The gang can still hang! Nearly a decade after Jersey Shore’s debut, the cast talks to In Touch about their triumphs and temptations.

MTV More than eight years after their hit show debuted, Jersey Shore’s crazy family is all grown up but just as wild

It’s T-shirt time again! Jersey Shore cast members Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi, 30, Jenni “Jwoww” Farley, 32, Paul “DJ Pauly D” Delvecchio, 37, Vinny Guadagnino, 30, Deena Cortese, 31, Ronnie Ortiz-magro, 32, and Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino, 35, are hitting the clubs again in MTV’S Jersey Shore: Family Vacation. But a lot has changed since we first met the dysfunctional gang of guidos and guidettes in 2009: Deena wed Christopher Buckner last year, The Situation has been sober for two years and is engaged to longtime girlfriend Lauren Pesce — and some of them are parents! Snooki has Lorenzo, 5, and Giovanna, 3, with husband Jionni Lavalle; Jwoww has Meilani, 3, and Greyson, 2, with husband Roger Mathews; Pauly D has Amabella, 5, with Amanda Markert; and Ronnie just became a dad to Ariana, 1 month, with Jen Harley ( from whom he had a very messy public split in April). One thing that didn’t change? The show is a massive hit, and another season has already been ordered. “We are all grown up but when we get together, we always pick up right where we left off,” Jwoww tells In Touch. Snooki puts it more bluntly: “We’re still hot messes!” Here, the cast tells In Touch’s Diana Cooper all the behind-the-scenes details of their big reunion, how they handled Miami’s temptations and where they’re headed next.

Who’s changed the most? JF: Mike, for sure! He is such an inspiration, and we are all so proud of where he is in his life. MS: I’m really excited to introduce to America a new side to The Situation and to show the hard work and progress I’ve done in the last couple of years on myself. PD: He is nice now! DC: He’s been sober for two years, but he still has his… NP: His cockiness. DC: He’s still a little cocky, but you know he’s just a lot better person altogether.

How did everyone manage temptations from the opposite sex in Miami? DC: I wasn’t even looking. NP: I’m married. I don’t even look. No, that’s disgusting. JF: Haha, no, I am so past that. DC: We looked more at the girls than

the guys! [ Laughs] MS: We were using the hashtag “#Nottodaysatan” because myself and Vinny both were in very serious relationships. VG: So if we would see a thong with a big butt, we would look at each other and be like, “Not today, Satan.”

Ronnie, you seemed to come the closest to cheating… RO: I didn’t do what you think I did. You put yourself in a position, but it’s how you come out of that position is what matters, and I come out on top. PD: I was the only single one in the house! [ Laughs] NP: Yeah, and he hardly hooked up with anyone because he was trying to find his wife. DC: Yeah — he’s particular now. NP: He’s picky! PD: My daughter made me more selective — not just anyone can meet her. But I have such amazing things going on in my life and want someone to share it with.

How has being a father changed you? PD: I miss her voice when she’s gone, running around, being loud. When she’s gone, my house just echoes.

Vinny, you split from your girlfriend after you got home. Do you wish you’d been single during filming? VG: No, not at all. She’s a great girl. She honestly still has my heart in a lot of ways.

Who was the most obnoxious in the house this time? JF: We were all obnoxious at one point or another. PD: Deena — she really doesn’t like to be away from home. VG: We love everyone, but Ronnie can get a little obnoxious, [ like] the way he clogs up every toilet bowl. Sometimes when he gets drunk he goes on these benders where we’re like, “Dude, pull yourself together!” Deena, too. She gets mean and starts screaming sometimes. MS: She can be second place. First place is definitely Ronnie. We love him, he’s our brother. But this time around, he had a lot going on in his life. Next season, he’ll have a little bit of redemption and become better and not bitter. RO: I fight with everybody. I’m just a very vocal person and I express how I feel. You’re going to say “F--- you,” and then we’re going to hug after, and that’s what it is.

You’re a dad now. Is it true you were nervous about having a girl? RO: I feel like I’ve done too many seasons of Jersey Shore and that I know what girls can be like. [ Laughs] But no, I’m actually really excited. I have a lot of younger sisters.… I feel like she’s going to make me softer, more normal and human. You’ll be able to show how much you’ve changed next season. Where would you all like to go? PD: Vegas would be dope! One huge party. and they can all come to my DJ gigs. JF: I would love for it to be back in Jersey, where we started. NP: Yes! Bring it back to Jerzzz. VG: Put the guidos back in their natural habitat! ◼
