Whoa baby! Things are heating up on MTV as the second season of the network’s runaway hit Jersey Shore heads to South Beach for plenty of fist-pumpin’ and drunken bar brawls — but a knocked-up “guidette” may ruin the party.
MTV bosses are so thirsty for mega-drama on the new season of Jersey Shore, show producers are trying to convince one of the barfly female stars of the series– namely tattooed maneater Jenni “JWoww” Farley or pint-sized spitfire Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi — to become pregnant, tattling tipsters divulged on the pages of the April 12 issue of Star Magazine.
“Producers create much of the drama so they’re encouraging one of the female cast members to get pregnant.”
Word is the network formerly known for debuting groundbreaking music videos and lifestyle series is offering a big bonus for a baby. Producers are willing to fork over a $500,000 cash bonus (on top of the $10,000 per episode Shore stars already reportedly receive) and a MTV spinoff show to the guidette that agrees to get a bun in her oven, if Star snitches are to be believed.
The idea that MTV may be encouraging one of its breakout reality stars to have a baby for publicity doesn’t sound so far-fetched to Connecticut bodybuilder Emilio Masella. The buff hunk has been shacking up with Snooki for a few months, but he’s frightened that Jersey Shore producers will be a bad influence on his girlfriend — who will be in red-hot Florida for several weeks shooting scenes for the show.
“I’m afrad they’re gonna, like, make Nicole cheat on me or something,” Emilio remarked nervously in a chat with Star last week.
The world will see soon enough; the second season of Jersey Shore is expected to premiere on MTV this summer.
