Nicole Polizzi, known as her moniker "Snooki" from the MTV reality series Jersey Shore, embraced her OG style at the 2024 MTV VMAs.
The 36-year-old star looked straight out of 2011 in a leopard print mini dress, platform heels and her signature teased-up, "pouf" hairstyle. Her brunette locks, streaked with honey blonde highlights, were pulled into a half-up, half-down style with face-framing pieces. The mom of three also added a long black cardigan and black shoulder bag.
On the red carpet, Snooki flashed peace signs and smiled for the camera. She was also joined by her friend and makeup artist, Joey Camasta, who appears with Snooki on Jersey Shore: Family Vacation.
