When Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi was on The Wendy Williams Show she responded to the criticism stating:
"The Italian, whatever, national, whatever their organization is, they don’t understand that 'guidos' and 'guidettes' are good-looking people that, you know, like to make a scene and be center of attention and just take care of themselves... They are old-fashioned. They don't know that; they think it's offensive, because maybe in their time it was offensive, but now it's kind of a compliment. So they don't understand that and that is what we are trying to say. They are way overreacting to the show. We're 22 to 29 just having fun at the shore. They are just taking it way out of proportion."[46]
When Polizzi was asked about the advertisers pulling their ads Polizzi responded, "I just have one thing to say to Domino's, Dell, UNICO and all the other haters out there, F*** you! If you don't want to watch, don't watch. Just shut the hell up! I'm serious... F*** you!"[56] In response, UNICO said in a statement "She is not an embarrassment to Italian Americans – she is actually an embarrassment to the entire human race!!!!"[56] A rep for Domino's said in response, "Our first response was, 'What a classy young lady—her parents must be so proud...There's no need to get into a war with this young girl, because tick-tock, her fifteen minutes are almost up."[57]
