'Jersey Shore' salary smackdown: Two go creepin'
Just days after "Jersey Shore's" Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino said the cast is sticking to their "Friends-style" salary negotiations for Season 2, it seems two members have gone creepin'.TMZ reports that Jenni "J-WOWW" Farley and Ronnie Magro have split from the group and accepted MTV's offer.
(Hmm, isn't it strange that Ronnie's girlfriend, Sammi, isn't mentioned here? Is there more than one split going on?)
In our readers' poll asking, "Who do you most want to see back at 'The Shore' in season 2?," Ronnie surprisingly came in first place with 29% of the vote, while J-WOWW came in last with 4%.
Reports say that MTV has offered the crew a $10,000 signing bonus and $10,000 per episode. While earlier reports stated that the network was giving the cast until end-of-business on Monday (Jan. 25) to accept the offer or be replaced, the negotiations have continued.
An MTV representative tells Zap2it that they can't comment at this time, but they will alert us when a statement is prepared. Stay tuned.

I guess J Wow didn't stir up enough drama. It's ridiculous the amount of money these folks are getting to hang out and be filmed, but at the same time I'm happy to see that the show is still going on!
I think if they're allowed to negotiate their own appearance fees they are fools if they don't sign. but hey that's just my $.02 for whatever it's worth ;)
I am shocked that Ronnie came in first in the poll. He's probably my least favourite member of the cast. And to the previous commenter he did get very doughy! Funny thing about that - the gossip that's been floating around the net is that he had to stop taking steroids so his court-ordered drug test would come back clean. When you stop taking steroids your body mass turns to fat.
The saga continues...
