Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi Says she's Retiring from "Jersey Shore"

It sounds like Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi has had enough of "Jersey Shore".
“I have to do what’s best for me at the moment, and I am retiring from Jersey Shore,” Polizi announced on today’s episode of the It’s Happening With Snooki & Joey podcast. “I am not coming back to Jersey Shore [Family Vacation] for a Season 4 if there is one.”
Polizzi went to say there are many reasons why, but the bottom line is, “I just can’t do it anymore.”
“When I leave my kids and I film the show, I want to have a good time, and I’m putting myself out there and I just want to come off as a good person,” she continued. “And lately on the show, it’s just been very dramatic.”
She added that "Jersey Shore" is about family and having fun and lately everything has been “so serious” with fans turning against certain cast members.
“That’s just not how the show works, and that’s how it’s becoming,” she said saying she doesn’t like the direction the show is taking. “I don’t want that… and I don’t like the person I’m being portrayed as, and this is getting to be a little too much.”
Snooki also alleged that both she and her children have received death threats.
“I’m getting death threats with the kids and my store,” she said. “People want to picket it, and they want to boycott it and are leaving reviews that I have bugs in my store… It’s just a lot, and it’s not something that I signed up for with this show… I need to exit myself from the situation. I don’t like the narrative of anything. So I’m removing myself.”
Despite all of that, Snooki claimed that there are “no hard feelings when it comes to the production” or the network.
“I love MTV, that’s my family,” she said. “They’re going to be my family forever. Hopefully I can work with them more.”
