Holy Tanning! It's the Cast of MTV's 'Jersey Shore'

MTV

Vinny

A self-proclaimed mama's boy, Vinny's mom cooks, cleans and even cuts his turkey for him. Though the Staten Island, N.Y., native finds guys with blow-outs and tans questionable, he admits to being slightly concerned that he's "the smallest guy in the house." Vinny, 21, also points out that though he might "pound his fist like a maniac" guido-style, he's also educated and went to college.
