AceShowbiz - Miranda Cosgrove has been granted a restraining order against a male fan who threatened to commit suicide over his unrequited love. According to TMZ, the former "iCarly" star requested the restraining order after the fan named Joshua Stockton allegedly had been following the actress endlessly using clues from social media posts. He reportedly also went to her campus at USC to see her.
According to the report, Stockton's obsession is not limited to the alleged stalking. He sent the actress gifts and later got upset because the packages were returned unopened. Stockton then sent her a photo of the alleged boxes and his bandaged wrist on Twitter, writing, "Frankly I'm tired of love, and my heart is ready to give out. Maybe I'll finish the job I started." The report further suggests that Stockton said he would kill himself with a hairdryer in a bathtub.
In happier news, Cosgrove opened up about her days at school in a new interview with ABC News. "The weirdest part is after a day at school, I'll go on Instagram or the Internet and there will be pictures of me from school that random people took and I didn't know they took. So, that can be kind of weird sometimes," she said, adding that she really wanted to take screenwriting classes.
The 21-year-old star also revealed that she wanted to be like Tina Fey and Kristen Wiig who act and write. "College really does help you grow up and figure out who you are. So, it's just helped me grow as a person, like even just getting to classes on time and figuring out where classes are," she explained with a laugh.
