A comedic entertainer future was “virtually pre-ordained” for Shore at the age of 4 as he sat on Elvis Presley’s lap while his father, comedian Sammy Shore, opened for The King in the early ‘70s. Shore had his own show on MTV in 1990, “Totally Pauly”, an HBO special in 1993 “Pauly Does Dallas,” and movie deals with the likes of Disney. Film roles include “Encino Man,” “Son-in-law,” “Bio-Dome” and “In the Army Now.”

"Around the same time as his father opening for Elvis, Pauly's mother, Mitzi, and father opened The Comedy Store on Hollywood's Sunset Strip, giving their son the rare opportunity to hang out and be inspired by such rising talents as Robin Williams, David Letterman and the late Sam Kinison, who became his mentor. At 17, Pauly began writing and performing his own material, creating the persona of "The Weasel," a character that quickly appealed to young audiences," according to the events' page.
