Micael Kiriakos Delaoglou (born 31 October 1963), known professionally as Mikkey Dee, is a Swedish musician, who has played drums for German heavy metal band Scorpions since 2016.

He was the drummer for English heavy metal band Motörhead (for which he is still best known to this day) from 1992 until 2015 and has played with other artists including King Diamond, Helloween and Don Dokken.

His main influences include Neil Peart, Brian Downey, Buddy Rich, Steve Smith and especially Ian Paice.

King Diamond himself was becoming quite popular and the musicians backing him were taking a secondary role in the writing and decision making.

After the completion of the supporting tour for Them, he decided to leave the band as he felt that he was becoming more of a backup musician rather than an equal contributing songwriter.

While King Diamond was touring with Motörhead, frontman Lemmy repeatedly asked Dee to join his band.

Dee also played drums on Helloween's 2003 album Rabbit Don't Come Easy, stepping in for Mark Cross.

[citation needed] In April 2006, King Diamond reunited with Dee at a sold-out gig at Kåren in Gothenburg, Sweden.

The rumor that he was a member of a Swedish National Youth Hockey team, which began with an interview on Motörhead's Stage Fright DVD, has been rebutted by Dee himself.
