“Jersey Shore” Cast: Parliamo Italiano!
Barbara | May 16, 2011
In a rare turn of events, the cast of “Jersey Shore” has done something close enough to be considered an academic endeavor–they have bought Rosetta Stone software to help them learn Italian so that they can blend in a bit better with their Italian neighbors this season.
Oh, who am I kidding? The “Jersey Shore” cast will never blend in ANYWHERE they go, but at least they are trying the limit the amount of feathers they are sure to be ruffling by learning a few phrases in the native tongue. Who knows? Maybe Snooki’s real talent is with languages. (Stranger things have happened.)
Jokes aside, I have to give credit where credit is due. The fact that the ragazzi are trying to learn some Italian shows that they’ve got a bit of respect for the Old Country and will at least try to use some basic phrases and vocabulary during their travels. I’ll give them some help:
Where is the tanning salon?
Dov’e il solarium?
Does my hair look OK?
I miei capelli è bello?
Yo, that girl is a grenade.
Ufa! Quella ragazza è un granata.
Study hard, guidos and guidettes…
