I have yet to be able to say I've heard of a single one. So much for the concept of influencers (at least for those like me).

So, I guess that can include ignorance of the world of megamillionaire DJs too.

He has a co-residency at the Las Vegas super club Zouk, along with arguably the most famous commercial techno/trance DJ in history, Tiësto. They get paid $250K per set.

I've no idea who most celebrities are and when I actually bother to find out, I regret the time I wasted doing it.
