Chaos at Christmas show after member of ‘Jersey Shore’ star Angelina Pivarnick’s group allegedly punches little person dressed as teddy bear

The Jersey Shore came to the North Pole — with ugly results.

Page Six is told that longtime “Jersey Shore” star Angelina Pivarnick was part of a group that wrought havoc at a Christmas-themed nightclub, ruining a stage show for other guests and harassing performers. One of them even allegedly punched a 3′ 6″ actress dressed as a teddy bear.

We’re told that in the end, event organizers called the cops about the group.

An attorney for Pivarnick — who appeared on two seasons of the MTV phenomenon and its spinoff, “Jersey Shore: Family Vacation” — told us that the reality star was aware of a rumpus at the event, but claims that she had nothing to do with it.

“Angelina attended the event with friends and had a wonderful time, spending most of the evening engaging with fans and taking photos,” lawyer John Zidziuna said, “At no point did she act inappropriately or touch anyone… While there were others at the venue whose behavior required police intervention, the police body cam footage and venue video footage will clearly show that Angelina was not involved in any misconduct.”

At the “Santa’s Secret” immersive attraction in Chelsea, guests wander freely in a “winter wonderland” before discovering the entrance to a “speakeasy” where there’s a bar and naughty, festively themed performances on stage.

Several sources told us that Pivarnick and the crew arrived around 9pm one night last week and that some members of the group appeared “hammered.”

At one point during the show, there’s a “walk-through,” where Christmas-y characters interact with guests.

Castmember Katrina Kemp, who identifies as a “person with dwarfism,” told Page Six that she crossed paths with the rowdy gaggle during that segment, and that they left her feeling “completely non-human.”

“They were calling me the ‘M’ slur [and] then threatening to fight me once I wanted to end the interaction,” Kemp told us.

Kemp then claims they punched and squeezed her stomach, which forced her to come out of character. “I had to take my mask off and ruin the magic [of the show]. I said, ‘Don’t touch me!… And they started cursing me out and calling me rude and a bitch,” she said.

Kemp, who has, coincidentally, worked for “Jersey Shore” creator Sally Ann Salsano in the past, claims to have recognized Pivarnick in the group, but was unable to say which member of the posse attacked because she was wearing her mascot head during the alleged incident.

“They were like zoo animals,” Kemp said, “No respect for any of the performers, people who have been on national tours, Broadway, burlesque- and drag-legends.”

Kemp also claims Pivarnick asked show-goers and staff, “Do you know who I am?”

Sources also told us the group danced on tables and interrupted a live band.

The behavior was allegedly so unruly that event organizers had to call security about them, but the show’s producer, Brandon Voss of Voss Events, told us Pivarnick’s party refused to leave.

“We called NYPD to get [them] out. When she saw uniformed officers, they left,” he told us.

A spokesperson for the NYPD confirmed there was a 911 call for a dispute at the venue, but they didn’t provide any more specific details.

Pivarnick’s attorney Zidziuna said in a statement: “This story is completely false and appears to be a clear attempt at creating a clickbait headline.”

He said that she “attended the event with friends and had a wonderful time, spending most of the evening engaging with fans and taking photos” but that “at no point did she act inappropriately or touch anyone.”

“The allegations are baseless. While there were others at the venue whose behavior required police intervention, the police body cam footage and venue video footage will clearly show that Angelina was not involved in any misconduct,” he said, “The facts will speak for themselves and will ultimately support legal action by Angelina once these allegations are proven false.”
