You can’t fake being real in Las Vegas and Vegas Pauly C is your living proof.
The local content creator blew up almost overnight by doing the one thing most influencers won’t: telling the truth. He calls out casinos, breaks down the numbers, and explains how Vegas really works, from the gambler’s math to the boardroom decisions.
Pauly’s not your typical 20-something TikTok star. He’s 60 years old, sharper than ever, and running circles around most of the Vegas social scene. He’ll roast a $4.3 billion resort one day and analyze stock values the next – all while admitting he was banned from Resorts World at the time.
He became infamous after a viral rant outside Resorts World, where he tore into their business model and parking fees. That clip hit millions of views, but what most people missed is what came next: a phone call from Alex Dixon, the resort’s then-president, trying to make peace. Pauly picked up – and the two squashed the beef on the spot. When Dixon was fired just 112 days later, Pauly C didn’t hold back. “They never even gave the guy a chance,” he said.
He’s brutally honest about what works and what doesn’t in this town – whether it’s casino comps, $90 Janet Jackson tickets, or six-to-five Blackjack. His followers love him because he’s not performing for anyone. As he puts it, “Don’t send me down that path, you don’t want to know me down that path.”
Pauly C’s success isn’t about algorithms or sponsorships. He never charges for videos, preferring to help small local businesses for free because it “feels better.” He’s open about his ADHD, his low-dopamine drive, and his obsession with numbers, which he’s turned into content that actually teaches Vegas locals something real about money and the city around them.
From blackjack tables to club stages with The Chainsmokers, Vegas Pauly C went from being banned to being invited. Now, when he’s backstage at Wynn or livestreaming from a nightclub, he’s not there to flex, he’s there to show everyone else what it looks like. “It feels better to be there for the people,” he said.
For a guy who never chases the spotlight, it’s ironic how bright it’s shining on him now.
