Jersey Shore Cast Goes on Strike

07/19/2010 by

So I guess it’s gym, tan, laundry…picket line? The cast of MTV’s Jersey Shore have gone on strike, refusing to tape the rest of season 3 until they’re given more money. The show producers, however, have basically told them there are plenty of guidos in the sea: “The show is not about famous rich people with managers coming to the Shore.”

The cast struck a deal with MTV for $10,000 an episode for season 2, a deal that is now being used to rope the Oompa-Loompa-colored beach bums into shooting a third installment in Miami. Sorry, kids, but I really don’t see how making ten-large an episode to tan, booze, and load up on Muscle Milk constitutes strike-worthy working conditions. I think the producers are right—while Snooki, JWoww, The Situation and Pauly D may have made the show popular, I don’t think it’d be too hard to replace them with people just as ridiculous. Wildwood, NJ is crawling with throngs of substitutes just as ridiculous as the original-recipe Jersey Shore.

    Oh, please, please, please replace them. I would love for someone to show fabricated celebrities like these that they are lucky, not entitled. And entirely expendable. They should thank their lucky stars they ever got paid a dime to do what they were doing for free. Not to mention all the perks their celebrity brought them. That wasn’t enough? Fine. Goodbye. Go back to working at the dry cleaners.

    I can’t wait for these people to return to anonymity. It’s amazing that their heads fit into a room anymore.
