DJ Hollywood Tramp, whose real name is Behrad Etemad Zadeh (also known as Berry), is a Germany-based DJ, event organizer and LGBTQ+ activist with Iranian roots. As a child, he fled with his family from Iran, a country where homosexuality is still punishable by death. Since 2010, he has been actively campaigning for the LGBTQ+ community and creating safe spaces throughout Europe with his events.
Under the pseudonym Hollywood Tramp, he has established himself as one of the most sought-after open format DJs in Europe. His mixing is an art form of its own, combining different genres, classics and modern sounds to create unique mash-ups. His creative music selection has earned him international recognition - even Tina Knowles, the mother of Beyoncé, has reposted his mash-ups.
He is known for his legendary queer event series "Gaga Club Night" and "Beyoncé Club Night", which combine a concert feeling with clubbing. His events are an integral part of the queer club scene and have been touring throughout Germany since 2022.
His talent has also taken him to the big stages: Lady Gaga booked him for her Pride Truck and he played as the opening act for Todrick Hall and Brooke Candy. He has also had the opportunity to interview stars such as Kelly Clarkson, Adam Lambert, Charli XCX and Ava Max.
With his unique style, flair for music and commitment to the community, Hollywood Tramp has established himself as a force to be reckoned with in the queer event and music scene. Hollywood Tramp shows that pop culture and DJing is more than just stringing together No.1 hits and thus creates his unique sound.
