No One Wants Jersey Shore Going To Italy

Americans want to keep the Jersey Shore cast close to home now that word has come out they'll be filming season 4 in Italy. Like, real Italy, not Little Italy, or Epcot Center Italy, or an Italy they might not embarrass us in. UNICO, the Italian-American organization that pretty much just wants the cast sleeping with the fishes at this point, unsurprisingly has a lot to say about the location change. When the show began they wanted it banned, and now they say sending the castmates to the old country is going to make us all look like "buffoons and bimbos."

A rep for the group told TMZ, "It will not only hurt Italians but all Americans … their outrageous, reprehensible behavior will make us look like buffoons and bimbos. People used to go to the circus to see the freak show—that is what this will be." Indeed, as someone pointed out to Fox, most of the beaches in Italy are topless.

Anyway, get your travel to Italy in now before these ladies and gents ruin it for everyone. And perhaps get a petition going for MTV to send these seven to another exotic locale, like, say, Siberia.

there are more important issues to worry about in this world.....just leave them alone already....if you dont like them i have an easy fix......don't watch them, dont read about them, change the channel, if u see one on the street look the other way. its that easy. If the haters need to worry about anything, worry about Japan.

Send them to Italy. Sicily to be exact. And have them be loud and obnoxious to a few members of La Cosa Nostra. Make sure they get it on film.

Who cares what Italians think of us, they have the ultimate trashy Italian manwhore: Silvio Berlusconi

Ph

Yeah but he's so smooth about it. Seriously, the guy is boss.

Yeah, now that I think about it, I wouldn't mind being in his shoes when I reach his age (74) in a few decades.

Italy, back to New York, whatever.................... As long as they leave NJ.

Having been to Italy last year, I assure you, they already think Americans are bimbos and buffoons.

TeddyNYC

Believe me, if you spend enough time there you'll realize that Italy has its fair share of bimbos and buffoons as well, beginning with the main man himself, Silvio Berlusconi.

nicemarmot

I don't think you have to go there to realize Berlusconi is bad news.

Sounds like a great place to go on vacation.

Seriously though, I would endure their condescension just to eat their food.

nicemarmot

Oh yes. Just thinking of it makes my mouth water.

UNICO: Where the FUCK were you when they sent Cake Boss to Italy? That show did more than enough to make you all look like buffoons.

Shoving all of them in a plane and slamming it into a mountain seems like a better idea.
