Many wise people have said that you know you’ve hit the peak in your fame when you acquire a stalker. I had my first stalker when I was 17. Some creepy guy at school, he would wave at me, he stole my phone number from a mutual friends phone, and a few months ago (9 years after the stalking began) he even sent me a friend request on Facebook. Decline.
Why is it that I’ve had a stalker and yet I feel so unfulfilled? Was it because he never went to the extreme? Where were the death threats, the chocolates, the flowers? Where were the calls from an unknown number followed by heavy breathing at the other end? If your stalker doesn’t make you fear for your life, get a new one.
If I want to be as famous as God, I’m going to need to up my game and find a complete psycho stalker. I want bunnies boiling in pans, I want speedboats blowing up, I want to be singing Whitney Houston songs as Kevin Costner jumps in front of a bullet for me. Does anyone have the number for his agent?
But where do I find such a psycho? I’m going to begin with the people that are in close proximity to me in everyday life and I figure the gym is a great place to start.
I enjoy doing regular classes at the gym and recently Bethany has been getting closer and closer to me during BodyPump. I also always see her wearing a Pineapple Dance tshirt with her hair in pigtails, so she definitely has the makings of a crazy person. I think we need to connect on an emotional level, so maybe I should trip her up whilst she’s on the treadmill and then get her some ice for her bloody nose, or if she really hits the floor hard I could be the person who goes with her to the hospital whilst she’s strapped to a stretcher in the back of an ambulance – perfect opportunity to route through her handbag whilst she’s heavily sedated.
But then again, I think it’s probably best that the person who earns the coveted role as my stalker is a foreign immigrant, that way if things really heat up I can get them deported and play the “innocent victim tormented by a crazy foreigner” card, it’s bound to get me media attention because everyone loves it when immigrants get kick out.
So it’s going to be either Bethany or Abdul from my local newsagent who gets the job of going through my bins and hacking my voicemails. Unless Rebekah Brooks is free? Luckily I’ve got a full can of pepper spray and BBC News on speed dial so I guess I’m all set. If you don’t hear from me again it probably ended in tears.
