Before his "Dancing With The Stars" debut, "Jersey Shore" star Mike 'The Situation' Sorrentino was on Long Island this weekend showing off his new Bentley. Sorrentino managed to turn the purchasing of a new car into both a party and a money-making opportunity, showing up at the GLO Nightclub to show the 'Unique Situation' Bentley to the public. At the nightclub in Westbury, New York two fully customized Bentleys were presented to Mike and his brother, Marc by Will Castro of Unique Autosports. Both cars are used Bentleys purchased by Mike Sorrentino. According to TMZ, Sorrentino bought a 2008 Bentley coupe for himself and a slightly less expensive 2008 Bentley for his brother for a total of around $100,000.

The Situation's mother was on hand as the Bentleys were presented. The Daily Mail reveals that The Situation does not drive a stick. Why an automatic? "He needs to keep his hand free for the ladies." Sorrentino also used this occasion to give his sister Melissa a new, white Range Rover.

South Beach Bar Serves Up Jersey Shore's Ron Ron Juice

by Deidre Woollard (RSS feed) —

You drink mint juleps to watch the Kentucky Derby, what drink celebrates the second season of MTV's "Jersey Shore?" That would be Ron Ron Juice, the red and sweet cocktail that cast member Ronnie Ortiz-Magro likes to whip up before a night on the town. The new season takes place in South Beach and one of the places that the cast partied, Ocean's Ten, will feature a version of the drink called Abuelo's Ron Ron Juice using Ron Abuelo Añejo, a blend of aged Panamanian rums, in place of the drink's usual vodka. It's available through August 26 and costs $15 for a 36-ounce version during the day, when the bar only serves oversized cocktails. The same size drink is $30 at night or $10 for a 12-ounce version.

Want to make your own version? Check out this MTV video. According to Ronnie himself "you've got the watermelon, the cherries, some ice, cranberry juice" and of course plenty of vodka to start off what often becomes a "filthy night." Housemate Pauly D refers to the drink as the "root of all evil" because of its tendency to sneak up on you.
