Cathy Horyn Takes Down Snooki: Snooki, the Jersey Shore's breakout star, is a polarizing (mini) figure. Cathy Horyn, who penned the piece, is not a fan. Harshest digs include: "Snooki is not conventionally attractive...She is busty and short-waisted with small legs; sort of like a turnip turned on its tip," and "trying to hold a conversation with Snooki is a little like getting down on your hands and knees with a child."
