TV Reality Show Contestant

The Resume

    (circa 1982- )
    Born in Staten Island, New York
    Appeared on MTV's controversial show 'Jersey Shore' (2009)

Why he might be annoying:

    What's 'the situation'? His six-pack abs, which get every girl's attention.
    There were rumors he worked as an exotic dancer (he says he worked at a topless male revue).
    He helped (re)popularize the club-tastic fist pump.
    G.T.L., baby! (The initials for his daily routine of gym, tan, laundry.)
    Believe it or not, he wanted to turn his reality tv fame into an acting career.
    He could be described as egotistical and cocky, or simply as, a 'guido.'

Why he might not be annoying:

    He worked as an assistant manager at a gym prior to appearing on 'Jersey Shore.'
    He gave late night talk show host Conan O'Brien the Jersey shore nickname 'The Solution.'
    About his self-confidence, he said: 'If you don't love yourself, who will?'
    Though 'straight as an arrow,' he's flattered when gay guys think he's hot.
    Along with Snooki, he was one of the standout personalities which helped 'Jersey Shore' gain popularity.
    He considered trademarking 'The Situation' after 'Situation' merchandise started popping up all over the place.
