10 Utterly Disturbing Ways That Obsessed Fans Go Too Far

7. Gifts Ranging From The Baffling To The Terrifying

What goes through the minds of fans who send bizarre and unwelcome gifts to their heroes? Harry Styles of One Direction was sent a toilet seat for his birthday, etched with a personal message. Apparently he's kept it and attached it to his loo. He's also been sent a sanitary towel, but we€™re kind of hoping he didn't keep that one. Meanwhile, the mailing of animals is also a thing, apparently. Avril Lavigne was sent a dead rabbit. The Jonas Brothers were given a dead shark €“ a small one €“ preserved in a tube, while the Hanson brothers actually received a live dog, which they elected to keep as a pet, although they€™ve requested that people don't send them anything else living. Taylor Swift, meanwhile, has been forwarded the shell of a turtle€ with her face painted on it. That€™s all kind of weird. Def Leppard guitarist Phil Collen was also given a new pet - a live cat. As well as animals, he€™s had numerous sharp objects thrown at him onstage, including scissors, ninja stars and a stiletto show, which hit him in the face and caused him to need surgery. Emma Watson, on the other hand, has the Bible-bashing community concerned about her eternal soul after starring in so many movies about wizards. They send her Bibles: she reckons she has nearly two dozen by now. A Zac Efron fan sent him some of his or her skin in the post. There€™s no part of that sentence that doesn€™t cause a shudder. Pop party girl Kesha was once sent a tooth by a fan, which she appreciated so much that she turned it into an earring, and requested more in order that she could create herself further accessories and items of clothing. Meanwhile, professional Christ impersonator Jared Leto claims to have been sent a human ear in the post. In the 1970s, however, Dolly Parton received the king of all horribly odd presents from a fan: a baby was left at her doorstep, with a note saying that her name was Jolene and that her mother wanted Dolly to keep her. Social services were called immediately to care for the poor little thing.
