When we say “Superman at Palazzo Grazioli“, we’re not talking the more celebrated inhabitant of the house, Silvio Berlusconi, and his exploits with Italian escort girls.
We are, in fact, talking about a publicity stunt by a young Italian in search of a job (we figure, in fact, that Berlusconi is more taken with gold kimonos for example, than red capes, but perhaps that’s too much information on a Friday).
Pasquale Putignano, unemployed from Palermo, had the idea of planting himself outside the house of the Italian prime minister, which is also the headquarters of Red TV, where he would like to get himself a job, if possible (finding a job in Italy often requires superhuman powers, believe me).
It’s not the first time Putignano has tried this stunt (perhaps he would have more success looking for a job elsewhere), but we love the irony of this.
Superman, underpants on the outside… the opportunities for titillation are endless.
