"Jersey Shore’s" Snooki Reveals Cancer Diagnosis: “I Gotta Keep Attacking This & Everything’s Gonna Be Great”

Nicole Polizzi, best known to "Jersey Shore" audiences as Snooki, has revealed she’s been diagnosed with cancer.

In a video posted on TikTok, Snooki revealed she had cervical cancer following a recent cone biopsy.

“It came back stage 1 cervical cancer called adenocarcinoma,” the MTV star said. “Obviously not the news I’ve been hoping for, but also not the worst news just because they caught it so early. Thank freaking God!”

Snooki went on to discuss the importance of regular testing and suggested that women get routine Pap smears.

“I’m 38 years old and I’ve been struggling with abnormal pap smears for three or four years now, and now look at me,” she said. “Instead of putting it off because I didn’t want to go, because I was hurt and scared, I just went and did it. And it was there, cancer is in there. But it’s stage 1 and it’s curable.”

“So get your appointments done, bitches! I’m telling you! Once you go to stage 2, then you have to do chemo… nobody wants to do that! It’s scary. So get your appointments done.”

The mother of three said that she was now going to go to an oncologist and get a PET scan to see if the cancer had spread to other areas in her body.

“After that, I’m gonna probably get the hysterectomy,” she said. “Obviously, I think the smart choice here is the hysterectomy. I’ll still keep my ovaries, which is a good sign. But yeah, gotta get the cervix and uterus out. It all depends on the PET scan.”

She added, “A lot of women go through it silently without anyone to talk to and they’re scared by themselves. I like that we have a platform here to talk about it with each other. I appreciate all of the love. Everything’s going to be fine. I’m going to tackle this and get it done. I gotta keep attacking this, and everything’s gonna be great.”
