In a role that is made for a famous party animal and successful DJ, Geordie Shore star Ricci Guarnaccio is the new face of Popworld TV, having teamed up with the famous party bar chain for a 'dream job,' that will take him all over the UK.
Ricci caused quite a stir when he made his entrance on Geordie Shore back in 2012, even getting engaged on the show, before he made a rather fraught exit. He was one of many cast members past and present to come back into the fold last year, for the massive reunion celebration in Newcastle; going onto star in the new series, which saw he and co-stars go on a luxury group holiday to Portugal.
Away from Geordie Shore, Ricci has become recognised as a top DJ and producer, releasing a string of tracks like summer 2022 smash Never Let You Go and getting airplay on Capital.
