Your Favourite Whitney Memories: 'Singing At The Back Of The Bus'
Jamie Lee Curtis: Blame It On The Fame Game?
CK underwear model, "General Hospital" star and all-around Italian Stallion Antonio Sabato Jr. knows a thing or two about seduction. On "My Antonio," 13 women compete with one another (and with his ex-wife) to win his heart. In order to become the cheese on his pizza, though, they'll have to sauce through Sabato's list of turn-ons while avoiding the conversational pet peeves guaranteed to abandon amore. Here, the Rome-born bachelor shares the lines that make all Italian guys cringe.
"My Antonio" airs Sunday nights on VH1 -- though judging by his suggestions, it could also run on the Food Network.
5. "I don't like Italian food."
We take pride in the kitchen. We take pride in our country.
4. "I don't know where the Colosseum is."
We're very passionate about our homeland. People have said to me, "Where is Italy?" or "Are Italians Spanish?"
3. "New York makes the best pizza."
Come on, Italians make the best pizza. Nobody compares to that.
2. "I don't know how to cook."
I mean, there are people that don't know how to make anything in the kitchen, so don't be surprised. There are those people that don't even know how to make put together a sauce.
1. "Do you know anyone in the mafia?"
I get that one all the time!

Um, Italians are Mediterranean, not Latin. Latins are from Latin America.

Um, no. Please educate yourself. Italians are not Latino, nor are they Hispanic.
Latino:
1. A Latin American.
2. A person of Hispanic, especially Latin-American, descent, often one living in the United States. See Usage Note at Hispanic.
Hispanic:
1. Spanish.
2. Latin American: (ex: the United States and its Hispanic neighbors)
(Both definitions are from dictionary.com)
Nowhere in there is anything that could be used to infer that Italians are Latino (or Hispanic). And plenty to show they aren't.

Lynn, Italians are white as in Caucasian (same with the Greeks and other Mediterranean countries). I would know I AM half Italian. And shouting (typing in all caps) isn't going to get anyone's attention especially with a stupid statement like yours.

Italians are latins. They have more rights than anyone to be called that. The RAL LATINS are the people from LATIUN, central italy. The ones saying the intalians are not latins are the ones who really need to educate thenselves.
