Pauly D -- Gym, Tan ... Lamborghini

Published | Updated

Pauly D must be saving the $10K he gets an episode on "Jersey Shore"... because the fist pumpin' dude is in the market for a $200,000 Lamborghini.

TMZ has learned the tanorexic DJ checked out a souped-up Chopper Edition Lambo at Towbin Automotive in Vegas the other day -- the same dealership featured in the A&E show "King of Cars" -- and while he didn't drive anything off the lot, we're told it's "very likely" he'll buy the car.

Towbin's owner, Chop -- the guy who sold Khloe Kardashian a Rolls-Royce for Lamar Odom -- tells us Pauly liked the hard top Lamborghini but really wants a convertible to make room for his trademark blowout.

Sammi on 'Jersey Shore' Stay Out of Miami

Published | Updated

Sammi from "Jersey Shore" is officially in the clear after allegedly popping a girl twice in the face at a Miami club last month -- but it's only because she got the hell out of Dodge in the nick of time.

The Miami-Dade State Attorney's Office tells TMZ, the case of Sammi's fists of fury is closed -- because "as a matter of policy, we do not file charges involving misdemeanor crimes when the accused is beyond [our] jurisdiction."

But here's the rub ... if Sammi ever shows her face in Miami again, she could face battery charges.

According to the State Attorney, "This case could be revisited if and when the accused returns."

As if Miami needed a reason not to want her back.

The Situation -- Un-Real Diva

Published | Updated

Sources at "Jersey Shore" tell TMZ hands down ... the diva is The Situation, and he's made taping Season 2 extremely difficult.

We're told Sitch is now convinced he knows more about producing the show than the producers or MTV. As one source put it, "It's gotten ridiculous. If we tell him not to cross the street, he will. He just defies us."

What's worse ... producers are trying to keep the cast real ... so they're not making deals on the phone or bragging to castmates and others about their fame or their wallet. In that department, The Situation is out of control. As a result, a lot of what's already been shot is unusable, because it doesn't even resemble a reality show.

And here's what's pissing off producers the most. We're told the cast gets one time a week where they can take care of their personal business deals off camera. Sitch is on the phone all the time. We're told he thinks people want to see him wheeling and dealing on the phone, and it has driven producers crazy.

Bottom line ... there's a lot of tape that people will never see -- it's an unreal situation.

Snooki Re: Tanning Pants on Fire!

Published | Updated

Snooki wasn't telling the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth when she said she didn't use tanning beds anymore because of President Barack Obama's harsh comments.

Our "Jersey Shore" spies tell us Snooki is now doing what's called a cocktail -- she goes in a high pressure tanning bed, and then tops it off with a spray tan.

That's all the space we want to devote to this.

The Next 'Jersey Shore' -- Rednecks Wanted

Published | Updated

The masterminds behind "Jersey Shore" are looking for a new stereotype for a new reality show -- keg tappin', mud ridin', Skynyrd lovin', God fearin', honky tonkin' Southern folk.

TMZ has learned Doron Ofir Casting is looking for "12 lucky guys and gals who are keepin' it country and want to party their asses off" to star in a new reality show called "Party Down South."

According to DOC, there will be a casting RV that'll slow ride through Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas, Tennesse, Kentucky and West Virginia -- and hopefully land a crop of rednecks wild enough to make "Jersey Shore" look like "Hey Dude."

'Jersey Shore' Hopeful -- A Real Jersey Queen

Published | Updated

A New Jersey beauty queen wants to get with Snooki and The Situation -- not the way you're thinking -- as a new roommate for Season 3 of "Jersey Shore."

TMZ has learned Margaret Skourlis -- the current Ms. NJ United States (yes, that's a real pageant) -- auditioned for the show last week.

Margaret -- who's not Italian, but Greek-American -- tells TMZ she thinks she'd get along with Snooki, and claims she can handle the "JS" crew after surviving beauty pageants ... "We're not as evil to each other but we're just as snippy in other ways."

Margaret's best credential: She told us pageants and "Jersey Shore" both "excenturate things." Your guess is as good as ours.

We're told no final decisions have been made on casting yet.

Cops: The Situation's Abs Pose a Threat

Published | Updated

TMZ has learned The Situation was ordered to cover up his stomach this weekend after cops became concerned that his belly flashing was causing a large crowd to get violent.

It all went down at the Aztec Ocean Resort in Seaside Heights, NJ -- where according to officials more than 3,000 people gathered on the streets to watch The Situation dance on a hotel balcony.

According to the Seaside Heights Chief of Police -- people were getting pushed and shoved in the crowd when The Sitch removed his shirt ... so the Chief personally asked the "Jersey Shore" star to cover up and tone it down before the crowd got out of control.

The Chief tells us The Situation totally understood and even put his shirt back on ... but it's only a matter of time before it happens again!!!
