Celebs who married fans/stalkers

Don't give false hope to yourself or anyone else, OP. Stalking is generally frowned upon.

That Bob Odenkirk thing really freaks me out. Why the fuck would he do that? I mean it obvious worked out, but it's still weird.

obviously*

R1 Quit trying to derail my thread!

Keep your friends close, but your enemies closer.

Ruben Studdard married a fan. They met at an event where he was signing autographs.

My partner and I had dinner with Bob Odenkirk and his wife several years ago in Hollywood after doing a charity benefit with him. Naomi (his wife) told us the entire story of her stalking and ultimate victory, while waiting for the appetizers to arrive. No sense of "wow I was really weird back then, huh?" Bob just sat there and nodded, like "yup, that's how it went down."

My partner and I were kicking each other under the table. When the dinner ended and we were alone, we were bubbling over with relief to finally debrief, and talking over each other as we waited for the valet to bring our car around. "That was really strange, right?!!!!" "I know!!!! Right?!!!!!!"

Roland Orzibal of Tears For Fears is with a groupie now. HIs wife of many decades died suddenly a couple years ago. His new gal is much younger than him and posts covers of songs, including TFF songs, on you tube. *CRINGE*

The stunning Matthew Lewis, who played Neville in the Harry Potter series, married a woman he'd met at a 'Wizarding World' fan event at Universal Studios Orlando.

R7, did he act defeated?

Philip K. Dick had a relationship with a stalker, or a fan, and even went to live with her during his divorce from his 3rd wife. After that, he got a 4th and a 5th wife.

Well, in Ruben's defense, he was lucky to have found both a fan and someone who found him attractive.

Oh no, I hadn't heard about Roland's wife. He wrote a thinly veiled "autobiographical" novel several years back and he detailed his and his wife's relationship as very close and loving.

The group hanson married their fans.

Paul McCartney/Linda Eastman

John Lennon/Yoko Ono

Bruce Springsteen/Patti whateverhernameis

Mark Sheppard who plays Crowley met a fan at the Supernatural convention they begun dating and eventually got married.

Prince Harry.

I could definitely see a Phil Hartmann situation with Odenkirk if he ever tried to leave.

I remember hearing that Agnetha from ABBA dated her stalker

Tish Cyrus was Billy Ray's groupie.

Couldn't a case be made for Melania?

Luke Perry married a fan who mailed him her bra.

Oh god Trent Reznor. The fucking drama that set off, holy fuck. All the forums went crazy, even the more "reputable" ones that were about music, not the obsessive fan ones.

It was like the Industrial Goth version of the Jani Lane thread, ratcheted up to 1000.

R23, what’s the story with Reznor? I know he married that singer from West Indian Girl, was she his stalker? I’ve been out of the industrial scene for some time so I have no clue what happened.

Didn’t Matt Damon marry a civilian nobody?

[quote]Roland Orzibal of Tears For Fears is with a groupie now. HIs wife of many decades died suddenly a couple years ago

See, now that’s very interesting to me.

Frank Zappa married a groupie.

R25, this is about marrying actual fans/stalkers. A lot of celebrities are married to people who aren't famous.

There's a big difference between a fan and a stalker.

R29 More of a fine line.

R22 Perry claimed that wasn't true.

Not married, but dating.

Where can I read more details about the Odenkirks? I googled but got nothing except shots of them on the red carpet together.

Kurt Cobain married his stalker. The marriage did not end well.

I know I had a huge crush on Odenkirk when I was like 16 and he was on the Stiller show. That's about as far as it went.

Anyone know a minister who does group discounts?

WTf^

R15 Those are/ were are homely looking stalker fans.

Luke Perry's ex-wife was his fan-stalker.

R34 give me a sip of that Marg. I could tell you some TALES, sis.

R10 He seemed a bit "whipped," if you know what I mean.

Berry Berenson was an obsessive fan of Anthony Perkins.

He sperminated her with two kids before dying of AIDS in 1992.

Prince Harry

Bela Lugosi.

"23 years ago, the actor tied the knot with a film and show producer Naomi Yomtov. And although their love story started as a thriller, these two are still happily married. The couple have two children together: a son Nathan and a daughter Erin. And it was Odenkirk’s family who talked the actor into taking his breakthrough role.

"But let’s rewind the story to how Bob met Naomi. As Mrs. Odenkirk revealed to Playboy, she was a real stalker! When Naomi first saw her future love performing in a comedy club, she somehow felt that she wanted to be his wife. And she followed Bob for over a year before he paid attention to her. Naomi still cannot believe they get along so well, though she thinks she’s not Bob’s type."

Elvis and Priscilla

I heard green day singer married a fan.

Marlon Jackson answered a fan letter when he was a teenager, they became pen pals and eventually married when he was 18. They're still happily married. Her family worked in real estate and after a brief solo career he went into real estate, made a fortune and was part owner of the Black Family Chanel. It was a very fortunate decision of his to write back to that fan, considering how the rest of his siblings have fared.

Jake T. Austin from Wizards of Waverly Place and The Fosters.

James Doohan, who played Scott on Star Trek TOS, met his teenage last wife at a ST Con.

Prince’s second wife was a fan with a plan

R53 That's for sure true. Ugh, Manuela!

R54 yup and she pulled it off, lucky bitch

R54 And then she unceremoniously dumped his ass and ended up with Eric Benet

In a fucked up way, it kind of makes sense. If you’re a narcissist, there must be some appeal in being someone who is absolutely obsessed with you. The problem is if it goes bad or they find someone else to obsess over.

[quote]I remember hearing that Agnetha from ABBA dated her stalker

Yeah they dated for some time and she eventually had to go to court for a restraining order. I believe he's not even allowed in Sweden now. It was such a weird situation because all this happened in the late 90s long after ABBA and her solo career when she was living a very Greta Garbo style life of isolation. I guess because her children had grown and moved out she was vulnerable to a fan's adoration. He must have been extremely charming (or hung) because she didn't pick him for his looks.

I wondered what happened two Stephen Collins, so I Googled him. He married a fan of his two years ago.

I have no words.
