Mike’s reply tweet included the iconic GIF of him from Jersey Shore Season 2 when he called Angelina Pivarnick a “dirty little hamster.” Ria didn’t reply or react to the tweet, leaving many fans confused about Mike’s comments in the first place. It wasn’t until a few days later that Ria explained the entire situation.

‘Chicks in the Office’ podcast clarifies what Ria said that upset Mike ‘The Situation’ 

Ria finally clarified why Mike was seemingly upset with her on Twitter in the March 20 episode of the Chicks in the Office podcast. “Guys I got in trouble,” Ria says in the episode. “I upset the cast of Jersey Shore and you know what? I’m OK because I have said many, many, many times how much I love them and how much I love the original Jersey Shore.” 

According to the Barstool celebrity, the cast of Jersey Shore saw a clip of her explaining “an MTV problem, not a Jersey Shore problem.” She added: “MTV just needs to … what happened when they created all these different shows. We want more of that. I also said if I was them, I’d keep getting paid.” 

Mike wasn’t happy with the comments Ria made presumably about wanting the original series back instead of Jersey Shore: Family Vacation. Apparently neither was the rest of the cast.

“Actually, none of them were happy with me,” Ria added. “I got dirty little hamstered, and I didn’t respond.”

Why Ria didn’t respond to Mike ‘The Situation’s tweet 

As for why Ria didn’t address the tweet until three days later, she said: “I figured, ‘What’s the use of going back and forth with these people?’ I’m not taking it back. I stand by what I said and I also stand by the fact that I said I loved them multiple times.”

It’s unclear if Mike heard what Ria said about her Jersey Shore comments.
