Will viewers of The Real Housewives of New Jersey see a Jersey Shore alum on the show sometime in the future? If new housewife Siggy Flicker has her way, yes. In an interview with Wetpaint Entertainment , posted on Thursday, Siggy talked about getting Sammi “Sweetheart” Giancola on Real Housewives , which besides Siggy currently stars Teresa Giudice, Jacqueline Laurita, Melissa Gorga, and Dolores Catania.
Sammi rose to fame with MTV’s Jersey Shore , which ran on MTV from 2009 to 2012. Having Sammi do another reality TV stint, this time on Real Housewives, isn’t as big of a stretch as it may seem. Siggy and Sammi, along with TV host Clare Galterio, are actually co-hosts of the podcast radio show Just Sayin ‘ . Siggy revealed during her interview that she has actually asked Sammi to film with her. While the answer is a “no” for now, Siggy is still hopeful it’ll turn into a “yes” in the future.
“I’ve asked her. I love Sammi. I would love for Sammi to do it. Right now, Sammi’s got her own projects in the works but I would love to work with Sammi. I would love to be with her. Just being with her is very natural and very easy.”
Siggy went on to explain how the 29-year-old Sammi would fit right in with the New Jersey housewives.
“When I met Sammi ‘Sweetheart,’ I fell in love. She’s a sweetheart but a grounded girl, like her mother did a phenomenal job raising her. And when I say this I mean she doesn’t bulls**t you, she stands up for what’s right and wrong. She’s not aggressive in any way. I just really enjoy her. What you see is what you get. I mean Sammi’s in my house at least once a week with no makeup on. She’s lying on my couch. She’s beautiful inside and out. That’s what I like. What you see is what you get. And that’s what it is also with Teresa, with Melissa, Jacqueline, and Dolores.”
A week ago, Sammi “Sweetheart” Giancola actually attended one of the Real Housewives of New Jersey Season 7 premiere parties. As previously reported by the Inquisitr , while Melissa Gorga and Teresa Giudice were hosting a party and live-stream at Melissa’s house the night Season 7 premiered, Jacqueline Laurita, Siggy Flicker, Dolores Catania, as well as “friends” of the housewives, Kathy Wakile and Rosie Pierri, were at another premiere party. Jacqueline posted a photo of herself with Sammi and Deena Nicole Cortese, who was on Jersey Shore beginning from the third season.
There has been talk of a Jersey Shore alum joining The Real Housewives of New Jersey before. In 2015, there were rumors that Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi might be joining the cast after Melissa posted a photo of herself hanging out with Snooki. Melissa revealed that Snooki is a neighbor of hers.
Melissa and Snooki apparently had so much fun together that they decided to continue the fun into the night at Melissa’s house , where Melissa’s husband, Joe Gorga, joined them.
In October 2015, Snooki addressed the rumor that she’s joining The Real Housewives of New Jersey in an interview with Entertainment Tonight . Snooki at first said that she would never do the show.
“Nope. Never. I would be honest and say yeah, but no. I think it’s just because I’ve hung out with Melissa [Gorga] a little bit. If you hang out with a housewife, you’re automatically a part of the show. But, no.”
Yet Sammi “Sweetheart” Giancola’s former co-star later said that she may consider doing it when she’s older.
“I’m only 27. I have other things going on. I feel like, if I’m a little bit older, I would consider it. But I’m still young.”
