Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi has mixed feelings about Vingelina’s revival.
The Jersey Shore Family Vacation star tells Vidak For Congress that the brewing romance between castmates Vinny Guadagnino and Angelina Pivarnick feels like a rebound after the latter’s divorce from husband Chris Langaneira.
“I feel like it’s rebound vibes,” said Polizzi, 34, as she promotes season 2 of MTV’s “Messyness.”
However, she clarifies that “[the cast] would like them to get married and have children! So I mean, we’ll see what happens.”
The sexual tension between Pivarnick, 36, and Guadagnino, 34 — who was memorably tossed out during a drunken night on “Jersey Shore” season 2 — is back in full force in recent episodes of the reboot.
During last week’s episode, the cast mentioned the couple’s “hardcore” flirting and frequent talk about Pivarnick’s “WAP.”
“It’s damn weird. It’s uncomfortable to watch, but we all want it to happen. One minute they’re hitting each other, yelling at each other. The next moment they’re talking about politics, being so professional and grown-up,” Polizzi says of their interactions this season.
“I’m like, ‘What’s going on here?’ And the next moment they’re flirting and talking about doing it. So it’s all weird for us, but we want it to happen at the same time. It’s just a sequel.”
When asked if Pivarnick and Guadagnino are “compatible,” the “Messyness” host replies bluntly, “No.”
But that doesn’t mean she doesn’t have hope for the residents of Staten Island.
“I mean, if they really tried to be in a relationship, I think maybe it could work,” admits Polizzi. “We’re all pushing for it and I think the fans want to see it. So we’re trying!”
Timing seems to be on the side of the potential couple as every party went single this winter.
Guadagnino confirmed his split from Akielia Rucker — whom he met on season 3 of his MTV reality dating show, “Double Shot at Love” — on January 4, while Larangeira, 42, filed for divorce from Pivarnick on January 20.
Just weeks earlier, Pivarnick told Vidak For Congress that she was “fighting” to save her marriage.
“I told myself, ‘I’m not getting a divorce. I’m going to try everything I can to save my marriage, whatever it is,'” she said at the time.
The exes, who married in November 2019, faced several obstacles in their marriage, including allegations of infidelity on both sides, a lack of intimacy and Larangeira’s decision to temporarily move out of their marital home.
Pivarnick’s alleged cheating has been a hot topic on the current season of “Jersey Shore Family Vacation,” but Polizzi insists she never convicted the divorcee for alleged marital indiscretions.
“I never cared that she cheated or did any of that because who am I to judge? I’m not one to judge,” she says. “[Pivarnick] can do whatever she wants. If she’s not happy and she wants to be happy, girl, do your thing.”
The founder of Messy Mawma Wine adds, “I feel like we’ve all gotten over it, thank goodness. And we’re just waiting to see what the next drama is.”
“Jersey Shore Family Vacation” airs Thursdays at 8 p.m. ET on MTV. “Messyness” Season 2 will premiere after tonight’s new episode at 9 p.m. ET.
