Pauly D hit enormous fame amongst young people overnight as one of the cast members of the MTV reality series "Jersey Shore" in 2009. Pauly D said he was chosen for the show not for his music but because of his look. A casting director sent him a MySpace message asking for his number, then subsequently sent a camera crew to Rhode Island to film a day in his life. Six months later, Pauly D was cast on the show, and he was met with major fandom. In 2011, he won the Teen Choice Award for Favorite Reality Star: Male. At the height of "Jersey Shore," Pauly D was making a reported $150,000 per episode.

Pauly D released a single, "Beat Dat Beat (It's Time To)," in 2010. In 2011, he announced a pending three-album deal with 50 Cent's G-Unit Records and G-Note Records. This deal was later confirmed by 50 Cent. In 2010 and 2011, after his success with "Jersey Shore" had raised his notoriety, he was nominated for America's Best DJ competition. In 2011, he announced that he would be opening for Britney Spears on her "Femme Fatale Tour," and in 2012, he began collaborating with Big Sean.
