There are plenty of things to hate about Jersey Shore “star” Angelina Pivarnick‘s new song “Serendipity” and the accompanying music video, but probably the worst part is when Pivarnick’s co-star Adam Barta gets on the 1 train in the Upper West Side, inexplicably gets off at Grand Central Station and then walks to Times Square. This video’s existence not only defies logic, but the time and space continuum as well.

For a point of reference:

This makes no sense.

Another thing that makes no sense about this video is that, in a “cute” (read: exhausting) twist, the video ends with a double gay wedding. However, just last year Pivarnick was telling Barta that “honestly I don’t believe that gays should be married — it has nothing to do with gays personally — but I don’t f**king think that you guys should get married! You want to have your little flings with your gay partner when you’re younger and see how it is or whatever, that’s fine, but if you’re male, marry a female; if you’re female, marry a male.”

It’s worth noting that, in the past year alone, Barta has recorded songs with Pivarnick, Tan Mom, Octomom and the man with the world’s largest penis. So he’s very clearly a famewhore and everyone is a loser. Burn the internet down.

As part of mtvU and United Way’s alternative Spring Break, “Spring Fix,” the network brought in 50 college students from around the country to help rebuild areas in New York and New Jersey, which were devastated by Storm Sandy.

As a reward for their efforts, they were treated to games from the Jersey Shore cast and a concert from Ne-Yo and Timeflies on March 23 at Six Flags Great Adventure in Jackson, N.J.

Take a look at a sneak peek from “Spring Fix” above.

The special “Spring Fix” programming will air on MTV and mtvU Monday-Thursday. Here are some highlights:

Monday-Thursday: MTV will air two Ne-Yo performances and two Timeflies performances in the early evening. During primetime, look for some fun segments showing the volunteers working on “Spring Fix” projects with World of Jenks star Andrew Jenks in the Rockaways (Monday); Jersey Shore’s Vinny Guadagnino, Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi and New York Giants player Justin Tuck in Staten Island (Tuesday); the Real World cast in Union Beach (Wednesday); and the Jersey Shore cast and Jenks from Six Flags (Thursday).

Additionally, mtvU will air performances and “Spring Fix” footage throughout the day all this week.

If anyone knows how to party, it’s a Jersey girl.

And not just any girl, a Jersey Shore girl.

Sammi “Sweetheart” Giancola turns the big 2-6 today and while she’s ringing in the big day, Celebuzz has wrapped up the reality star’s best red carpet moments as a her special gift.

Giancola looks her party best in black and white prints when she’s stepping out on the town — and has been snapped at both the MTV Movie Awards and Music Video Awards in figure-hugging mini dresses.

And this lucky lady has someone special to celebrate with — and look good for — while she’s partying the night away with live-in boyfriend and former co-star Ronnie Magro-Ortiz.

Could Giancola’s bday also be the day her handsome guido gives her the ultimate present by popping the question?

Newly-engaged Jenni “JWoww” Farley recently told MTV she thinks “Ron’s gonna propose” sometime in 2013.

When Magro-Ortiz was asked about taking their relationship to the next level, he shyly said “baby steps.”

We’ll just have to wait and see. But first thing’s first, Happy Birthday, Sammi!

Do you think these Jersey Shore lovebirds are ready to tie the knot? Sound off on why or why not in the comments section below.

Pauly D has big plans for his former Jersey Shore co-stars and pals Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi and Jenni “JWoww” Farley.

Celebuzz recently spoke to the DJ, whose real name is Paul DelVecchio, on the set of his new music video “Back To Love.”

“I’m signed on for both weddings,” Pauly said. “I’m ready.”

As for Pauly’s dream guest for the upcoming parties? None other than his former tour mate and the newly single Britney Spears. (Pauly opened for Spears’ Femme Fatale Tour in North America in 2011).

“That’s a good idea,” he joked.

As fans know, Snooki has taken a huge step away from her party ways since becoming a mom to baby Lorenzo. During her visit to the CB! studio in January, the engaged star said she doesn’t’ really drink as much as people think she does.

“You only get this impression because of Jersey Shore and the only thing we ever did on Jersey Shore was drink . . . now with the baby, I hardly drink,” she said at the time.

Still, Pauly D thinks the party girl can come out for one final show.

“Snooki was the party girl, and I hope she gives one last hurrah at the wedding, be like this huge party. I say we do it in Vegas. That’s me. I think a Vegas wedding would be ideal for Snooki,” the 32-year-old said.

For more of our chat with Pauly D from the set of “Back To Love,” featuring Jay Sean, check out the video above. Then check out Pauly D dishing on how he’s keeping baby Lorenzo “fresh” (he’s got the hair gel ready).

Ne-Yo is giving back to those who are doing the same in the wake of Storm Sandy. And Celebuzz has the exclusive deets ahead of MTV’s official announcement on Monday.

The three-time Grammy-winning artist will headline the mtvU and United Way “Spring Fix” benefit concert at Six Flags Great Adventure in Jackson, New Jersey on Saturday, March 23.

The concert tops off mtvU and United Way’s alternative spring break, which kicks off on Sunday, March 17. They will bring 50 college students from around the country to help rebuild communities in the New York/New Jersey areas that were devastated by the storm.

“I feel privileged to be part of an event that not only recognizes young people who are volunteering their time to help people affected by Hurricane Sandy, but that is also continuing to raise awareness of the effect Sandy has had on many communities,” says Ne-Yo.

MTV’s Jersey Shore and The Show With Vinny star Vinny Guadagnino, as well as World of Jenks documentary series star Andrew Jenkswill be among the celebrities lending a hand during the alternative spring break.

Additionally, MTV and mtvU will be airing highlights from the “Spring Fix” service projects starting Monday, April 1.

Service projects are being planned with United Way in New York, including Long Beach, The Rockaways and Staten Island, as well as Ocean County, New Jersey.

“Spring Fix” is just the latest effort from MTV to help those affected by Storm Sandy. Last November, it aired the hour-long fundraising special, Restore the Shore. The network held its first alternative spring break with United Way in 2006 following Hurricane Katrina.

New mom’s the word!

When Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi stopped by Celebuzz’s Hollywood studios, she had no idea she was in for a treat – her turn at the hashtag game.

The new mother to son Lorenzo gave Daily Buzz host Hyla her best answers when prompted with some of today’s most popular hashtags.

When asked what image she would put next to the ever-popular hashtag #yolo on her Twitter, Snooki quickly knew exactly what she’d post.

“I’d put a picture of me drinking with the Pope,” she remarked.

The 25-year old star also revealed that she and her fiancé Jionni are “embarrassing parents” because of her partying ways on the hit MTV series.

“Did you see Jersey Shore? My child has to see that one day!”

Snooki’s newfound motherhood hasn’t seemed to slow her down one bit. On this season’s Snooki & JWOWW, the two ladies balance partying with serious relationships and Polizzi’s baby son.

Do you think Snooki was embarrassing on the Jersey Shore? Weigh in below.

Today, Celebuzz is continuing to look at the most powerful players in the business with our Hollywood Power Index — and who knows fame, fortune and success better than our own blogger, Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi?

We recently caught up with the former Jersey Shore star to find out how she turned a spot on a reality TV show into a mega-million dollar career — not to mention her own blog. (Seriously, you gotta check it out. It’s awesome.)

Have a look at the interview, below.

Celebuzz: Few reality stars are able to successfully brand themselves in a way that transcends the small screen. What is your secret?

Snooki: My fans. I have the best supporters in the world who love how I’m different. I have a certain style about me that helps me to brand myself differently from everybody else.

Celebuzz: When did you first recognize that your popularity from the series could be parlayed into something beyond TV?

Snooki: My first branding opportunity came when I was wearing these comfortable shoe slippers in season 2. Right after that season aired, I got a call to do my own line of sneaker slippers. That’s when I knew I could go far with my brand and try everything!

Celebuzz: Speaking of branding, define the Snooki brand. What are the trademarks or characteristics fans can expect in regard to products, promotions, appearances and other business decisions you make?

Snooki: My brand is different, unique and FUN. All my products have at least some animal print in it whether it’s in the product itself or the packaging. All of my products resemble my personality and how I always love to have fun.

Celebuzz: From tanning lotion to cosmetics, hair accessories and baby slippers, you’ve had a very busy year work-wise. Which of the business ventures over the past year has been your favorite to work on?

Snooki: I don’t like pin-point my favorite product I’ve worked on because I’ve honestly had a blast designing every single product I have. I’m very proud of everything that I’ve accomplished so far and feel very blessed to have these opportunities and my fans that support me. This is just the beginning of Snooki by Nicole Polizzi. My ideas are endless.

Celebuzz: Before collaborating with a brand or working with a company to develop a new line or products, what are some of the factors you look for when deciding to partner up?

Snooki: First, I have to make sure the people I’m working with understand who i am and my style. If they don’t get it, they’ll never get it.

Celebuzz: Without naming names, what is the most bizarre or worst business proposition that’s come your way?

Snooki: I’ve gotten a few pickle deals that didn’t sound so exciting. But my dad gets so many bizarre offers that he doesn’t even mention because he knows they aren’t right for the brand.

Celebuzz: Tell us a little about Snooki Couture By Nicole Polizzi. In what ways was this line strategically designed/developed in order to showcase your fashion sense?

Snooki: Snooki Couture is basically the grown up Snooki line. Since becoming a mom, I wanted to add couture to my brand to have the sense of classiness and also maturity, but still fun at the same time! So lots of animal prints, metallics, spikes, bows, golds and blacks, etcetera.

Celebuzz: You created a baby slipper line for Happy Feet/Snooki Slippers. Can mommy-fans expect more launches like this for their little ones?

Snooki: I definitely have a lot of ideas I’d love to come to life like diaper bags and also a fabulous maternity line. Throughout my pregnancy I did not wear or article of maternity clothes, and all pregnant ladies said I had amazing fashion during my pregnancy. I want women to feel just as good as I did pregnant and would love to design my own maternity line.

Celebuzz: What advice would you give to young women to encourage them on their path to success?

Snooki: Always stay true to what you believe you want your business/brand to be. Don’t ever change what you want just to succeed. You’re ideas are original and you will succeed one day.

Celebuzz: Where do you see yourself in 10 years? What are some of your major goals as they pertain to your career?

Snooki: My ultimate goal is to follow in Jessica Simpson’s footsteps. She has made herself to be a huge fashion brand. I also would love to have my own store and every product I can think of.

Mommy duty — from the Jersey Shore to Buckingham Palace.

A few months into motherhood, Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi couldn’t help but share a few words of wisdom for mom-to-be Kate Middleton.

“Advice to be a mom: don’t panic,” the former Jersey Shore starlet told Celebuzz during a visit to our Hollywood studio. “Everything comes maternally. Honestly, I don’t even know how to hold a baby. I wasn’t good with kids. And everything just came so naturally. I feel like I’m the best mom ever.”

As the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge prepare for the July arrival of their first child, Snooki has no worries for the royal baby.

“Honestly, that kid is going to be set for life because they’re, like, quadrillionaires,” she added. “Guaranteed, right when the baby pops out it’s already going to have a security guard. So it’s all good.”

Snooki may have settled into her new role as proud mommy, but that hasn’t stopped her from “meatballin” again. She recently hit the town for a girls’ night out with pals, including good friend and costar Jenni “JWoww” Farley.

So, what’s the No. 1 thing Middleton should keep in mind as a new mom?

“Don’t freak out!” Snooki advised.

She’s going from the Jersey Shore… to Celebuzz.

We’re delighted to reveal that Nicole ‘Snooki’ Polizzi is the latest celebrity to join our network of “Celeb Bloggers” — which now includes Kim Kardashian, her sisters Khloe and Kourtney, Kendall and Kylie Jenner, their mother Kris Jenner, Nick Cannon, Whitney Port, Holly Madison and Shenae Grimes.

25-year-old Snooki’s first blog for us and her new site is an exclusive video message to her fans.

“I am so excited to have this website because you guys are going to get to see everything that is going on in my life,” said Polizzi in the video message posted on Dec. 28, the official launch day of the site.

“I am going to share a lot with you. A lot of exclusive photos of Lorenzo!”

The Jersey Shore star and fiancé Jionni LaValle welcomed their first child, Lorenzo, into the world on Aug. 26.

In her welcome message, Polizzi called little Lorenzo her “amazing beautiful healthy boy” whom “I love so much.”

She explained that her new site — complete with her signature leopard print — will be the go-to destination for all Snooki latest news, including information about her Snooki & JWOWW (premiering on MTV Jan. 8) and her latest products.

“I do not want to Tweet a lot because I just feel, like, I don’t want to put it out there a lot,” Polizzi said.

“But with my website I can do blogs… and explain to you what is going on in my life and with Lorenzo. I think it will be more appropriate. With this website, I have so much more to give to you guys.

“I am going to show you my closet, my shoes, clothes and I also want to talk about what is hot now. Plus, my opinion on fashion these days. I love fashion.

“I am going to do a lot of blogging and hopefully it will come out right!

“I just want to share everything with you guys.”

Most of all, the young reality starlet — who burst onto the scene in 2009 — wanted to thank you, her fans.

“My fans are amazing and I wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for you. I am so excited about this website!”

Which reality shows had everyone buzzing in 2012? Showbiz Tonight’s AJ Hammer counts down the top 5 buzziest reality shows, exclusively for Celebuzz.

#5 – Celebrity Apprentice – America got a kick out of watching a bunch of celebrities turn on each other — for charity, of course. Once all of the bickering was over and everyone was fired, it was former late night talk show host, Arsenio Hall, who Donald Trump hired as the Celebrity Apprentice.

#4 – Kardashian’s Take Over E! – Whether it was Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom in Dallas or Kanye West switching up Kim Kardashian‘s style, the Kardashian’s continued to rack up viewers. The season finale of Keeping Up with the Kardashian’s broke ratings records for E!, setting us up for more Kardashian shenanigans in 2013.

#3 – Real Housewives of New Jersey – You just gotta love the endlessly classy ladies of RHONJ, especially Teresa in all of her glory.

#2 – Jersey Shore – Admit it, you’re going to miss the Jersey Shore gang. 2012 marked the final season of the boozy adventures in Seaside Heights. Now, that we’ve watched Snooki become a mom, there’s no way this show could get any more shocking.

#1 – Honey Boo Boo – TLC’s Here Comes Honey Boo Boo had everyone marveling at the pint-sized Georgia beauty queen. How big was Honey Boo Boo this year? She was spoofed on Saturday Night Live and ratings for the hit show rivaled those of the Presidential Conventions.

Which was your favorite reality show to watch in 2012? Are you a fan of Honey Boo Boo? Leave us a comment below.

Tune in to Showbiz Tonight Mon. – Thurs. at 11pm ET/PT on HLN. And be sure to check back every week for AJ Hammer’s countdown of the top 5 buzzmakers right here on Celebuzz.

Miley Cyrus’ Philly week continued with a visit to the Sigma Sound Studios on Tuesday night. The 20-year-old actress and singer stayed warm in a black-and-white turtleneck weather while flashing the peace sign.

“Studio with @Flippa123 @PopWansel @Oakwud,” Cyrus wrote on Twitter, referring to the producers she was hanging out with.

Over in St. Barts, France, Kate Moss flaunted her bikini body in an olive green two-piece while taking a dip in the pristine water.

The 38-year-old model is currently on holiday with her rocker husband Jamie Hince and daughter Lila Grace.

In Los Angeles, Jenni “JWoww” Farley was spotted in a pair of hot pink pumps while out for dinner at Katsuya restaurant. The reality TV star is gearing up for the series finale of Jersey Shore, scheduled to air Thursday on MTV.

Earlier this week, Farley and her cast mates held their last press event for the show.

“Thursday it’ll hit us when we watch the last episode together and do the reunion live,” she told Access Hollywood.

“[We’ll] probably all cry for good and bad reasons.”

Elsewhere, Glee co-stars and real life lovebirds Lea Michele and Cory Monteith caught a screening of Argo for date night in Hollywood while Kim Kardashianwas spotted arriving at LAX with a gorgeous new hairdo.

As the nation continues to mourn over the tragic shootings at Sandy Hook Elementary, many celebrities have banded together, offering support and words of condolences to the Newtown, Conn. community — including the cast of MTV’s Jersey Shore.

While the small New England town began to say farewell to its victims this week, the realities of the Dec. 14 massacre have left the reality stars in a state of shock and sadness.

Especially for new mom Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi,who couldn’t help but think of her baby boy, Lorenzo, during the ordeal.

“Me being a new parent and just thinking about dropping Lorenzo off, and then not seeing him ever again? It’s just terrible, and I’ve been crying for days just watching the news, thinking about it,” she told Celebuzz during a Jersey Shore press conference on Tuesday.

“So, I’m just trying to think of what I can do to help these people because I couldn’t imagine losing my child during Christmas. I mean, it’s terrible.”

The entire scope of the the shooting almost rendered Jenni “JWoww” Farley speechless. “What can you really say or do that makes that alright? There’s nothing. There’s nothing that could ever replace the 26 people’s lives in that tragedy,” she said.

For Sammi “Sweetheart” Giancola and Ronnie Magro, the event has left them “devastated.” “We can’t believe what happened, but our prayers and thoughts go out to the families, the victims and everybody involved with this, the whole state of Connecticut,” she said.

Adds Magro: “It’s really sad to see that something like that would happen to children. [That] a child would even do that to children.”

Meanwhile, Deena Cortese revealed her heartbreak for the deaths of the 20 innocent children and the six teachers that risked their lives to save their students.

“These kids were so little and the teachers were my age, some of them, and they were protecting and being heroes. I pray for the families and I pray to God that he just takes care of the little ones. It’s just heartbreaking, I can’t believe somebody would do something like that,” Cortese added.

Although many Americans still bear heavy hearts from the tragedy, which produced one of the deadliest school shootings in U.S. history,  DJ Pauly Delvecchio urged people to stay strong.

“Just everybody keep your head up,” he told us. “It’s a real tragedy, it’s a real sad thing. My prayers and my heart goes out to the families of everybody. I couldn’t  imagine being in the families’ shoes right now.”

And after witnessing the grim effects Superstorm Sandy left on their beloved Seaside Heights, N.J. residence, one sentiment remains clear among the Shore cast: there are truly better days ahead.

“Going further you can put your best foot forward, pray for the people that have been touched by this tragedy and, you know, hope that it never happens again,” said Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino.

Watch what the cast had to say about the tragedy above.

The series finale of the Jersey Shore airs Thursday at 10PM on MTV.

Nicole ‘Snooki’ Polizzi really does love her leopard print.

On Tuesday, the 25-year-old reality TV star shared snapshots of her most recent outfit all the way from Los Angeles, where the new mom and her Jersey Shore castmates were on hand for a press event.

“Oh hey sexual leopard heels. #wildpair,” Snooki wrote on Twitter, along with a photo of her leopard ensemble, complete with matching heels.

“Final press for Jersey Shore,” she wrote in another tweet, along with a photo from the MTV red carpet.

After six seasons of fist-pumping, club-hopping, make-ups and break-ups, the cast will bid a final farewell to Seaside Heights on Thursday’s series finale, appropriately titled “The Icing on the Cake.”

“My favorite moment is probably drinking during the day with Deena because Deena’s the only one that would drink during the day and that’s the funnest time to drink — during the day, on a nice summer day on the beach. Amazing,” Snooki told MTV this week.

What do you think will become of Snooki and her ‘Jersey Shore’ co-stars? Weigh in below — and be sure to check out Snooki’s love for leopard print in the gallery, above.

With the series finale of Jersey Shore inching closer by the minute (Dec. 20 on MTV), Celebuzz has already started to wonder where Seaside Heights’ favorite gang of misfits will wind up after everything is all said and done.

We posed this very question to one of the show’s stars, Sammi “Sweetheart” Giancola, who paid a visit to our studio earlier this week.

So, what predictions does she have for the likes of Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino and Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi?

“Mike will still be living at home with his family and his brothers and being a bachelor, still getting with grenades,” she quipped.

“Nicole will probably be having, like, 10 kids running around all over the place,” she added.

What about the rest of the cast? Find out in the video, above.

Meanwhile, Sammi also saved room to talk about the end of Jersey Shore, plus the many products she has launched since she was catapulted into TV super-stardom. (See the full list of her products on her official website.)

For the full rundown on everything Sammi has to offer, check out the videos, below.

Things are getting heated in the Jersey Shore household.

With two episodes left until the series finale, Celebuzz has your exclusive first look at how the hit MTV show will wrap up after six seasons.

Concerned for Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi‘s pregnancy, Jenni “JWoww” Farley decides to call up her BFF’s fiance in hopes of convincing him to spend more time with the mom-to-be. However, things to go according to plan.

In their heated phone call, Jionni LaValle confronts the 26-year-old Guidette about a recent sit-down she shared with roommates Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino and DJ Pauly Delvecchio, saying that JWoww has been “talking s***” when she told the guys that she believes LaValle doesn’t spend enough time with his gal.

“I’ve been here every single weekend,” LaValle told JWoww during their confrontational phone call. “Two or three times a week since I’ve been here.”

“You’re looking for your friend. I understand that,” he continued.

See how the rest of the conversation played out in our preview — above.

Celebratory cocktails and tasty treats — such are the downfalls for weight-watchers during the holiday season.

Just two months ago, Jersey Shore‘s Deena Cortese revealed her newly slimmed-down shape after dropping 15 pounds and two dress sizes. Now with yuletide festivities fast approached, Cortese is committed to not falling into the holiday trap — without depriving herself all the delicious edibles.

“I have to be honest — I indulge,” Cortese told Celebuzz. “And I still indulge. I just have to watch what I eat.”

After spending her first Thanksgiving with her boyfriend Chris Buckner at home, Cortese is celebrating Christmas eve with her beau’s family. But as Americans across the country dig in on platefuls of festive fare at Christmas supper, Cortese plans to put a limit on her meal.

“I try not to eat after a certain time,” she explained. “I just try and keep it steady. That’s all I can do. I mean I struggle all the time with my weight because I’m short and curvy.”

That’s why Cortese sticks to her calorie-busting sweat sessions. ”I really just do the treadmill,” she said. “I started the gravity workout, but I haven’t done [it] in a while because I’ve been busy. It’s like an all-body workout [but] I only did it like twice a week. But most of [my weight loss] was just dieting and running for about 30 minutes a day.”

Though the holidays are a time for wish lists, Cortese feels she has all a girl could hope for. “I feel like right now, I have everything that I really want,” she gushed.

“It’s kind of hard to believe it. Sometimes I sit there and it gives me anxiety thinking, ‘This is too good to be true. My life can’t be this great.’ But it is. Now I have to just accept it, like, this is really happened.”

Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi and Jenni “JWoww” Farley are hitting the town on New Year’s Eve and hosting MTV’s Club NYE 2013. They’ll be joined comedian Jeff Dye to watch the ball drop.
