Ronnie Ortiz-Magro first experienced fame in 2009 when the original Jersey Shore reality TV show swept the nation.
The chosen cast members living in a shared house in Seaside Heights introduced fans to the Gtl lifestyle that is now engrained in pop culture history.

It turned away from the classy mold of a high-end reality series and focused on a group of Guido friends that captivated its audience.

Ronnie, even then, was a toxic person, and his off-again-on-again relationship with Sammi undoubtedly displayed that.
Beyond that, the way cast members thought of women, the unhealthy binge drinking and tanning, and physical fighting were just some of the controversial moments in the show.
Locals were infuriated, especially Italian ones, because it did change...

Jersey Shore stars Pauly D and Mike ‘The Situation’ Sorrentino seemed to be somewhat opposites of each other in the reality show’s early days. Even when it came to dating, their two approaches to seducing women couldn’t have been any more different.

It was a novel idea for MTV to reunite the cast of Jersey Shore in 2018 for a spinoff series, Jersey Shore: Family Vacation. Now, six years and seven seasons later, it’s time for the series to end.
Why it may be time for ‘Jersey Shore: Family Vacation’ to end
Jersey Shore: Family Vacation reunited the beloved cast of the original MTV juggernaut for the first time in six years. The idea was exciting, and catching up with the cast was entertaining.
However, as with any reality television series, Jsfv relies on storylines to entertain viewers. Season 6 delivered just what fans wanted: a fresh storyline celebrating Sammi Giancola’s return for the first time since 2012.

Reality TV star Nicole Snooki Polizzi formed a quick and tight bond with her Jersey Shore family. But Mike Sorrentino once accidentally caused a rift between himself and his co-star that he might’ve thought was irreparable.
Mike Sorrentino’s drug-use ended his friendship with Snooki Mike ‘The Situation’ Sorrentino of ‘Jersey Shore’ | John Lamparski/Getty Images for Empire State Realty Trust
Sorrentino famously had severe substance abuse problems that interfered in both his professional and personal life. The actor reflected how he always had drugs on him in his younger years, spending $500,000 on his self-destructive habit.
“When you think of that number, when you hear that number, that’s a good college fund right there,” he once told Entertainment Weekly. “I gotta just be accountable and be like, ‘Yeah, that happened.’ I was wild. I was careless. I was reckless, and I fell prey to drug addiction, and in...

Jersey Shore: Family Vacation is back with an all-new season on Feb. 8. And it picks up right where it left off, with the potential for a Sammi Giancola and Ronnie Magro reunion. Of course, anyone who kept up with the original Jersey Shore cast knows the messy past Sam and Ron have, and Sam made it clear toward the end of last season that she’s in a good place and has no interest in seeing her ex. But the new trailer suggests there will be a lot of interaction between the two.
However, not all fans are buying it. Some think MTV is using “clickbait-style editing” to make it seem like there is a major reunion between Sam and Ron — but that it won’t end up happening.

Sorrentino and the rest of the Jersey Shore cast didn’t make too much money for the show at first. Speaking with Instyle (via People), Snooki revealed that she and the others were only paid $200 a week. But that was a lot of money for the star back then.
“I had never gotten that much in a week, like, every single week, because you usually get paid every two weeks. That was crazy for me,” Snooki said.

Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino has lived by one mantra for the last eight years: The comeback is always greater than the setback. Sorrentino, who starred on MTV’s Jersey Shore from 2009-2013 and now stars on the spinoff series Jersey Shore: Family Vacation, has certainly seen his share of ups and downs in his own life.
These days, Sorrentino has built himself a successful, sober life with his wife, Lauren, and their two children (and a third on the way!). At one point, though, Sorrentino was spending plenty of time with his brother Frank. But now, he won’t even let Frank see his kids.

Jersey Shore star Mike Sorrentino opened up about his struggles with addiction.
Sorrentino sat for an interview with Entertainment Tonight ahead of his upcoming memoir, Reality Check: Making the Best of the Situation — How I Overcame Addiction, Loss, and Prison.
“I was a young and wild, careless kid, and once you gave kids millions of dollars and Ferraris and Lambos and girls screaming my name and yes-men everywhere, and it was hard to turn that off,” he recalled. “That was my problem for many years — how do you turn off the excess?”
“And I think it wasn’t just my problem,” he continued. “Most people in our world or the celebrity world or in the entertainment world have a problem turning off the excess button.”
Sorrentino said that the financial success of Jersey Shore was “like gasoline on fire” for his addiction problem and reflected on the amount of money he made from reality television.

The Jersey Shore family has expanded quite a bit over the years, and it stands to continue growing!
Premiering in 2009, the reality show introduced fans to a group of friends who have kept the world captivated ever since. While their initial show ended in 2012, they got back together again for Jersey Shore: Family Vacation in 2018.
