Stars and stalkers: a combination, unfortunately, frequent. Over the course of their careers, many stars have suffered harassment by one (or more) deranged people who undermined its security. Some of them have even lost their lives due to stalkers with serious mental problems. The most infamous case is certainly that of John Lennonshot dead at the entrance to his residence, the Dakota building in Manhattan, by a crazed fan named Mark Chapman who is serving a life sentence.
Another case that strongly shook public opinion concerned the 22-year-old star of The Voice Christina Grimmie. The young American singer lost her life in 2016, after a mad admirer of hers shot her during a concert in Orlando, Florida, then took her own life. With the hit Netflix series, Baby Reindeer, which deals with the traumatic experience of persecution experienced firsthand by the actor Richard Gadd, we return to talking about VIPs and stalking. From Taylor Swift to Brad Pitt via Blake Lively to Steven Spielberg. Here, 10 celebrities stalked by stalkers.

It’s been ten years since the rom-com star was the victim of a terrifying home invasion. Her stalker, Joshua Corbett, broke into her Los Angeles home with a loaded gun. Bullock hid in the closet and called the police. Accused of illegal possession of weapons and break-ins, the man who later committed suicide had a real obsession with the diva.
