Singer Michelle Branch, who is apparently still around, doesn’t take any crap from the audience. Well, at least not when it includes people who have been stalking her.
The “Everywhere” singer had an audience member arrested during a concert in Sheboygan, Wis., Monday after recognizing a man who has allegedly been following and harassing her.
As Michelle Branch took the stage to perform an encore at the Stefanie H. Weill Center for the Performing Arts, the cute singer reportedly froze up before begging security to apprehend 32-year-old Dominick Giordano.
He allegedly tried to bolt, but was quickly arrested by Sheboygan Police and cited for disorderly conduct. His mug shot appears below, next to a hot picture of Branch. Yeeeah. He’s not creepy or anything.Â
Authorities say Giordano has been following the “Everywhere” singer around the country since 2003 and regularly sends her letters and videos.
In the police report, cops say Giordano has previously “managed to lie his way backstage” at Branch’s concerts, “sneak into after-concert parties” and also “allegedly lunged at Ms. Branch during an autograph signing event.”
Man, if Michelle Branch is getting harassed this bad, you can imagine what bigger celebs such as Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera have to deal with.
According to TMZ, Branch was “scared” by a “particularly disturburbing” incident, and expressed concern for the safety of her 19-month-old daughter, who was also at the show.
Giordano was released after posting a $150 bond. This is easily one of the weirdest stories of the week. Who stalks Michelle Branch? Who’s next, Jeff Goldblum? Oh, wait…
