JERSEY SHORE's Michael 'The Situation' Sorrentino to Share His Story of Success

Michael Sorrentino, better known as "The Situation" from MTV's #1 cable reality show, Jersey Shore, is scheduling speaking engagements exclusively through American Program Bureau (APB). While Sorrentino has become a worldwide pop and cultural icon, he also holds two additional titles: successful entrepreneur and recovering drug addict. Now, he is ready to share his inspirational story of pursuing one's dreams, encountering the light and dark sides of fame, and facing life's struggles head-on to become a stronger person.

While most audiences identify Sorrentino as the happy-go-lucky housemate always intent on working out and looking good; he soon entered the dark world of addiction after severely injuring his back during an on-set accident. He was prescribed prescription painkillers, but before long, "The Situation" was suffering from a never ending cycle of pain and painkiller abuse.

Fortunately, Sorrentino bravely sought the help he needed and is now enjoying the road to recovery. Sorrentino's humorous and informative programs offer an in-depth look at how this worldwide star followed his passion, fell down hard, and picked himself up. Part lecture and part Q&A. Sorrentino speaks from an honest place, sparking important discussions about drug use, recovery and fame.

Sorrentino's charismatic delivery makes him a popular guest among colleges, associations, health groups and his many fans around the world.
