See photos from when NYC cops had to confront an “emotionally disturbed” man outside the home of Taylor Swift in her ritzy Tribeca neighborhood in May 2016. The pop diva was away at the time, but the starstruck fan was acting strangely enough to get the attention of Taylor’s chief bodyguard. The police were quickly called to the residence. After some conversation while searching through the man’s duffle bag and a sketchpad, police sent him off to Mount Sinai Beth Israel Hospital for a psychiatric evaluation.

A superstar like Taylor, of course, has to get used to stalkers — with cops having already apprehended another man outside her L.A. home this past February. That puts her up there with plenty of other celebrities who've also dealt with crazed fans.
The National ENQUIRER was also there when

Dante was actually found innocent of stalking Gwyneth after assuring jurors that he had "no desire to hurt her feelings." He'd previously been found not guilty by reason of insanity in 2000 — when he was also on trial for sending Gwyneth obsessive messages.
Barbra Streisand also had to
lock down her estate in 2012 over a crazed fan, with a source telling The ENQUIRER: “Barbra’s fallen victim to a very scary stalker, a fanatical Streisand lover who’s totally focused on her! Even though she’s had stalkers before, her security people are taking this guy very seriously!"
