Mark Ronson was picked on in school by bullies who teased him over his nickname, “Wrong way Ronson”.

He was given the name after he accidentally ran in the wrong direction around a racetrack on the school’s sports day.

He says, “I was nine and I was jibed for years.”

Kids can be cruel, but look who’s having the last laugh now.

Celebrated DJ Mark Ronson upset Hollywood superstar Charlize Theron at a recent party – after he snubbed her requests to play reggae music.

The producer was performing a set in Milan, Italy, and was twice approached by a member of the Charlize’s entourage telling him that she wished to listen to her favorite genre. But Ronson refused the requests, insisting the slow-beat musical style would ruin the party atmosphere he had struggled to create.

The South African beauty was so enraged, she complained to the club’s bosses. Ronson tells Britain’s OK magazine, “I was DJ-ing in Milan and it had taken a while to get everyone on the dancefloor. I finally did and then this guy runs up to me and says, ‘Charlize Theron wants you to play some disco reggae.’ I didn’t even know what that was meant to be so I ignored it. “Then 20 minutes later the same guy says, ‘Charlize wants you to play some dancehall reggae.’ I knew if I played that it would clear the dancefloor. Then Charlize came up to me herself and asked why I wasn’t playing it. “It was all a bit weird, she nearly got the poor guy fired who was running the party!”

I agree with Mark, Reggae does slow down the dance vibe and it would have cleared the floor. If she was being so petty about the music being played, she should’ve just went home and listened to it there.

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes have asked Mark Ronson to DJ at Suri’s second birthday party. Suri turns two on April 18th and the couple are planning a huge bash to mark the occasion.

Mark Ronson was the official DJ when Tom and Katie got married on November 18, 2006. Reportedly, he impressed the groom with a re-worked version of the Top Gun theme song.

Brit Awards winner Mark Ronson has hit out at the organizers of the Grammys for not letting celebrities drink alcohol at the ‘music Oscars’. The producer/DJ admits he had much more fun at the Brits – because he was allowed to booze.

He says, “They don’t serve booze in the Staples Center (where the Grammys were held). At those awards thingys in Europe, they encourage you to get tanked.”
