"Several \"&lt;strong&gt;Jersey Shore&lt;/strong&gt;\" cast members are putting the screws to MTV -- refusing to renew their contracts until they get more money -- and we're told, it's all because this upcoming season could be their last.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt=\"0331_jersey_shore_cast_exd_mtv\" src=\"http://ll-media.tmz.com/2011/03/31/0331-jersey-shore-cast-exd-mtv-credit.jpg\" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sources close to the cast tell TMZ, the \"Jersey\" stars in question realize the joyride might be coming to an end -- and they want to milk MTV ... while they still can.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another disputed point -- the number of personal appearances, which can pay up to $40,000 a pop. MTV is adamant about limiting that kind of exposure, but the guidos and/or guidettes in question wanna get that cheese.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So far, we're told only Ronnie has signed -- and while the rest plan to follow suit (duh) ... they better do it fast. Season 4 is scheduled to start shooting in Italy within the next few weeks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Calls to MTV weren't returned.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;!-- relatedlinks --&gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
