Idle Interview: Paul Marturano

Paul Marturano sang a love song dedicated to Paula that was all about stalking her. Paul's hilarious song "Stalker" included several humorous lines, and Paula was simultaneously amused and creeped out. Eventually, Simon lost patience, and security showed Paul the exit doors.

Paul took the time to sit with us for an interview and discussed various aspects of his interview process. Paul discussed his other musical endeavors and also what happened to him after security escorted him out of the audition room.

Novac from Idle Idols: For the record: What is your name? What is your quest? What is your favourite colour?
Paul Marturano: AH My name is Sir Paula Abdul's Stalker Marturano My quest is to perform my music and comedy for the world while saving homeless animals from shleters before they can be euthanized and my favorite color is Green …..no wait Blue
Novac: Are you a fan of American Idol? How did you decide to audition?
Paul: I am a fan of the show. I have always wanted to be on the show but have never auditioned because by the time I got up the nerve I was past the age limit. So I decided that I would just go have some fun and see what happened.
Novac: Did they give you a hard time because you were overage, or did they pass you through because they knew you'd make for such a fun audition?

Idle Interview: Milo Turk

Milo Turk was the American Idol contestant who proudly and emphatically sang his song No Sex Allowed for the judges. Milo completely stunned Ryan with his views and further confused Randy during his audition. Despite being overage, Randy and Paula did end up having fun and singing along with the catchy chorus.

I had the opportunity to chat with Milo for a while about his audition. Milo even shares the two additional verses you didn't hear on the show!

Novac from Idle Idols: For the record: What is your name? What is your quest? What is your favourite colour?
Milo Turk: My name is Milo Turk. My quest is to get everyone not to take sex for granted, and to consider it sacred. My favorite color is green, like the environment.
Novac: You sang No Sex Allowed for the judges. Is there a way for us to hear the second and third verses of the song that you mentioned during your audition?

Idle Interview: Mary Roach

Mary Roach was the psychodiva who was featured on the American Idol Season 4 premiere. She was billed as "the next William Hung," and even though she didn't gain Hung-like status, her audition is easily one of the most memorable. Two years later, Mary Roach has revived her website at maryroachweb.com and is looking to relive her 15 minutes of fame.

Novac from Idle Idols: For the record: What is your name? What is your quest? What is your favourite colour?
Mary Roach: My name is Mary Roach, spelled exactly like that. My quest is to become a more famous actress and stand-up comic — I would really like to play both comedic and dramatic roles in movies one day… or maybe just appear in more reality shows. ;) My favorite colors are hot pink, black, and purple. I couldn't just pick one.

Idle Interview: Crazy Dave Hoover

Crazy Dave Hoover, a.k.a. Mr. Dubious of American Idol 5 fame stopped by Idle Idols to answer a few questions. Crazy Dave is the contestant who jumped around and screamed like a spaz and actually made it through to Hollywood. In Hollywood, he was well received by his peers and received plenty of applause after his performance, but the judges decided not to keep him on.

Novac from Idle Idols: For the record: What is your name? What is your quest? What is your favourite colour?
Crazy Dave Hoover: Dave Hoover. I couldn't possibly pick a favorite color. My quests are among many.
Novac: Are you an American Idol fan?
Dave: Well, I watched it all last year. I'm a big fan of reality TV for some reason. I hadn't had a TV for a few years before that. I think TV is so distracting when you are trying to be productive. The first few seasons, I caught a few minutes here and there at friend's houses. I thought it was the cheesiest thing I had ever seen.
