DJ Pauly D

Paul Michael DelVecchio Jr., known professionally as DJ Pauly D, is an American DJ, television personality, and producer recognized for his contributions to the music and entertainment industries. DelVecchio began DJing at 16 and became a professional by 18, drawing early inspiration from his father, a local DJ in Rhode Island. He developed a style that blends hip-hop, house, and EDM, performing at local clubs before gaining national attention through appearances on "Jersey Shore."

DelVecchio's role as a main cast member on "Jersey Shore" (MTV) brought him widespread recognition in the reality television landscape.

After "Jersey Shore," DelVecchio signed a three-album deal with G-Unit Records and G-Note Records, becoming the first cast member from the series to secure a record contract. His debut single, "Beat Dat Beat (It's Time To)," gained popularity in clubs, followed by releases such as "Back To Love" featuring Jay Sean, which reached number four on the iTunes Dance Chart. DelVecchio has collaborated with artists including Fabolous, Jay Sean, Jim Jones, and Snoop Dogg, and joined Britney Spears on select dates of her Femme Fatale Tour with Nicki Minaj.

DelVecchio holds Las Vegas DJ residencies with Tao Group, Hakkasan Group, and MGM Nightlife, performing at venues such as Marquee Nightclub, OMNIA Nightclub, Jewel Nightclub, TAO Beach, and Hakkasan. He has been named to Forbes' World's Highest Paid DJs list multiple times and has performed at major music festivals, including Electric Daisy Carnival and Ultra Music Festival.

In addition to his music and television work, DelVecchio has appeared on reality shows such as "Famously Single" and "Double Shot at Love with DJ Pauly D and Vinny." He has a significant social media presence and has participated in campaigns for brands including Burger King, Pepsi, 7-Eleven, and Coin Master.
