Normally, we wouldn’t suggest taking advice from Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi, but if she’s giving you advice about a reality show, you should probably listen. The Jersey Shore icon recently revealed how she gave some advice to a certain Real Housewives of New Jersey alum, that went ignored. That friend was Traci Lynn Johnson.
Traci should have listened to Snooki Polizzi …
Traci, better known as Tiki Barber’s wife, was on Season 12 of RHONJ. She picked the absolute worst time to join the franchise and probably said a total of ten words the whole season. She was such a nonfactor that the editors literally clipped her right out of the reunion. You couldn’t help but feel bad for her.
According to Nicole, none of that public humiliation would have happened to Traci if she had listened to her advice. During a recent episode of Two Ts in a Pod, she revealed that she told Traci not to join RHONJ.
“She asked me if she should do it. And I’m like, ‘Girl. No.’ Because Traci is just such a nice person. And I knew she wasn’t going to like it,” Nicole admitted.
It turns out she was right. Traci apparently “didn’t like” her experience on Housewives. Part of that was probably because she found herself caught in the middle of Melissa Gorga and Teresa Giudice. That’s not a fun spot for anybody.
Nevertheless, Nicole noted that Traci is still one of her “best girlfriends.” But, don’t expect the two of them to anchor the potential RHONJ reboot. That ship has sailed for both of them. Plus, Nicole knows all of the drama isn’t something she could handle.
“I’m like a positive person. I like getting drunk, having fun, and going to bed,” Nicole joked.
Real Housewives of New Jersey is currently streaming on Peacock.
