Tom Cruise could be the latest target of a celebrity stalker. A woman was arrested outside of his and Katie Holmes' Beverly Hills home. Emily Diane Leatherman was arrested for violation of a court order and possession of stolen property, Beverly Hills police confirmed. Leatherman claimed that Cruise's staff had given her permission to meet him. Police would not reveal what the specific court order or alleged stolen property was. They said the items were unrelated to Cruise's home. This is not Leatherman's first celebrity-related run-in with the law. In June, a judge ordered Leatherman to stay at least 500 feet away from John Cusack after he said she had been stalking him for more than a year. In his request for the restraining order, Cusack said Leatherman was "showing unusual interest by stalking, throwing long letters of interest over my fence in bags with rocks and screwdrivers inside, making unannounced visits to offices of people I work with in an attempt to meet with me and listing my address as her own during a recent arrest." Cusack said he had never met Leatherman, yet her mail has been arriving at his home. The woman has suggested in letters that she wants "a normal life and home" with Cusack, and threatened to hurt herself if he doesn't help her, according to the papers.

A man accused of stalking Michelle Branch was arrested at her Wisconsin concert after she spotted him in the audience. She was performing with her band The Wreckers when she caught a glimpse of Dominick Giordano and asked the security staff to step in. According to fans, Branch stopped the concert and said, "Wait a second. There's a guy in the audience, striped shirt and glasses, can somebody check him out?" Giordano was cited for disorderly conduct after security staff at the Weill Center for the Performing Arts stopped him as he tried to leave. Authorities claim Giordano has been following Branch to concerts around the country, and regularly sends her disturbing letters and videos. A police report from the incident states Giordano has regularly sneaked into post-concert parties and once lunged at Branch during an autograph signing session. Authorities claim Branch was particularly concerned because her 19-month-old daughter was at the concert. Branch's road manager, Joshua Scott, says, "Giordano would try to approach her and touch her and just really inappropriate stuff."
