Now, Paul forays into the ad world

Berlin: After gaining a superstar status with his all-correct predictions of results of World Cup games, Paul the psychic octopus has now ventured into advertising.



The eight-legged oracle recently appeared in an advertisement for German supermarket chain Rewe and has received more than 160 endorsement offers, including a book deal, according to the mollusc's agent.

The advertisements, which were shot about a week ago, show Paul in his trademark pose atop a transparent box after snatching a mussel from inside.



How long did it take Paul to choose the mussel from the Rewe box? "Instantly," the mollusc's UK-based agent Chris Davis told Der Spiegel magazine.
