make for some really great reality TV; while it might not be what all fans were looking for, the reality is that not all moms or moms-to-be are healthy, or surrounded by healthy people. And Snooki, of all people, should make that pretty interesting. More »

Snooki Shouldn’t Have To Justify Hiding Her Pregnancy For 3 Months

Snooki Shouldn't Have To Justify Hiding Her Pregnancy For 3 Months

I don’t think we should be so quick to judge Snooki for lying about her pregnancy last month. Sure, it’s getting to be old hat, celebrities hiding personal news until they can strike deals with entertainment tabloids (or drug companies). From Kim Kardashian’s TV wedding to Paula Deen’s belated diabetes announcement, fans are starting to feel unfairly manipulated. Now that it’s come out that Snooki is three months along—and has brokered a Us Weekly cover to announce the news—the general reaction has been cynicism. But there are legitimate reasons not to reveal a pregnancy right away. More »

A Snooki Success: ‘I Drink Like Two Pinots Once A Week And I’m Good.’

A Snooki Success: 'I Drink Like Two Pinots Once A Week And I’m Good.'

Press photos and twitpics revealed a significantly slimmer Snooki this holiday season, but given her reliance on sketchy diet drugs (and promise to reward herself for weight loss with a boob job), we weren’t so convinced that she had the whole healthy living thing down. And yet… Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi does seem to be having some success in cleaning up her act. In an interview to air on Ellen today, she revealed that she’s now drinking far less; tallying her total intake at a moderate two drinks of wine per week. More »

Daily Fail: Let’s Stop Applauding Snooki’s Post-Weight Loss “Curves”

Daily Fail: Let's Stop Applauding Snooki's Post-Weight Loss "Curves"

Snooki is pretty much the poster child for how not to lose weight—if you happen to think using sketchy diet pills and rewarding yourself with plastic surgery are bad ideas, that is. But that’s not stopping the Daily Mail from regular applause of Snooki’s post-weight loss bod: Nearly every article about the Jersey Shore reality star is centered around the new “skinny” Snooki’s weight. Their latest headline, “Well she certainly hasn’t lost her curves! Slim Snooki shows off her cleavage in plunging top as she hosts Vegas bash” is just the latest example. More »

Snooki: A Badly Photoshopped Poster Child For How Not To Lose Weight

Snooki: A Badly Photoshopped Poster Child For How Not To Lose Weight

Jersey Shore‘s Nicole ‘Snooki’ Polizzi showed off photos of herself in a swimsuit on Twitter this week, causing new commentary on her “super slim” figure. But the latest evidence of Snooki’s weight loss just makes her seem more like a poster child for how not to lose weight. Between the badly-done photoshop (is anyone else wondering where the bottom of her “monokini” went?), the risky Zantrex-3 diet pills she’s been using to lose weight, and her clear problems with body image in the past, we just wish we could give her a hug and a good body image counselor.
