The University of Florida is apparently furious that one of their students partied on camera with the ‘Jersey Shore’ crew. The officials who run the study abroad program in Italy, where the show is being filmed, have reportedly given their student an ultimatum; stay away from the cast or be expelled.
The University of Florida sent out an email to students participating in their study abroad program in Italy, stating that “any student who does agree to participate in the filming of the show, or who signs a waiver or legal agreement of any sort with MTV, will be dismissed from the program immediately.”
The email also warned the students that any action deemed potentially embarrassing to the school “will not be tolerated.” The school threatened to contact the student’s parental units to inform them why the school would be kicking them out of the program.
TMZ spoke with Janine Sikes, UF Director of Public Affairs, who said, “Generally speaking, students may participate in activities outside their Study Abroad program as long as they meet the academic and living requirements of that program.”
I mean, if the show doesn’t mention the university at all, why does it matter? I could understand if they didn’t want the cast and crew on their campus, but what students do on their own time is none of their business.
On the plus side, though, this is probably the closest that Snookie, The Situation or DJ Pauly D will ever get to being connected with academics.
If you’re in the market for some new sunglasses, hold out a little longer because a new brand will be hitting the shelves soon… right beside the fake tanner and hair gel.
Jenni “J-Woww” Farley says that she wants to enter the business with co-star Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi of Jersey Shore, reports People.com.
At the Premier of Grown Ups, J-Woww said that Snooki will add “Spunk” to her new fashion line called Filthy Couture, continuing, “I’m a good designer, but she’s great with ideas. She tells me…and I can put them on paper.”
Snooki seems to be onboard, “I’m very impressed with Jenni,” she said. “Her style is amazing. It’s very sexy, very sleek. I’m definitely going to wear her stuff.”
But it’s not just sunglasses you’ll get to wear while fist pumping your night away, Filthy Couture aspires to be so much more. “I would love to see Lady Gaga in one of my bathing suits,” says J-Woww.
We’ve got a question: Would you wear anything designed by the cast of Jersey Shore?
Earlier this week reports were flying around that MTV’s reality hit Jersey Shore was renewed for a second season. Now apparently that’s kind of true.
A Jersey Shore party at 501 Lounge in Montclair, NJ, was shut down by the fire department when the club got too crowded, reports TMZ.
J-WOWW and Vinny of the MTV show were present and had to be hidden in a closet while the club was evacuated.
