Here’s official confirmation from Us Weekly of what we already knew. We’ve already seen Snooki’s engagement ring and have heard from People that she’s pregnant, and her horribly repellant ex-boyfriend has even spoken about his desire that she’ll miscarry the baby (douche). Now Us Weekly has brought us the official story that we’ve (not really) been waiting for … because we’ve also already heard that Us would be the ones with the cover story. Poor Us. They probably cut the check weeks ago and decided to run the story anyway even though it’s a bit exhausting at this point to announce that Snickers is indeed both pregnant and engaged to Jionni LaValle. Yes, she’s even admitted to drinking while knocked up but it happened before she realized her uterus was otherwise occupied:
Time to fist-pump for a little guido or guidette-to-be!
After weeks of rumors, Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi confirms exclusively in the new Us Weekly that she is 15 weeks pregnant — and engaged to the father, beau of one and a half years Jionni LaValle.
And the Jersey Shore star and LaValle, both 24, know just what detractors are thinking, they tell Us.
“I have different priorities now,” reformed party girl Snooki says. “I don’t care what anybody else thinks. As long as I know I’m ready and he’s ready.”
Adds LaValle: “We are not going to screw this up.”
The once pouf-haired star and LaValle discovered the news “right after New Year’s,” she said. Snooki’s first thought? “‘S–t, I’ve been drinking!’ I was worried. It was New Year’s Eve and we were in Vegas, so I did go crazy.” she admits.

Here’s a question for the “Shore” fans out there — after two episodes featuring Snooki’s raging UTI, the idea of her actually being pregnant while filming her spinoff is a bit squicky, right? Meanwhile, the horror of the “Shore” will continue unabated, for despite earlier rumors that the show would be recast with cheaper drunk tarts after Season Five, it looks like Season Six is a go with the same cast, possibly minus Snooki or with both her and the bump:
MTV hopes the development could turn into another ratings boon as the roly-poly reality star tackles motherhood. “It will definitely give MTV ratings,” the source said. Another insider said the show is taping scenes in which Snooki drops the “bombshell” news to her “Jersey Shore” pals that she’s carrying a mini-guido while the others “try and look surprised.”
Meanwhile, sources say MTV will move ahead with a sixth season of “Jersey Shore,” set to begin shooting in “early summer.” It’s unclear how Snooki, and her bump, would figure into the new season. “They [may] throw [Snooki] a ‘Jersey Shore’ baby shower, or have her just pop in from time to time,” a source said.

I can totally imagine Pauly D’s “shocked” expression, which would be the same face he made after realizing that he drastically overtanned (and burned) his face. Speaking of Pauly, here’s a link to the new trailer for his spinoff, “The Pauly D Project,” which will debut on March 29. At the very least, it promises to be more entertaining than this Snooki and J-Woww’s spinoff, and I’m not saying that because Snooki is pregant and (theoretically) won’t be dancing around with lampshades on her head. Rather, the dynamic between the two ladies isn’t a terribly interesting one at this point. J-Woww is very maternal and has the effect of muting Snooki’s over-the-top persona. This is sure to be be the most boring spinoff ever.

poor child.
Poor child indeed. I can’t help shaking the suspicion that this is a way to keep the clock ticking on her 15 minutes of fame.
My thoughts exactly.
Dear lord..
oh my god lol. I was scrawling down and said the same thing in my head and saw your post… but seriously, this is not good. pretty sure those 16&pregnant girls are more qualified than snooks
Not a religious woman, but I made the sign of the cross when reading of the second coming of the Anti-Christ.
lol!
OMG. What….I mean….waaaa….I can’t even…….Omg.
That cover is hideous. Who did the photoshop?
I don’t know, but they should be fired! So awful *shudder*.
While she is kind of annoying mess, I do wish her a healthy and happy baby. Hell, worse people than Snooki have children. She may actually grow up
Can anyone tell me about JWoww’s tennis shoes?? I WANT THEM!!!!!
They kinda look like Cortez’
Thank you @ Bookworm_mommy!!!
I seen worst people become parents turn out to be really good parents because the things they went through when they was young so you never know.
This is a joke reply right?
I’m confused. That pic on the cover of US Mag doesn’t even remotely look like Snooki, the piggy pickle eater.
Good try, but yeah .. riiight.
The only people out there who would think she would be a bad mother would be those who dont have any children.
That’s a rather broad statement, how do you figure?
Not just a broad statement but a ridiculous one as well.
pretty sure if you asked many parents they would disagree with your statement…
I was a huge party girl, like Snookie, getting wasted and doing stupid crap until I found out I was pregnant. The only difference is my drunken antics weren’t displayed on tv or I’m sure some judgmental people would have said the same thing about me. It’s not fair to judge her future parenting skills because she’s in her young 20’s living her life. Anywho, I had my baby and my priorities went from getting blacked out drunk 5x a week, to drinking once every couple weeks, people do change.
I can see her being a pretty decent mother. She has a very nurturing side and is already expressing a sense of self-control. i say good for her.
As an unashamed Jersey Shore fan (I can’t help it..) I think she’ll do well as a mom! Jionni will probably keep things in check (from what I gather on the show and twitter and stuff) and she’ll be a blast. She’ll love that kid, no question.
Haha, me too. I figure that as long as Jionni is around things won’t get too out of hand. He seems like a pretty good guy. I hope they have a happy life together, and that they have a healthy baby! And worse people have kids all the time.
Wow, this show is going to be a total bomb! Does MTV really think people are going to tune in to see boring J-wow and Snook doing the maternal thing? Sounds like a total bore
Due date: December 21, 2012 hmmm… Guess the Mayans were right
Not possible. If that was the case she wouldn’t even be pregnant yet. Her estimated conception date would be between Friday, March 23, 2012 and Friday, March 30, 2012… She’s probably due around Halloween though.
Halloween? How apropos.
Halloween? She’s 15 weeks now-ish, so she’s due late August (I’m almost 15 weeks now – we’re DUE DATE BUDDIES. barf)
Both of you are wrong. I am pregnant… and only 2 weeks different than her. She will be due the end of August or possibly the first week of September.
When I typed that I hadn’t seen how far along she was, I thought she said she was only 3ish months. My bad.
I think she will be ok. This may be the wake up call she needs. They will be just fine, always wish the best to new parents. Babies are blessings.
Stranger things have happened. Remember when Nicole Richie was first pregnant and everyone thought the world was going to end? Look how that turned out. She looks to be a great mother, married to Joel for over a year (maybe 2) and she’s turned her life around with several collections and lines that are not only generating money but are nice.
Snooki might end up being a great mum. From all I’ve read about her OFF the show, I’ve only watched about 5 minutes of the Jersey Shore EVER, she’s actually a nice person and her “character” is totally played up on the show. I’m not a mother yet but from what I’ve heard from friends, it really changes your priorities and most have become a lot more zen. You have to give her a chance.
Maybe, just maybe this Cheeto-colored garden gnome will fade away…….
Let’s sincerely hope this is the case. I’m also hoping that with her gone, the show will fail, and the whole lot of these idiots will go away FOREVER.
Such a moronic show.
Her face on that cover is going to give me nightmares tonight!Eek
She doesn’t look exactly thrilled in her cover photo. Anywho, I hope she does get her priorities straight and becomes a good mom. Sometimes we need a wake up call. I know I was a bit of a wild child before I was blessed with my son.
Uh, who is that on the cover? Photoshop fail because that sure as sh*t doesn’t look like Snooki!
This is the worst news I have heard. So it’s okay for useless people like her to procreate. I feel really disturbed by this. It seems like morons just continue to populate and produce more and more morons! Sad Day, Sad Day…But hopefully that means the show with her and Jwow will be shut down! So there is a light at every tunnel 🙂
Some people just shouldn’t have children. I’m guessing she would be one of them.
One of her first priorities should be dumping the light pink lipstick – it makes her mouth look incredibly ugly. I’ve seen her recently where somebody did her lips (assuming she didn’t do her own makeup since she looked way better than usual) in a darker red and her mouth looked completely normal. The white/baby pink lipstick really brings out the worst.
What happened to J-woww’s face? Too much plastic surgery already????
Snooki is probably an alcholic. I’m doubtful that she stopped drinking that easily considering a friend of mine told me that JWoww and Snooki were trashed at her hotel in NJ just a few weeks ago.
This wouldn’t surprise me, poor baby.
Which would put her at about 3 months along. Sad.
She’s drinking for two now.
If Snooki, ME!!oncey, and Jess all design maternity lines, what a fashion trifecta that will be! (Notice I didn’t specify what type of trifecta.)
I do hope the baby is healthy, though.
I was praying that she just got fat again and decided to bust out a new ring…
She’s as dumb as Kimberly Stewart!!
She got pregnant on purpose to be able to stay in media & sell her stories & get higher ratings for her new show. Next will be her guido wedding.
I cant imagine who cares about her as far as a mother & wife. Its her drunken antics that made her fun to watch. No one wants to watch her day to day life raising a child. I sure hope after she has the baby she doesnt try and do a show with her and him like duh how do we raise a baby. Its funny when single but after married with kid her acting stupid would just be pathetic.
Drinking during pregnancy, even the earliest stages (before most women know they’re pregnant) can harm your baby and affect their later development. I do commend Snooki for being honest about this, because the more we talk about it the more we can reduce the stigma and more women can get the help and support they need to have alcohol-free pregnancies.
http://www.motherisk.org/women/alcohol.jsp
Support the women in your community by spreading awareness and helping them to have alcohol-free pregnancies.
If I’m not mistaken, quite a bit of damage can be done before a woman even knows she’s pregnant.
There’s an awful lot of cell division and development going on in the earliest stages of pregnancy, which means baby is at one of its most vulnerable stages of life/development.
(And I’m not getting into the whole “zygote vs. personhood” debate here; I’m just using my own words.)
That’s what I just said… even in the earliest stages before most women know, alcohol can still harm your baby.
I don’t think it’s fair to judge Snooks and say she would still be drinking during her pregnancy, or that she would be a horrible mother. Anyone ever read about the original Amphetamine Annie, Miss Judy Garland? She was way more messed up than Snooki in the dependency department but you know what, she respected her unborn children enough to not continue drug use while pregnant. So give Snooki the benefit of the doubt.
