Notoriously tanned reality star Snooki Polizzi recently came clean on the rumors that, yes she is pregnant. It appears Snooki’s maternal instincts are kicking in early. In fact she’s skipping out on fatty foods during her pregnancy, not just to stay fit but also because apparently “she would die” if she got as big as Jessica Simpson during her pregnancy.
I would die if I were her size… She said she indulged in everything that she wanted. I’m trying to eat healthy – fruits, lots of jelly and Italian ices. Nothing fattening at all.” Snooki told US Weekly.
The Snooki & JWoww VS. The World star’s designs on her own weight are likely a reflection of her recent weight loss using Zantrex-3 that had her at a petite 98 pounds last year. But why does she need to go throwing stones at Jessica Simpson for it?
According to Simpson, the extra weight has more to do with “a lot of amniotic fluid” than irresponsibility. We can’t say for sure. All we can say is that Snooki has already thought through a few things besides her own weight. She reportedly said of her unborn child:
I won’t be spray tanning my baby. My baby’s gonna be naturally tan. If you look at me and Jionni, we’re very dark, so luckily the baby will be very dark.
It’s good to know she’s got her priorities in order. [via US Weekly]
Why do some people have to put down others in order to build themselves up?

But… don’t you need to eat fats in order to have a healthy baby? Fruit and lots of Italian ices? Sure, fruit’s healthy, but you have to eat more than fruit to stay healthy, especially if you’re pregnant. I’m no expert, but there are fats that are GOOD for you, like in avocados and olive oil. Shouldn’t she, oh, I don’t know, be eating a balanced diet?
guest
You’re having a baby. A living human being is growing inside of you.
Get the fuck over your weight obsession, geez.
guest
She is a fucking idiot. Straight-up. OMG Snooki, now that you’re skinny, you are sooooooooo much better than everybody else. Jesus. I need to go barf now, my gag reflex is killing me.
guest
Also…”luckily” the baby will be very dark…? What the hell is that about? Oh, thank God my baby will come out pre-tanned. *FACEPALM*
guest
She’s an idiot. If she will just die if she gains that much weight, lets give her cheeseburgers and get it over with.
I think Jessica Simpson looks adorable. I mean, she’s big but she all pregnant and happy.
guest
Uh, wasn’t she anorexic? I’m not defending her but you don’t just lose that mentality when you get pregnant.
guest
I agree with @daydreams_nightmares@xanga - you don’t lose your eating disorder just because you get pregnant. She didn’t have to name Jessica Simpson as an example, but It’s Snooki, we don’t expect her to be tactful.
guest
why is she famous?
guest
because Snooki is a dumb bitch. jessica simpson looks sooo cute in her pregnant body!
guest
So? It sounds like someone asked her what she thought of Jessica and she gave an honest answer. Would you rather her lie and say she looks great? I’d die too if I were as big as her.
guest
Snooki shouldn’t have said those things and should definitely be eating a more balanced diet, but Jessica Simpson is a really huge pregnant lady. It almost scares me.
guest
Further proof of how much of a moron she is. And now she will be a mother… yay.
orchid / 197 posts
just because both parents are tan does not mean the baby will definitively be tan. this is basic genetics.

Snooki haters lol…. you don’t get a double chin from “a lot of amniotic fluid”, just saying!
I’m gonna take this one step further and say I’d die if I got pregnant and there was no way out. You guys can have all the babies you want, it’s just not for me.

Yeah, I HATE to defend Snooki, but Jessica has turned into a whale. Being pregnant is not an excuse to eat whatever you want
guest
Everyone bashing Jessica because “she looks like a whale or is really big” one question…. Have YOU been pregnant? Clearly you do not know what your talking about.
guest
@jaimecaitlyn@xanga - Oh please. She got big way before she became pregnant! Nobody is perfect but that’s just the truth.
rose / 834 posts
@jaimecaitlyn@xanga - My cousin was 98 lbs before she got pregnant. She stayed skinny as her uterus ballooned, and then was still thin after her baby popped out. Some people say “good genes” but she also didn’t eat like a pig, which is what JS admits to doing by indulging.
guest
@jaimecaitlyn@xanga - @starcrossedloversdivine@xanga - I’ve seen plenty of (non-celebrity) women not gain astronomical amounts of weight when pregnant. Yes genetics is a big component, but a healthy diet and doctor-approved exercise goes a long way too.
guest
Soooooooooooooooo ignorant!
guest
She could have definitely used more tact when answering the question instead of hating on a bitch, but the fact is, gaining too much weight during the pregnancy can be unhealthy for the mother and the fetus. (Or at least that’s what my sister’s doctor told her when she got pregnant.) But then again not gaining enough can also be harmful. It’s a delicate balance that one can’t really judge until they’re in that position.
guest
when she wasn’t pregnant she was as big or bigger than Jessica, she should remember that she did, even before she met Gionni
guest
@daydreams_nightmares@xanga - both bolimic and anorexic :^/ not to mention she had polyphagia (when you eat eat too much)
guest
Snooki is such a cunt.
guest
besides doesn’t jelly have a lot of artificial perservatives on it? Just saying, that is not healthy either haha
ranunculus / 3457 posts
@jaimecaitlyn@xanga – You can continue mild excercise and eat healthily while pregnant. Yes you will gain some weight anyway, but you it’s not like you are guaranteed to get real fat. It’s actually NOT HEALTHY to “eat for two” while pregnant! And if you’re really concerned about it, many many women start exercising again after birth and get skinny as heck again.
ranunculus / 3457 posts
@jaimecaitlyn@xanga - And while I can’t get pregnant because I’m nearly infertile, every single woman in my family has kept herself healthy while pregnant and did not gain a whole lot of weight during or after the pregnancy itself.
guest
@Gosalyn223@xanga - yeah I thought so!
guest
Remember when she had an eating disorder? It’s not shocking that someone who had an eating disorder would hate to gain weight. It’s not something that goes away, you just eat differently to recover.
guest
I’m crying X’D
guest
Wow, and just when i truely believed that Snooki couldn’t sink any lower, she goes and pulls this. She does not have any right to be making any comments about anyone!
guest
Comparing the wop Snooki with the gorgeous Jessica Simpson? Are you all fucking serious? Bwaaaaaaaahhhhhaaaaaaahhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaa!
guest
@T0m03@xanga - Hear, hear.
guest
@Gosalyn223@xanga - Why are you mentioning ‘diseases’ when anorexia, bulimia etc. are NOT diseases? Fucking liberal bullshit, blaming people’s stupidity on ‘diseases’.
rose / 802 posts
Frankly, WHY DOES ANYONE CARE HOW BIG JESSICA SIMPSON GETS, while pregnant or otherwise? Give her a break. And maybe deal with your own issues instead of putting down a beautiful, happy woman for something YOU see as a problem.
As for Snooki, I just want to know how Lovelyish thinks this mentality means “Snooki’s maternal instincts are kicking in early.” Please.
guest
Uhm Jessica has a cute baby bump, and she’s preggo, not exactly going to be a twig. Chill out whore. -_-
guest
@daydreams_nightmares@xanga - Yeah, but the fact that she had an eating disorder means that she should know better than to make fun of someone for their body weight.
guest
i remember when snooki was pretty fat herself .. jess is pregnant..just like her. & everyone is different. just because jessica indulged in every type of food doesn’t exactly mean she won’t have a healthy baby, & she doesn’t care how she looks. she looks happy if you ask me, & she probably doesn’t give a shit about what someone like snooki says. because as much as i dislike jessica simpson, she’s worked ten times harder than snooki does to get where she is. snooki is nothing but a breakout reality star who’s famous for being publicly intoxicated on beaches & acting like a whore. i used to like her, but now my respect is dwindling..
guest
Wow, I almost wish I wouldn’t have come back to check out the comments on this after reading someone’s (really good) post about bitchy Internet commenters….here’s my honest opinion: maybe if you “would die” if you were Jessica’s size, you should experience one or the other of those. You’d rather die than be *ZOMG* fat?? Wow, fuck you.
guest
@cantbelieveitt_surveys@xanga - Snooki is a NOBODY by comparison to Jessica Simpson. If both were to go anywhere, all attention would go to Jessica, and rightfully so. Snooki is nothing more than a wop whore.
guest
@Ms_Lola_Mae@xanga - yeah, like I said I wasn’t defending her, but it explains why she’s so scared of gaining a lot of weight. I mean, there’s no need to gain as much pregnancy weight as Jessica did – pregnancy isn’t an excuse to just sit around eating because you have a baby growing inside you.
guest
She’s right. A healty baby is everything. Jessica isn’t going to lose her weight that easily. Do you really think jessica is eating right? …
guest
@daydreams_nightmares@xanga - No, it’s not an excuse to just “sit around” eating whatever you want, but people forget that women go through a lot of emotional and mental stuff when they are pregnant and not just physical. The will you had to eat healthy and exercise may not be there anymore when you are dealing with ridiculous cravings, extreme emotions leading to emotional eating, and extreme exhaustion. I mean, Natalie Portman was a hardcore vegan before she got pregnant and while she was pregnant she started eating meat because the cravings were so strong. That says a lot.
guest
“the extra weight has more to do with “a lot of amniotic fluid” than irresponsibility.We can’t say for sure” This sounds just as judgemental as Snookie, just saying.
What IF it is real fat? many women gain during pregnancy. Maybe that’s related to a lack of work out. It’s not like she’s drinking or smoking. And wasn’t she chubby (I say that in a non-judgemenatl way) before?
Anyway…I take back everything I said about Snooki potentially becoming a great mom for all we know. She’s not spray tanning her baby? Oh how KIND of her!
guest
I kinda agree with most comments so far collectively. Jessica Simpson probably is bigger than she should be, but she has always been a bigger woman. Snooki should have been more tactful, but clearly someone did direct a question to her regarding Jessica (so she wasn’t targeting Jessica, she was just answering the question). Her response might be a result of the fact that she has eating disorder(s).
Basically, other women need to not judge other women’s pregnancies. Interviewers need to stop trying to create drama. Both of them could probably be healthier in what they are eating. But their babies will probably both be fine when they pop out.

I’m small & pregnant. I wouldn’t want to look like Jessica either. Yeah you’ve got a person growing inside of you but it’s difficult to have your body change so quick. I’m sure she’ll have a trainer after the baby and be back down…as long as she’s happy…right?
guest
@Ms_Lola_Mae@xanga - If the women cannot handle the responsibility of pregnancy, then DON’T HAVE CHILDREN! It really is that simple.
guest
Some of the comments here are so vile and ignorant. Why do people feel it’s ok to bash Jessica Simpson for her weight when that’s none of your concern? Who made you people the judge of what’s appropriate during pregnancy and what’s not? How much weight a person gains while pregnant is very individual, and how much is recommended depends on your pre-pregnancy weight. There’s not one single answer to it. Just because some of you didn’t notice many changes doesn’t mean everyone else should be the same otherwise it’s fine to call them a “whale”.
Coming from someone like Snooki who’s been overweight herself, she should be more careful with her words. It’s not like her will-power made her lose all that weight. A couple of years back when the Dukes of Hazzard came out, people were all up in arms about Jessica being too skinny. Everyone was screeching and telling her to gain some weight, but when she did every loser and their brother was making fun of her. Jessica may have put on some pounds, but she can diet and she has a stunning face. Can you say the same for youself?
guest
She’s a dummy. I think Jessica looks adorable.
guest
@LegionOfLucifer@xanga - I’m not really sure what that had to do with my comment.
guest
@MyWinterBones@xanga - Amen. I can’t for the life of me figure out where all this pregnancy weight bashing is coming from. Especially since you know half the people doing the bashing have never even been pregnant before.
guest
@MyWinterBones@xanga - I think it was a bit more than a couple years ago since she pranced around in those daisy dukes… And it does appear to be true that she has gained a fair amount of pregnancy weight. To be totally truthful, she really does look awful in most of these pictures I’ve seen of her pregnant. A lot of the clothes don’t flatter her changing body at all – Like those ugly ass boots in the second photo. They make her legs look really thick and stumpy. All I’m saying is she could flatter her shape a bit more than these floor length, tent like dresses. And if she doesn’t care about that stuff, it’s all good either way. But from the way she looks in the photos above I can’t blame anyone for their comments.
Hell, I wouldn’t consider any of these comments vile or ignorant. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, right? Mine is that she does look a bitbigin these photos. My friend was pregnant a couple years back, and about two thirds of the way through her pregnancy she expressed frustration at people who tried to be so polite and pretend she wasn’t getting huge. Which she was. Because she had a baby inside of her. As in, it was more frustrating for her when people tried to tip toe on eggshells around her and tell her she’s not big at all, when she’s sitting there feeling like she should have moons orbiting her.
Hopefully this will never be something I have to worry about, because I definitely don’t want children.
guest
@blackspiders@xanga - It doesn’t matter when she walked around in daisy dukes, I was just pointing out that there was a time when even her being skinny wasn’t good enough. I’m not saying you’re not allowed to state your opinion, I hate when people bring out that old, worn-out argument to defend the hate that’s thrown out there. I respect that not everyone feels the same way I do, and of course you’re allowed to think she doesn’t look good at the moment, but there are more mature ways to say it. You don’t think it’s vile and ignorant to call people names like “whale” and “fucking planet”? Or compare Jessica’s pregnancy to your own and deem it abnormal just because she happened to gain more weight? That’s pretty uneducated to me.
Your friend might have wanted some honesty, but even you have to admit that weight is a touchy subject for the majority of us. You don’t just go up to someone and address their weight gain unless you know how the person feels about it. Sure, Jessica is a celebrity and the odds of her ever reading these comments are close to zero, but just because a person is famous doesn’t mean it’s OK to call her names or draw false conclusions based on your own experience.

She slept with Vinny on television while she had a boyfriend and she’s gonna talk smack about somebody’s weight. Seems like she should be more concerned with her own actions.

Um… In response to everyone defending Snookie because she had eating disorders. I had a mix of a few for years and have been successful at forcing myself to stop the unhealthy and addictive behavior when I found out I was pregnant and after I had her. So saying that she is like this because of the eating disorders just proves she should be giving her rights to her baby up as soon as she pops the poor kid out. If being tan is the number 1 thing, she’s not ready or mature enough to be a mother.
Also in response to the people saying you don’t have to gain much when pregnant, some people get huge for medical reasons and the ones who were already big usually either don’t show at all or they get huge. I went from 125 to 140 and in the last month due to kidney failure I went up to almost 200. i didn’t eat unhealthy or in excess. Genetics, body type and health reasons all cause women to either be big or small when pregnant. By the way, she looks hideous in the picture. Looks like a midget and Jessica looks classy. Maybe I am biased, though, I base who I’m a fan of on talent, not being a mentally unstable alcoholic.

I’d love to see some of the commenters say those things about people to their faces. 9 times out of 10, they’d chicken out becuase all they can do is talk behind people’s backs. People tend to forget that celebs are real people..you know…with FEELINGS. Think about it, would you want anybody calling you a whale while you’re pregnant? I don’t give a fuck if Snookie had an eating disorder, calling people fat is NEVER okay.
guest
Snooki wouldn’t make any money for being Snooki if she said anything different to the media. I don’t know why anyone is surprised or appalled.
guest
This is my beef with this shit … why does everyone care about OTHER people’s bodies so damn much? No need to compare, no need to bash, just worry about your damn self.

Jessica Simpson sat around and indulged on everything she wanted to eat? Well that just sounds terrible. She got HUGE during her pregnancy and it looks like she gained more than like 40 or 50 pounds which is unbelievable. I’m with Snooki on the eating healthy part but she can’t just eat tons of fruits and italian ices and jelly. Jelly is loaded with sugar that you don’t want in your body. They should both eat a balanced diet and there’s no problem in indulging but DAMN, not as much as J. Simpson did.
guest
@gniknus@xanga - Uh, how does she make any money with her remarks?
guest
@gotyefan@xanga - Then, why are you here? Hmmm?
guest
@UnconventionalButterfly@xanga - Sure it is. I’ll call a spade a spade. Do you know what this does? Makes the bitch so angry she decides to shut me the fuck up by working to lose weight. I win, she wins. What’s the problem?
guest
I hate when women throw other women under the bus to try to make themselves feel better, I’m seeing a lot of that in these comments. But jesus people, SHE’S PREGNANT. Those of you who have had children should know that pregnancy changes your body, it just happens.
@Rebekka Holman@facebook - Believe it or not, that round thing on her stomach is a baby. You may have been pregnant before, but you obviously don’t understand that every woman carries her child differently.
guest
@hot_metalhead@xanga - Ditto.
guest
Did anyone think she would become mature, intelligent, or classy just because she is spawning? Please…tacky is not erased by hormones. On the other hand, it will be amusing to watch the meltdowns she gets…with stretch marks!
guest
Now I picture Snooki eating jelly with a spoon, talking about her tan baby.
Her brain is ridiculous.
guest
@Rebekka Holman@facebook - I just don’t understand why you and many other people in this comment section are intentionally trying to be hateful. She gained some weight, so what. Also, I don’t see anywhere in the post above where she talks about eating whatever she wants, then again, I don’t really follow celebrity gossip.
Also, I didn’t say that babies and amniotic fluid caused double chins, I brought up water retention during pregnancy. That will cause someone to be incredibly bloated, I know, it happens to me every time I have to get an IV.

Why are pregnant women so concerned about their figures?
