Footwear company MeyeWorld is launching a line of flip-flops with Jersey Shore heffalump Snooki. One style of shoe will be pink with a pickle print and have Snooki's name on them. What else?

Jersey Shore heffalump Snooki was held in police custody this weekend in Florence after crashing into a police car, bringing her international crime spree to an end. She may have been injured in the accident because today she's wearing a neck brace. But our Snooki sure knows how to do it justice.

America's favorite fried pickle princess has had a car accident! She is okay. But at least two police officers had to go to the hospital, and our Snooki—who was not drinking or drugging, sources say—might be facing some Italian-style law charges.

Jersey Shore instigator The Situation and brawler Ronnie were seen arriving at their Florence apartment separately this morning. Sitch had cuts and bruises on his face and Ronnie had a scraped and bandaged hand, supposedly from beating Sitch in the face.

An official from the University of Florida sent out an email to the students at the school's study abroad program in Florence threatening to oust anyone caught partying with Jersey Shore cast members. That sounds a little harsh.

The troubled starlet is on the mend and sending the internet racy pictures of herself. The Situation sued his own father, Lindsay Lohan gets kicked out a party, Leonardo DiCaprio is dating a Gossip Girl. Tuesday's gossip just wants to relax on a beach somewhere.

For Jersey Shore star Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino, a delayed shooting schedule for the show's fourth season may be the least of his problems right now. Earlier today, his father, Frank Sorrentino, came out swinging with an online video in which he accuses his son of leaving his family to suffer while getting rich. And as if that wasn't enough, in an already-released second video, Frank claims that Mike was fired from a job for receiving oral sex from a 40-year-old co-worker. What's next? [TMZ]

After having to postpone their trip to film season four of Jersey Shore in Italy late last week because the no-good mayor of Florence yanked their filming permits, the cast is scheduled to go back to their spiritual homeland once again, but they'll just miss the country's hard-partying prime minister.

I have always called Jersey Shore the most important sociological experiment of our time, and it seems one intrepid University of Chicago student agrees with me because he's not only stolen my tag line, but is trying to organize an academic conference around the reality show. This is a brilliant idea.

From time to time on Late Night, Jimmy Fallon graces us with 'Jersey Floor,' his 30 Rock-set Jersey Shore parody. And while any installment is worth watching, tonight's offering—featuring cameos by Tina Fey and Amy Poehler as skanky stalkers who tussle with Rachel Dratch's Snooki—was pretty much perfect.

Who was the little girl holding her ears on the balcony? Where are Kate and Will going on their honeymoon? And why can't Angelina "Trashbags" Pivarnick be as happy as those two? Saturday gossip is wearing lace sleeves.

We've only seen the first "Meet the Cast" teaser of Geordie Shore the MTV UK version of Jersey Shore and already we're disappointed. Just like you can't make soccer happen in the U.S., you can't make guidos happen in the U.K.

The brilliant thespians over at Playbill.com have devised a series of videos where two actors read transcripts from Jersey Shore as if they were written by Oscar Wilde. It's rather amazing how elevated the show is when it's in this context with Wilde's signature style. Just try to tell us whether Snooki or Wilde who said, "I don't eat lobster or anything, because it's alive when you kill it."

Season four of Jersey Shore hasn't even filmed yet and already the show's tortuously unstable couple Sammi and Ronnie have gotten together and broken up 17 quadrillion times. Apparently now it's officially back off again.

Snooki is known for eating fried pickles and drinking sugary cocktails that come in glasses larger than her head—including the pouf (RIP)! Now we hear that she's on a diet to slim down for the next season of Jersey Shore. Say what?

Florence, Italy will play host to our eight favorite guidos from Jersey Shore for the series' fourth season, and now the city's mayor of has issued a litany of rules the show has to follow as it takes the circus abroad. These are going to be impossible to follow.

Snooki, the figurehead from Jersey Shore, is getting a lot of heat from the media these days. But it's about time everyone shut up and stop harshing on how much money our dearly beloved Snooki rakes in.

Just when you think there isn't enough readily available high culture in this country — the opera is too expensive, plus Lepage's staging of Das Rheingold actually makes us miss fusty old Otto Schenk — comes news that we are saved. Specifically, we're getting some Jersey Shore spin-offs.

Last night Jersey Shore heffalump Snooki was the main feature at WWE's biggest event of the year, Wrestlemania. Watch her kick WWE Women's Champion Michelle McCool's ass with this insane back handspring maneuver and then pin her with a Bam-Bam Bigelow style cartwheel. This girl sure has a lot of coordination—when she's not wasted and falling down in the sand.

Yesterday I remarked how sad I was Jersey Shore was over for the season and someone replied, "No, there's still the reunion." Screw that. The only thing worse than your favorite reality show being off the air is the inane reunion special.
