In Hollywood, you can't huck a fistful of coke in the air without dusting a name-dropper. So when you walk into Brooklyn Projects skate shop on Melrose, and overhear owner and NYC native Dominick DeLuca spouting off about who he's partied with, your eyes might roll. But when Scott Caan pops out, with skateboard, you realize he's not just blowing hot air.
A former VJ for MTV's Headbangers Ball, DeLuca runs three Brooklyn Projects stores, is "Head of Propaganda" for WESC, runs the door at L.A. hotspot Nacional, and was recently heralded as one of Los Angeles Confidential Magazine's "Top 100 People to Know in Hollywood." When it comes to young Hollywood, DeLuca slyly professes that whoever it is, "I've either hung out with, smoked a joint with, or fucked 'em."
Those words can be held against any of the regulars in his shop: Paris Hilton, Rachel Hunter, Pharrell Williams, Michael Rapaport, Jay-Z, and Jessica Alba. Speaking of Dunks, guess who Katie Holmes hit up to get a special somebody a pair of Tiffanys? That's right. And Dom would like to add, "Tom's a size 8!"
