Snooki's "most scandalous bombshell ever" is apparently untrue.

No meatball in the oven, so to speak.

Nicole Polizzi, unmarried star of Jersey Shore is denying a report by Star Magazine that she confided in friends and family that she's expecting and would make an announcement soon.

Boyfriend Jionni LaValle was said to be the baby daddy.

Besides an unnamed source, so-called evidence cited her mentions on Facebook that "I feel sick" followed by a tweet, "Late night craving . . . yogurt hits the fricken spot!"

Now there's proof!

The "scandalous" quote is from Star's website, radaronline.com.

But after an appearance Wednesday on the Opie & Anthony radio show, she flat-out denied being pregnant, as seen on TMZ video footage.

"No!" said Snooki, who bills herself on Twitter as "ny times best selling author, business woman, independent boss lady."

"Why are people calling me fat? It's so rude," she said, even though she recently lost a lot of weight.

She repeated the denial this morning on Live With Kelly, calling the rumors, "like crazy. . . . I definitely want kids but I'm not pregnant."

She and costar Jenni "JWoww" Farley, who were also on Good Morning America, discussed how Hoboken just shot down their hopes for a Jersey Shore spinoff featuring the two women living in the North Jersey city. But local film commission nixed the notion, based on safety and quality of life concerns, according to the mayor.

They still plan a spinoff, and laughingly said they liked the title, Snooki and Jwoww Take Over the World.
