Mike ‘The Situation’ Sorrentino Watches As Book Flops

Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino released his first book last month and it’s been a huge flop. Titled “Here the Situation: A Guide to Creeping on Chicks, Avoiding Grenades and Getting in Your GTL” the book has managed to sell just 4,000 copies in one month.

Publishers Weekly Jim Milliot told Life & Style that:

“For a high-profile author, 4,000 copies it pretty bad,” adding, “It’s definitely a disappointment to the publishing company which will probably lose money on the deal.”

Despite the huge fail of the book, Sorrentino is still scheduled to write one more book under the Gotham publishing name.

Also in stores for 2011, books by Snooki, J-Woww and Pauly D, hopefully followed by the cancellation of Jersey Shore.

US Patent And Trademark Office Denies “The Situation” Trademark Request

by Chris Franklin

Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino may be a household name among reality TV fans and sure he’s one of the highest paid reality TV stars of all time, with earnings expected to top $5 million by the end of 2010, but apparently his “The Situation” nickname mixed with his fame wasn’t enough for him to be granted a trademark on his popular name.

The US Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) rejected Mike’s request for “The Situation” name. According to TheSmokingGun.com Sorrentino hoped to trademark the name and then release a T-Shirt line.

According to USPTO, a trademark that was too similar to his own was issued to a Memphis-based clothing and shoe line in 2009.

Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino Buys Used Bentley

What does being an annoying Guido get you for your troubles? If your “The Situation” from MTV’s hit show Jersey Shore it gets you a Bentley.

Okay, so it gets you a used 2008 Bentley coupe, not a newer model, but the $100,000 price tag is still an impressive amount of money to drop on a vehicle when you’re only making $40,000 an episode on a show that’s sure to lose it’s appeal soon enough.
