There’s never a good time to be a stalker, but now is an especially bad time to be a stalker. Not only is the guy stalking Billie Eilish a creepy weirdo who keeps coming around her house, he’s also not doing his part to prevent the spread of the coronavirus.
TMZ reports that Eilish received a restraining order against Prenell Rousseau after he repeatedly showed up at her house.
Billie says the 24-year-old trespasser started showing up last Monday, ringing the doorbell, and through the Ring camera, her father asked Rousseau if he could help him. Rousseau responded, “I think I might have the wrong house, but does Billie Eilish live here?”
Billie’s dad told the guy he had the wrong house, but that didn’t stop him.
Billie says he returned at 9 PM and exhibited “erratic behavior.” She says, “While we waited for security, Mr. Rousseau remained on our porch, sat down and began to read a book, while also continuing to engage in a periodic monologue. My father repeatedly asked him to leave, but he refused …”
That is the sort of behavior someone displays after shooting John Lennon. Seriously, the guy who shot John Lennon sat down and read Catcher in the Rye while he waited for the police, and I haven’t trusted anyone who could read since, which has made things difficult since it happened before I was born.
She also mentioned the guy showed up at her house seven times, and only wore a mask twice. The police wouldn’t arrest him because trespassing is a non-violent offense and we’re trying to keep prison populations low during the outbreak.
So the police put him on a bus out of town and a judge granted Eilish’s request for a restraining order, meaning he will get arrested if he comes within 200 feet of the singer or her parents.
