‘Jersey Shore’ cast member Snooki finally confirms she is pregnant. The portly reality TV star graces the cover of the March 16 issue of US Weekly.

After weeks of rumors, Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi confirms exclusively in the new Us Weekly that she is 15 weeks pregnant — and engaged to her beau of one and a half years Jionni LaValle. We think the baby’s father is Lavelle, but it really could be anybody’s.

Snooki says she got the news that she was pregnant following a drunken binge on New Year’s day. She had gone to the doctor because of what she thought was a lingering hangover.

The new issue of US Weekly hits newsstands Friday. It will be interesting to see how many copies of the magazine sells.
