Snooki first addressed her health publicly in an emotional TikTok video shared in January 2026.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m scared and freaking out<\/span><\/a>,\u201d Snooki said, noting she decided to make the PSA for \u201cawareness to stay on top of your appointments because I was not great with that.\u201d<\/p>\nShe continued, \u201cI\u2019ve been having issues with getting abnormal results. Pre-cancerous results. Pre-cancer cells in your cervix. I\u2019ve been dealing with this for probably three or four years now.\u201d<\/p>\n

Snooki further reminded followers to get their pap smears, an annual test that can detect cancer.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s why I\u2019m literally telling you guys to get your pap smears done. I\u2019m 38 years old. I\u2019ve been struggling with abnormal pap smears for like, three, four years now,\u201d she said at the time. \u201cAnd now look at me, and instead of just, like, putting it off because I didn\u2019t want to go, and it hurt and I was scared, no, I just went and did it, [and] cancer\u2019s in there, and it\u2019s only stage I and it\u2019s curable.\u201d<\/p>\n
Two days after her announcement, Jersey Shore<\/i> costar Mike \u201cThe Situation\u201d Sorrentino<\/b> posted a message of support.<\/p>\n
