MTV?s Jersey Shore Boys in G.A.Y. “Situation” [PHOTOS]

This has gots to be the most hilarious reality show dupe EVER! The boys from MTV’s “Jersey Shore” go shirtless (as they often do) for what they thought was a harmless cover… the joke was on them when they discovered they’d been duped into posing for “The Queer Issue” of a well known gay tabloid!

According to the NYPost, the guys of MTV’s hit show were more than pumped when the Village Voice asked them to pose in all their muscled glory for the cover, but sources say they had no idea it was for the annual “Queer Issue.”

Vinny Gaudagnino, Ronnie Ortiz-Magro and Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino agreeably ditched their shirts and flexed their abs — but spies say the trio were totally PUNKED (pun intended):

“They didn’t know,” said a source. The photo hits stands today under the banner “Queer Issue” and above the headline “The Guido Ideal” — a story about “gay Jersey guidos on the down-low.” Our source added, “The paper’s not saying the cover boys are gay, just that that they’re hot.” The issue includes a sidebar on the guys and the new “Jersey Shore” season.

An MTV rep didn’t return calls.

There is no way these dudes didn’t know that these pics were G.A.Y…. absolutely no-effin way!

Nipple rings?? Ummhmmm… He gay.

and “The Situation” in this pink v-neck shirt showing his cleave is a dead give-away! These dudes are G.A.Y.!

Case closed!! At least we know they have no problems getting in touch with their feminine side…. and I’m sure they just collected a whole new fanbase.
