Lou Monte

Louis Scaglione, bedre kjent som Lou Monte (født 2. april 1917 i New York, død 12. juni 1989 i Florida) var en italiensk-amerikansk sanger som var mest kjent for en rekke bestselgende plater som han spilte inn for plateselskapene RCA Victor og Reprise Records i slutten av 1950-årene.   Monte har spilt inn flere hundrevis av singler, deriblant er han kjent for singelen Pepino the Italian Mouse, "Shaddap Your Face" og ikke minst singelen "Jealous of You" som han debturte i 1953. Han har også gitt ut flere albumer, noe som førte til at han skrev kontrakt med flere andre etablerte plateselskaper.
