Someone Proposed To Snooki?

Mark Lorenz

You might’ve caught on that Jersey Shore is a guilty pleasure here among the staff at Manolith, with the core of us being both simultaneously mortified and captivated – the way only contemporary television can make you.

One of the show’s breakout stars, Snooki – real name Nicole Polizzi – has had a notorious history of having bad relationships. Her previous boyfriends have been after reality show fame, pieces of Polizzi’s ass, and now, her boyfriend has proposed to her after only dating her for two weeks. Two weeks. Have you ever wanted to marry a girlfriend you’ve had after (...)

Foursquare and MTV Team up for First-Ever Cause-Related Badge: STD Testing

Brenna Ehrlich


“STD testing center” seems like number three on a list of “Embarrassing Places to Check in on Foursquare,” but this September, MTV and the geo-location service are aiming to quash that stigma by offering a badge to all those who get tested as part of MTV’s GYT: Get Yourself Tested campaign.

The GYT campaign marks a milestone for Foursquare, which has never offered a cause-related badge before.

MTV launched GYT in April of 2009 as part of a partnership with Kaiser Family Foundation titled “It’s Your (Sex) Life.” The initiative seeks to help young people become more aware of (...)

Hey Foursquare junkies, here’s another merit badge to add to your digital belt: MTV has teamed up with Foursquare to award users who check in to a music venue with the 2010 MTV VMA Moonman Badge.

To get in the running for the prize, all you have to do is follow MTV on Foursquare, and then check in (...)

Dancing With The Stars Recruits Bristol Palin And The Situation

Mark Lorenz

I thought she’d been banned from dancing for doing the horizontal tango too often.

Dancing The Stars will prove to be a tiny bit extra clusterhumpy this season. Because of the cast.

It’s the most popular show on television, recently usurping the crumbling and increasingly socially irrelevant American Idol – people like watching half-celebrities dance.

But the cast this year is a tiny bit iffy. Joining the regular dancers will be a swarm of controversy – as Mike ‘The Situation’ Sorrentino will be dancing alongside Bristol Palin. I’d make jokes about a star from Jersey Shore joining forces alongside the (...)
