5-Year-Old Girl Eyes Guinness World Record After Delivering DJ Set at Utah Festival

At an age when most children are negotiating bedtime, DJ LeeLee delivered a festival set.And if Guinness World Records confirms what her family is claiming, she may soon hold the title of youngest female DJ to perform at a music festival.

DJ LeeLee, 5, is a kindergartner from the Salt Lake City area.She climbed onto a stage at Awaken Music Festival on August 15, delivering an unaided DJ set that ran just over 51 minutes and included spins of generational dance anthems like Swedish House Mafia’s ‘Don’t You Worry Child’ and Zedd’s ‘Beautiful Now.’ Guinness had approved her application in early-July, clearing the way for the attempt.

Documentation was submitted for review on August 25 and a decision could take up to 12 weeks, according to the girl’s parents, Ashley and Andrew Lovell.If verified, she would unseat DJ Rinoka of Tokyo, who set the current mark in 2024 at 6 years and 351 days old.

DJ LeeLee performed at 5 years and 157 days, more than a year and a half younger.This is not her first brush with record books.

RecordSetter, one of the largest alternative record-keeping organizations, recently confirmed that LeeLee and her frequent collaborator, 7-year-old CXRTER, hold the record for the youngest b2b DJ duo by combined age.They often spin together under the name DJ Faculty Lounge.

Two days after Awaken Music Festival, the pair performed at their elementary school’s back-to-school night in front of roughly 700 parents and students.Scroll to continue more from edm Court Orders Maserati to Pay Black Coffee $438,000 Over Undelivered Supercar DJ LeeLee’s family says she now wants to break the Guinness World Record for the Youngest Female DJ to Perform at a Club.
