Snooki blasts body shamers in viral video: ‘People are so f – – king rude’
It’s been weighing on her.
Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi calls out body shamers in a 3-minute clip that’s gotten 1.9 million views since it was posted Wednesday to TikTok.
“It’s a huge issue and people need to love themselves — even when hater-trolls tell them they’re ugly and worthless,” the “Jersey Shore: Family Vacation” star told The Post on Thursday. “F – – k the weight bullying. People are so f – – king rude.”
Polizzi, 35, has been targeted by weight watchers since she joined the “Jersey Shore” cast in 2009. Now she’s shaming those who scrutinize others’ waistlines.
“Who are you to call people ‘pigs’ and ‘fat’ and ‘disgusting’ and [say], ‘Your body looks terrible?’” she asked.
“Don’t comment [on other people’s bodies] on the internet because people are sensitive. Especially people that have had eating disorders and trouble with their body and image and they finally are starting to love themselves,” she continued.
The “Meatball” podcaster says if you must judge someone else’s looks and body, then “do it in the own comfort of your a – – hole mind. Or just like, call somebody. Call your a – – hole friend to gossip about somebody’s weight.”
She also got vulnerable about her own journey, revealing, “I have struggled with my weight my entire life.
“High school? Not great. 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 0 and so skinny. And I fit in the jeans but, oh my God, I was so sad and not eating,” she added.
Polizzi admitted that once she turned 21 and started to film her reality TV series, her perspective on her body changed.
“I wasn’t working out really, but I was like, you know what, I’m going to enjoy my life,” the mother of three shared.
Polizzi confessed that she gained weight during “Jersey Shore,” but it didn’t faze her.
“I feel like I was always confident in my skin no matter what size I was,” she explained.
The mom to sons Lorenzo, 10, and Angelo, 4, and daughter Giovanna, 8, says she groans at comments like, “Oh my God, [you] gained 5 pounds. You’re a fat pig. You’re disgusting. You gained weight. Wow, what happened to you?” because it harms the person who may be struggling with self-love.
“So this video is for everyone out there. Stop commenting on people’s weight,” Polizzi pleaded.
“As long as you’re a good person and you feel good in your own body, who cares? So stop commenting on people’s bodies. It’s not nice.”
Polizzi concludes her message by saying, “Please, I love you. Be kind to each other.”
