Jersey Shore stars' new reality: Unemployment

Claim to fame: Being a booze and silicone-fueled, hard-punching, club-hopping, dog-loving dance queen. A self-proclaimed "praying mantis." Both her ex-boyfriend, who doubled as her publicist, and her current boyfriend, who is engaged to be her husband, were on the show, in all their tattooed, hair-plugged glory.

Before the Shore: She was an online peddler of skimpy clothes and other products.

Side projects: She's done paid appearances, co-starred in the spin-off show Snooki and Jwoww, and authored a book: The Rules According to JWOWW: Shore-Tested Secrets on Landing a Mint Guy, Staying Fresh to Death, and Kicking the Competition to the Curb.

Post-Shore career prospects: She never stopped peddling products through her website, so that's her most obvious career path. She currently offers a Jwoww-branded perfume and a mysterious product called Revolution AbCuts Sleek and Clean.
