Snooki bags $32K for Rutgers speech

How long does it take you to earn thirty-two thousand dollars?

If you’re a social worker or perhaps a teacher, maybe a whole year. If you’re a daycare worker, wiping snotty noses and spending lengthy shifts changing the diapers of other people’s kids, maybe two years. If you’re Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi of Jersey Shore- you could make that doing a single speech at Rutgers University in New Jersey.

Snooki, during her highly-paid appearance, discussed several taxing topics including her hair poof and what inspires her in life. (Her answer: “being tan.”) Of the poof, Snooki said:

“The poof is its’ own living form, it’s my trademark but people always expect it,” said the 4-foot-9-inch Polizzi. “It’s a summer hairstyle, so if I want to Snook the night, I’ll wear the poof.”

Nobel Prize winner Toni Morrison is scheduled to speak at the school’s commencement ceremony in May, and is actually receiving a fee $2,000 lower than Snooki’s.
