New Jersey considers 'Snookiville Law'

New Jersey towns could soon get help paying the extra costs of having drunken reality show stars wandering their streets.

The proposed "Snookiville Law" would let townships license reality show productions and levy fees on them to pay for additional police to control the cast members and the crowds drawn by the shows' cameras, New Jersey Assemblyman Ronald Dancer said.

The legislation is named for Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi, star of MTV's "Jersey Shore," who was arrested for disorderly conduct in Seaside, New Jersey, two years ago, Dancer said.

While "Jersey Shore" is in its last season of taping, Snooki and co-star JWoww (Jennifer Farley) have been producing a spinoff show in Manchester, which is near Dancer's central New Jersey district.
