Snooki and Deena Cortese are just "little girls getting drunk".

The Jersey Shore stars are famed for their wild antics on the hit MTV show.

The troublesome twosome who renamed themselves Team Meatball in season four - are perhaps the housemates that enjoy partying the most.

However, Deena says their bad reputation is unfounded.

"We're so harmless, and I hate when people are like, 'Ugh, they're terrible,' " Deena told MTV News.

"No, actually we're just little girls just getting drunk and having a good time. We never hurt anybody. We really are harmless, and we're like little flies that you're like, 'you're annoying,' you know? So I love Team Meatballs."

Deena loves having fun with Snooki real name Nicole Polizzi - in Jersey.

The petite brunette thinks it's great that they have created many funny memories throughout the series'.

"I would say in Jersey, Team Meatballs really did what we had to do," she explained.

"We had so much fun. I think some of the best memories were with Nicole just being Team Meatballs, running around and being silly, and that's us."
