Marturano will be singing and playing the piano just as he has professionally for the past 11 years. He’ll perform original songs, cover songs, take requests, and will most likely throw in some off the wall comedy songs. “One lucky or…. unlucky lady,” as Marturano puts it, will get a reprise of Stalker, the song he dedicated to Paula Abdul on American Idol in front of over thirty-million viewers.

According to Mike Maragarite, Cascamorto’s owner, patrons can take advantage of Cascamorto's popular cab program. “Take a cab from inside the Philadelphia city limits, bring your receipt in and Cascamorto will pay the fare, you only have to tip the driver!”

In the few short days following his American Idol appearance, Marturano has conducted over 150 radio interviews internationally, appeared on Access Hollywood, the most searched phrase on Google, MSN, and AOL on Jan. 16th and 17th was “Paula Abdul’s Stalker”, he was banned by the NFL from the Super Bowl when a radio station tried to send him as their press person, and he’s been in numerous internet and print articles including US Weekly, Star Magazine, The Philadelphia Inquirer, and The Washington Post.

When asked about American Idol, Marturano responded, “I’d like to do something for IdoI Gives Back like donating a portion of the revenue that comes in from people downloading Stalker from my website.” I am grateful to American Idol for everything that has happened and believe it or not, I am a Simon Cowell fan, especially a fan of what he does for the animals. I like most of his (Cowell) decisions on the show but if Simon put any of the top twelve finalists from American Idol on a stage with the instrument of their choice, no band, and put me on a stage with my piano, I am very confident that I will out perform all of them.”

PAULA ABDUL’S STALKER PAUL MARTURANO BANNED


Our poor friend Paul got banned! Check out the interview we held with him last week here! Paul Marturano, the off-the-wall comic/accomplished pianist from Philadelphia who recently appeared on American Idol and caught the nation’s attention as Paula Abdul’s ‘Stalker’, has recently released the absolutely hilarious star-studded must see Official Stalker Music Video on the ever popular YouTube. The video can also be seen at www.paulpiano.net. Since Paul Marturano’s appearance on American Idol. He has conducted close to 150 radio interviews internationally, he was the lead story on Access Hollywood, and on Wednesday, Jan 16 and Thursday, Jan 17, Paula Abdul’s Stalker was the most searched phrase on Google, MSN, and AOL.

Marturano was recently banned from the Super Bowl by the NFL. According to WIRN radio station, they planned to have Paul Marturano be their on-field correspondent at the Super Bowl and were denied press passes because Marturano was included in their pitch to the NFL. Krause also stated that his contact at the NFL considered the musical comedian a liability and did not want any antics during Paula Abdul’s Super Bowl performance.

Marturano stated, “It is absurd that the NFL would deny WIRN's its press passes this year because I was in their original pitch. Why not give them their passes on the condition that I stay home. Take me out of theequation and don't punish WIRN for having a creative idea that you (NFL) didn't like. Oh well, maybe Tom Brady can lend me one of his girlfriends?”
