Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi is pregnant and engaged, said UsMagazine.com. The Jersey Shore star confirmed that she will welcome a baby later this year with fiancé Jionni LaValle. With Snooki three months pregnant, MTV executives are in “crisis mode” over how the pregnancy will affect a spin-off of Jersey Shore currently being filmed, said People.com. “They’re trying to hide [the pregnancy] because it would greatly affect the creative direction of the show,” said one insider.
