Obsessive fans
Many celebrities are victims of obsessive fans. In the United States, the
phenomenon is known as celebrity stalking. Everybody is interested in the
lives of the rich and famous. Everyone also knows the celebrities are hunted
by fans looking for photos or autographs. But real obsessive fans or stalkers
are something different!
Stalkers think they have a connection with the celebrity. Some imagine they
are the lovers or relatives of their victims. All stalkers live and breathe the lives
of their victims, and they will do anything to get near them. Two years ago, a
30-year-old man was jailed after stalking TV reporter Jennifer Reilly. He wrote
her hundreds of letters, he waited for her after work, and he said he was her
lover. He even tried to find her home address. He told his victim: every
celebrity needs a stalker. When a stalker can't access the victim, they
sometimes do terrible things. John Hinckley Jr. tried to assassinate Ronald
Reagan because of his obsession with actress Jodie Foster. Tennis star
Monica Seles was attacked by a fan of Steffi Graf. More and more TV and
radio reporters are having problems with stalkers but don't have the level of
security as movie or sports stars. At a recent conference, U.S. broadcasters
were given the following advice:

 Take all letters seriously, even if they are nice letters.


 Do not return gifts and letters; save them for the police.
 Do not eat any food sent by a stranger.
 Do not give out personal details on the TV or radio.
 Use bullet-proof glass to protect on-air staff who are visible from outside
the station
