A New York based Russian, Anastasia Obukhova, has threatened to shoot Lady Gaga in the head. Why? Because Lady Gaga haunts this 26-year-old student in her dreams. So, Obukhova wants to die along with this pop singer.

The obsessed Obukhova threatened Lady Gaga in a letter but it was intercepted by the management before it reached this pop sensation. The letter refers to the Beatles' legendary John Lennon murder. The murderer, Mark Chapman, had shot Lennon four times right outside his apartment in New York. Obukhova clarifies that unlike Chapman, she will shoot a bullet through her own head after shooting Lady Gaga. The letter also states how Obukhova had been at a distance of less than 1m from the diva and had managed to click a photo with her.

Lady Gaga, who is currently touring in Europe, has reportedly tightened security in the wake of this letter. Her team does not want to take any chances. This 24-year-old singer, dancer and producer has obtained a restraining order against Obukhova. This order bans Obukhova from going within 500 meters of the `Alejandro' singer.

Lady Gaga, originally named Stefani Germanotta, is known for her peculiar hair dos, clothes and stage props. She has emerged not only as an artiste but also as a fashion icon. It is not surprising that fans are obsessed about this fearless "Born this way" star. Recently she has bagged the Video of the Year award at the MTV Video Music Awards 2010.
