Usain Bolt is used to entertaining crowds on the running track, but the Jamaican sprint star tried his hand charming a different crowd over the weekend.

Living up to his reputation as a party animal, the Olympic gold medallist got behind the decks to DJ at Shane Warne's exclusive Club 23 in Melbourne on Saturday night.

Wearing a plain white tee-shirt and matching snapback cap, Bolt was filmed playing classic rap anthems like Lil Jon's 'To the Wall' to the surging crowd of revellers.

Photographs uploaded to social media indicated the sprinting legend hopped from club to club as the night wore on, posing for photographs with female fans at other trendy nightspots like Love Machine and Tramp.

Earlier on Saturday, Bolt was a special guest for the Nitro Athletics series.

Proving why he owns the title of the fastest man in the world, the eight-time Olympic champion lined up at Lakeside Stadium to put on a masterclass performance. 

He lined up in the second leg of the mixed 4x100m relay against three other men and two female sprinters - Mariko Nagano from Japan and 16-year-old Riley Day.

With fellow Jamaican and former world record holder Asafa Powell running the opening leg for the All Stars against five women, Bolt was always going to get the baton well clear in first place.

The gap was much bigger by the time he handed off to Jenna Prandini, although Day was also impressive.

"Three months ago I never thought I'd be here signing autographs," Day said.

"I had to practise it to make sure I got it right.

"(Bolt) was talking smack, saying, 'We're going to win, we're going to win'. I was like, 'I'm not taking this'."

Bolt readily admitted he had done some light-hearted trash-talking with his opponents.

"That's what makes it so good," he said.

"They know we are kidding but we are just having fun.

"It's different because they are not used to actually engaging with their competitors."

The All Stars won the mixed relay with plenty to spare, while Jack Hale stormed home to get third spot for Australia. 

The remaining two Nitro Series meets are on Thursday and next Saturday.
