The arrest of Snooki :
Her claim to fame is as a reality TV personality, first on MTV's "Jersey Show" and later on "Snooki & Jwoww". And she made some big bucks doing it, earning $150,000 per episode for appearances such as this:
Elizabeth "Snooki" Polizzi was born in Santiago, Chile and was adopted when she was six months old by Italian-American parents. She was raised in Marlboro, New Jersey and got her nickname in middle school.
Her weight's fluctuated greatly. She weighed only 80 pounds in high school because of an eating disorder. She later found her appetite…
…but famously lost 42 pounds in 2013 after delivering her son, Lorenzo.
In 2011, Snooki teamed up with "Jersey Shore" alum Jennifer Farley, better known as Jwoww, for their own, two-woman show.
As part of the program, her belief that she was of Spanish ancestry was disproven and it was shown through DNA testing that she is part Romani (Gypsy), Slovak and Russian.
Snooki's also appeared in wrestling related events and as a guest on various talk shows.
Her best known legal entanglement happened fittingly on the Jersey shore, in Seaside Heights, New Jersey when she was arrested for disorderly conduct, disturbing the peace and criminal annoyance. When two of the three charges were dropped as part of a plea bargain, Snooki was fined $500 and ordered to perform community service.
The judge in the case called her "Lindsay Lohan wannabe". In fact, her arrest was taped for an episode of "Jersey Shore."
