He might not be Snookin' For Love any time soon now that he and Jersey Shore's Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi have split, but Emilio Masella is just fine with that — he's got his own dating show on the horizon... Fist Pumping for Love! "It’s about me searching the country for love, in search of a real Italian woman," he tells OK!.
So we wanted to know, of course, what is a "real" Italian woman, by Emilio's definition?
"It is someone that can cook, someone that can actually speak Italian, and have a nice big family, well, someone who is family-oriented," he explains to OK!.

"No, not at all," he says when asked if there's a chance they'll reunite on the upcoming chance of Jersey Shore.
