Jersey Shore’s Snooki urges trolls ‘to stop commenting on people’s bodies’ on social media: ‘Who are you to call people pigs and fat and disgusting?’
Snooki took to social media on Wednesday urging people to cease commenting on people’s bodies.
‘Who are you to call people pigs and fat and disgusting and [say], “Your body looks terrible?”‘ the 35-year-old reality star said.
The MTV personality, whose real name is Nicole Polizzi, said in a TikTok clip that she empathized with people with body issues, and has dealt with them herself.
‘I know it’s an issue for a lot of people,’ the Jersey Shore star said. ‘Men, women, everybody – it’s an issue – and it’s called weight. I have struggled with my weight my entire life.’
Snooki said she had been ‘underweight’ during her teenage years, and at the age of 21, when she began appearing on the TV series, chose to ‘enjoy life’ without constantly focusing on what she was consuming.

‘High school? Not great,’ she said, adding that she ‘wasn’t eating, underweight, had no energy. It was getting scary.
‘So high school was not a good place for me with weight. I wanted to be size zero and so skinny. And I fit in the jeans but, oh my God, I was so sad and not eating and no energy.’
Snooki, who’s mom to son Lorenzo, 10, daughter Giovanna, eight, and son Angelo, four, with husband Jionni LaValle, said that she’s always been ‘confident’ with her body.
‘I know that I’m beautiful,’ she said. ‘I’m amazing, no matter what size I am.’
Snooki said she had been on the receiving end of nasty comments from trolls, and urged people who might have something sour to say to keep it to themselves.
‘If you think those things, which I’m sure a lot of people have opinions – everyone has an opinion about everybody – if you want to judge people’s looks and people’s bodies then do it from the comfort of your a**hole mind,’ Snooki said.
She offered an alternative – for people to call their ‘a***hole’ friends ‘to gossip about someone’s weight’ – ‘but don’t comment it on the Internet.’

Snooki said that ‘people are sensitive,’ particularly those who ‘have had eating disorders and trouble with their body and image and … finally are starting to love themselves.’
She added, ‘This video is for everyone out there – stop commenting on people’s weight. Who the f*** cares? As long as you’re a good person and you feel good in your own body … so stop commenting on people’s bodies. It’s not nice.’
She wrapped up the clip, saying, ‘Please, I love you – be kind to each other … s**t!’
