Snooki, Jenni 'JWoww' Farley and Deena Cortese gave a poorly-received speech at Angelina's wedding

Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi, Jenni "JWoww" Farley, and Deena Cortese gave a poorly-received speech at Angelina Pivarnick's wedding to sanitation worker Chris Larangeira. The bridesmaids' speech, which included jokes like "you're the trash to our bags," the "lice to our hair," and the "dump to our island," was not well-received by the crowd, who booed loudly. Angelina initially laughed along with the speech but later became agitated and threatened to "go outside and flip out" after noticing that her husband, Chris, seemed miffed.

Angelina later explained in a confessional that she knew her new husband was extremely hurt by the jokes and that it was the "wrong f---ing place" and "wrong time" for such a speech. She felt disrespected and questioned why her friends would call her those names on her wedding day, the one day she wanted to be normal.

The speech caused a rift between the women, with Deena threatening never to film with Angelina again and Snooki expressing disbelief at Angelina's reaction. The drama ultimately led to Snooki's decision to quit the show, as she tearfully announced, "I think this is it. This is not fun."

Angelina laughed along at first, but later got upset and stormed out

At first, Angelina laughed along with the jokes made by Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi, Jenni "JWoww" Farley, and Deena Cortese during their bridesmaid speech at her wedding. However, she soon became upset and stormed out, threatening to stop filming for the show.

Angelina's initial reaction to the speech was to laugh along, but as she noticed her husband Chris's reaction, she became agitated. She threatened to "go outside and flip out," while Chris and others tried to calm her down. Angelina was particularly upset because she felt that her friends had intentionally insulted her on her wedding day. She later explained in a confessional:

> "I know, in my heart and in my brain, that my husband that I just married is extremely hurt that these girls are saying this about his wife right now...It's the wrong f*ing place. It's the wrong time. You don't do this at somebody's wedding."

Angelina's sudden change in mood took her friends by surprise, with Snooki expressing confusion over why Angelina was upset:

> "I can't believe this is a thing, that she's like, pissed off, because literally two seconds before she was happy and she loved the speech. And now she's freaking out and I just don't know what happened. I don't know what flipped her switch."

As the drama escalated, Snooki became increasingly frustrated and ultimately decided to quit the show, telling Deena, "I'm quitting, I think. I think this is it. This is not fun."

Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi was left astounded by Angelina Pivarnick's reaction to her wedding speech. Snooki, along with Jenni "JWoww" Farley and Deena Cortese, gave a speech at Angelina's wedding to Chris Larangeira, which was full of jokes. The speech included jibes such as "you're the trash to our bags", "the lice to our hair", and "the dump to our island". While Angelina initially laughed along, she soon became upset when she noticed her new husband's reaction.

Snooki was taken aback by Angelina's response, especially as she felt the speech was in line with what the bride had requested during her bachelorette party. She said: "I can't believe this is a thing, that she's like, pissed off, because literally two seconds before she was happy and she loved the speech. And now she's freaking out and I just don't know what happened. I don't know what flipped her switch."

Ultimately, the drama of the situation, along with Snooki's desire to spend more time with her children, led to her decision to quit the show.

Angelina and Snooki have since made amends, but their relationship remains strained

Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi and Angelina Pivarnick have had a rocky relationship since the second season of Jersey Shore, with their feud becoming one of the most well-known in reality television history. The tension between the two was palpable from the start, with Snooki choosing to ignore Angelina when she arrived at their home in Miami. The drama escalated when Snooki alleged that Angelina was talking about her behind her back, and the situation only worsened when Angelina hooked up with Vinny Guadagnino, leading to a physical altercation between the two women that resulted in Angelina leaving the show.

The bad blood between Snooki and Angelina continued into the Jersey Shore spinoff, with Snooki shocked to see Angelina sitting with the rest of the cast. She accused Angelina of selling a story to the tabloids that called her ugly, and while Angelina denied these allegations, she later apologized. Things seemed to be improving between the two, as Angelina even invited Snooki to her wedding. However, Snooki's bridesmaid speech at the wedding angered Angelina once again, causing a serious rift in their relationship.

In the time since the wedding, Snooki and Angelina have made amends, but their relationship remains strained. Snooki took a break from the show for a season, and when she returned, the two women sat down to have a long-overdue conversation about the wedding drama. Snooki apologized for her speech, explaining that it was meant to be funny and never intended to hurt Angelina's feelings. Angelina acknowledged that the joke "landed wrong" and apologized for her own actions. The two women even toasted to "being friends again."

However, their reconciliation was short-lived, as Snooki soon discovered evidence of Angelina's infidelity and brought it up during their conversation. Angelina denied the allegations and became upset, feeling that her castmates were intruding in her business. Despite this, the two women appeared to be on somewhat better terms, with Snooki joking that she'd "rather cut [her] left tit off than ever talk about this again."

While Snooki and Angelina have made an effort to put the past behind them, their relationship remains strained due to the ongoing drama and misunderstandings between them.

Snooki has since revealed that she left the show due to the drama and her desire to spend more time with her children

Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi, best known for being a cast member of the MTV reality show Jersey Shore, revealed that she left the show due to the drama and her desire to spend more time with her children.

In the season finale of Jersey Shore: Family Vacation, Snooki, Jenni "JWoww" Farley, and Deena Cortese gave a speech at their co-star Angelina Pivarnick's wedding, which caused a lot of drama and tension. The speech, which included jokes like "you're the trash to our bags" and "the lice to our hair", was not well-received by the bride, Angelina, or the guests, who booed loudly. This led to a lot of conflict and emotional distress for Snooki, who eventually made the decision to leave the show.

In an episode that aired in December 2019, Snooki announced her decision to quit the show, saying, "I'm quitting, I think... I think this is it. This is not fun." She elaborated on her decision in a confessional, expressing her love for her co-stars and the show but acknowledging that the drama and tension took a toll on her.

In addition to the drama, Snooki also cited her desire to spend more time with her children as a reason for leaving. She shared that leaving her kids to film was "really, really hard" and that her priorities had changed since becoming a mom. "I hate being away from the kids, I don't like partying three days in a row, it's just not my life anymore," she said. "And I want to be home with the kids. I don't mind a here or there going to a dinner or whatever, but it's just really hard on me to leave the kids and film the show."

Snooki further elaborated on her decision on her podcast, "It's Happening with Snooki and Joey". She explained that she needed to move on and that the show was no longer aligned with her interests and priorities. While she acknowledged that leaving was a difficult decision, she stood by it, saying, "I needed to move on... It's just not for me anymore. Drama has never been my thing."
