Snooki (center) posted this picture on Twitter, with the message, ‘Getting told why we are bad for jersey. Amazing.’ The photo was taken during her first-ever meeting with New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie.
“Jersey Shore’ star Snooki came face to gut with one of her largest critics Friday: New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie.
The awkward encounter occurred — where else? — on the boardwalk in Seaside Heights, where the Jersey icons were filming separate segments for NBC’s “Today” show.
“I just wanted to meet you and just hope you start to like us,” said Snooki, ice-grilling the governor.
“Well, we’ll do our best,” Christie responded in a moment captured on video by the Asbury Park Press.
The loud-mouthed diva also asked the girthy gov, “Why are you standing so close to me?”
