Stalking Shawn

17-year-old Olympian Shawn Johnson has attracted much more than votes during her stint on Dancing With the Stars (DWTS), she now has her very own stalker. A man claiming he was “meant to be” with Shawn was arrested after trying to sneak onto the DWTS set Monday.
The man, 34-year-old Robert O’Ryan is being held on a $35,000 bail. According to documents filed by Johnson, “The LAPD searched [O'Ryan's] vehicle and located a loaded .45 handgun, a loaded shotgun, and materials classically used for kidnapping including duct tape, zip ties, and a map to the victim. Also found were love letters, clippings and other information on the victim.”
O’Ryan told police “He had packed all his belongings and permanently left Florida to drive out here to be with [Shawn Johnson], he believes that she speaks to him personally through the television set and through ESP and that they will have a child together, he stated he would be with her no matter what.”
What a nut job. I am curious though, of all the scantily-clad stars on DWTS, why Shawn? Why not hotter-than-hot Julianne Hough or Karina Smirnoff? There is a playboy playmate on the show for crying out loud! And he chooses the olympian?
Shawn says she’s “in fear for her life, she is extremely upset by this incident and her entire family and those around are all extremely concerned and fearful that [O'Ryan] might try to kidnap her or harm her in an effort to make good on his statements.” A petition has been filed for a restraining order against the manseeking protection for Shawn, her mother, her father and her DWTS partner Mark Ballas.
