D'Elia was born in New Jersey, the son of TV producer and director Bill D'Elia,[2] and interior decorator Ellie D'Elia (née Dombroski). He has a younger brother, filmmaker/actor Matt D'Elia. His father is first generation Italian-American.[3]

He was raised in Montclair, New Jersey until age twelve, when his family relocated to Los Angeles, California.[4] He graduated from La Cañada High School in 1998.[5]

D'Elia started acting in high school, and had some guest starring parts on Chicago Hope.[6]

He attended New York University and studied acting but dropped out after a year because he didn't like college.[6] He then appeared in a movie that went straight to DVD. During his downtime as an actor he started writing scripts. When he was 25 he decided to do standup, which he had always wanted to do.[7]

D'Elia has been doing stand-up comedy since 2006.[4] He considers himself to be a standup comedian who acts.[7] He has been featured on Comedy Central's Live at Gotham, Comedy Central Presents, and Showtime's Live Nude Comedy. He was introduced to a broader audience as a regular on the series Glory Daze,[8] which ran for one season on TBS, playing "the Oracle", William Stankowski. He was originally only cast for the pilot, but was made a series regular.[7]

He co-starred in the NBC comedy series Whitney, opposite comedian Whitney Cummings, for two seasons.[8][9]

D'Elia was one of three hosts of the Ten Minute Podcast (from 2012 to 2015), along with Bryan Callen and Will Sasso. Since February 2017, he has hosted the weekly podcast Congratulations with Chris D'Elia, which has charted in the top 20 comedy podcasts in multiple countries.[citation needed] Other podcasts have been heavily influenced by his style, including The Fighter and the Kid, hosted by friend Bryan Callen and former MMA fighter turned E! host Brendan Schaub.[10]
