Jersey Shore's "Situation" Inflated Ego Caused Problems While Filming in Miami

via Interview

Pictures like this one should cut anyone's ego down to size.

​The Miami-set season of Jersey Shore will be dropped onto the world in exactly a week, but one thing audiences won't see in the next installment of the pop-culture train wreck is acknowledgment of the cast's growing fame. Producers want to keep the illusion the castmates are the same random, nonfamous guidos they always were. But Mike "the Situation" Sorrentino's inflating ego caused problems on the set, according to a report. 

While filming a scene in Miami for Season two, Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino reportedly began discussing how his name had popped up on Jeopardy!

"Tell Mike to stop drinking his own Kool-Aid!" executive producer SallyAnn Salsano reportedly yelled off-camera.

The MTV show's producers reportedly do not want to focus on the cast's growing celebrity status.

So if the show is going to ignore the castmates' fame, I guess the season won't likely include South Beach locals' negative reactions to their temporary new neighbors, or the rush of publicity-hungry club owners pronouncing to anyone who will listen that the cast is banned from their clubs simply because it's the cast of Jersey Shore.
