EW.com has learned that pneumatic Jersey Shore star Jenni ‘J-Woww’ Farley, who recently told Ryan Seacrest that she had turned down an offer from Playboy, was approached by NBC about appearing on the new season of Celebrity Apprentice, “along with a lot of others,” according to a network source. The 25-year-old Shore star did not ultimately wind up joining the cast of Apprentice, which includes LaToya Jackson and Star Jones and is currently shooting. Farley recently wrapped season 3 of Jersey Shore and told Seacrest she hopes to appear in season 4.
Farley’s rep did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
UPDATE: According to a network source, NBC is also in preliminary discussions for a special episode of the game show Minute to Win It featuring the Jersey Shore cast, though no deal has been set. Minute features contestants attempting to win money by completing comical tasks with household objects — picking up a tortilla using swim flippers and placing it on a plate, for example — in 60 seconds or less.
wow, the word ‘celebrity’ is used pretty loosly!
It just wrapped season 2, not three. I guess if Mike can make a fool out of himself on DWTS, J-Woww can do the same on The Apprentice. She will add nothing to that show as he did for dancing.
I find it interesting that her last name if Farley, so much for all the hype of the Guidette thing!
They wrapped shooting season 3. Season two is being aired now from Miami. And comon Sitch did better then Bolton. I agree that JWow would probably not fare to well in the celebrity parrentice. She may knock somebody out in the boardroom.
they went ahead and continued on with Season 3 as well. That is why months back they fought over money.
Loosely, like her!
Aw, I like JWoww. I think she actually would have done pretty well on The Apprentice. Not win, but I think she’s smarter and more business-savvy than people realize.
WHO?
celebrity and these people…the word is not what it used to mean anymore…get drunk and make money —opps you are a celebrity…have 6 babies at a time and opps…you are a celebrity….etc…etc…etc…sad
Not ANOTHER Celeb Apprentice! I hate those editions, regular ones are the best.
wish she didn’t turn down playboy.
I love Minute to Win it! Can’t wait to watch the new holiday themed episodes starting next Tuesday!
Catch all new MINUTE TO WIN IT..tuesday DEC 7th 8pm/7c on NBC
