Paolo Andrea Di Pietro is an Italian singer, actor, and Gaikokujin Tarento (foreign talent) who is based and works extensively in Japan, often known mononymously as Paolo (パオロ). Born on November 8, 1986, in Milan, Italy, he has a background as a formally trained opera singer, having studied at the Milan Conservatory and making his operatic debut in the title role of Mozart's The Marriage of Figaro in 2012. After graduating from the University of Milan with a major in English and Japanese studies, he moved to Japan in 2014, where his career diversified significantly. In Japan, Paolo has become a familiar figure, known for his appearances in various media, including TV shows, commercials (one of his early comedic commercials went viral), and films like the recent 2025 comedy-drama Rental Family, where he plays a "Handsome Actor." Beyond live-action work, he is a prolific recording artist and lyricist, lending his distinct voice and Latin language expertise to numerous anime and video game soundtracks for globally recognized franchises. His notable vocal credits include works for Dragon Quest: The Adventure of Dai, Overlord, and multiple entries in the Final Fantasy series (including Final Fantasy VII Rebirth and Final Fantasy VI Pixel Remaster), as well as promotional songs for Genshin Impact.
