Gianluca Vacchi has taken the world by storm since dancing his way onto the scene in a now-viral video with his wife Giorgia Gabriele. But what do we know about the 48-year-old? Well, aside from the fact that he’s friends with Zac Efron, the handsome Italian tycoon heads up the manufacturing company SEA Società Europea Autocaravan, and he's also a big fan of Instagram, which he uses to showcase everything from adrenaline-packed activities to his penchant for pyjamas. So here's everything you need to know about Gianluca, and his lavish 'GV Lifestyle'…
1. He's best friends with Zac Efron
The actor lived la dolce vita with Gianluca back in 2014, while holidaying with him in Italy. The duo enjoyed shirtless horseback rides on the beach, danced on tables to Jason Derulo's Wiggle and showed off their synchronized diving skills off of yachts — if that's not a bromance then we don't know what is!
At the time Zac professed his admiration for the businessman on Instagram, sharing a solo shot of Gianluca with the caption: "To my friend @gianlucavacchi – the real life 'most interesting man in the world', never above you, never below – always by your side. Luv and respect."
2. He's a lifestyle guru
When you've branded your lifestyle, you know you're doing something right! As evidenced by his social media, Gianluca lives the life many dream of, lounging on lavish yachts, riding a Harley Davidson and travelling via private jet with his Hermes luggage in tow.
Not that he's afraid to get his fine Italian threads wet. Alongside a video of him riding a jet ski while wearing a suit, he wrote: "In life it doesn't matter what you drive, is how you drive it that makes the difference. Enjoy."
3. He loves his pyjamas
Gianluca might live a life of luxury, but he can also appreciate the simple things in life - like comfortable sleepwear. The businessman has shared a number of photos of himself hanging around his pool deck in his printed pyjama shirts and trousers. On one occasion he noted, "Always pyjamas to go on the boat or on the beach."

The Internet star also likes to live on the wild side. Action man Gianluca has taken riding his motorcycle to new heights, standing on top of his Harley Davidson's seat — naturally wearing pyjamas — while the bike was still in motion, and cruising down a curved hillside.
His daredevil ways have played out on the high seas too with his 'crazy sailing', which involves him hanging off his boat's boom, and he has also taken his intrepid antics below the water with underwater cycling in a pool.
5. He can dance!
No surprise since it's his impressive moves that propelled him into the spotlight. Whether he's doing La Samba in a tuxedo by a pool or shaking it in a swimsuit to Pitbull's Echa Pa'lla (Maños Pa' Arriba), this businessman lets his fancy footwork do all the talking.
