OH HELL NO!

Yeah, we admit it....we've been watching MTV's Jersey Shore (basically a "Guido/Guidette" filled version of the networks' show The Real World). The main reason is because, after watching the commercial laden 2-hour premier 2 weeks ago, the cable channel has showed "upcoming clips" of cast member Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi being "knocked the eff out!" bye some guy in a club somewhere on the Jersey Shore. Well, according to an article from Us Magazine, we haven't seen this slap down (yet) because of the graphic nature of the event...

"MTV has announced that it has pulled a scene from the next episode of Jersey Shore that shows lead star Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi getting punched in the face.

In the scene - which went viral after it was previewed during this past Thursday's show - a man is seen knocking Polizzi's face back violently at a club. The New York Post has identified her attacker as New York City gym teacher Lou Ferro, 24, who was arrested that same evening for the assault (which left Polizzi, 21, with an injury to the mouth), according to the Post.

"What happened to "Snooki" was a crime and obviously extremely disturbing," MTV said in a statement Friday. "After hearing from our viewers, further consulting with experts on the issue of violence, and seeing how the video footage has been taken out of context to not show the severity of this act or the resulting consequences, MTV has decided not to air "Snooki" being physically punched in next week's episode."

The network said the episode will still make clear what events happened that night and plans to air a message at the end of the show listing available resources for those in abusive relationships."

BOO!!! WTF? This was the one scene we were waiting for!!!

Thanks to Jason for the video footage....and in other Jersey Shore news.

Or get my chest waxed.
