Pauly D of MTV's hit reality show, Jersey Shore, is being sued by his former talent agency, ICM, for $4 million dollars because they allege he stiffed them out of earnings that he made from the show, RadarOnline.com is reporting.

According to court documents, ICM alleges that Pauly D hired the agency "to represent him after the first season of the Jersey Shore when MTV refused to compensate him despite the virtually overnight success of the show. ICM went to bat for DelVecchio, successfully negotiating lucrative amendments to DelVecchio's participation with MTV. Because of ICM's efforts, DelVecchio...earns a substantial sum for each season of Jersey Shore and has endorsement deals and side-projects based on his DJ Pauly D persona."

Pauly D has earned 100-175k per episode of the show, and has received more than 600k in signing bonuses that ICM also arranged.
