LOAS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Ariana Grande's fans are concerned over disturbing details that surfaced when an alleged stalker, who reportedly intruded into the pop icon's mansion nearly 100 times, received a prison sentence.

Grande has recently been in the spotlight following the release of her latest single, 'Yes, and?'.

The pop sensation's influence extends beyond her fan base, as 'Wolves' singer Selena Gomez recently disclosed her admiration for Grande, identifying herself as an Arianator and expressing how Grande's music empowers her.

Adding to the buzz, Grande recently also opened up about the transformative nature of 2023, describing it as one of the most challenging yet happiest and most special years of her life in a heartfelt Instagram post.

Ariana Grande's stalker gets sentenced to 3 years in prison

According to a report from the Daily Mail, Grande's stalker, Aharon Zebulun Israel Brown, has been convicted and is set to serve three years and eight months in state prison.

The Daily Mail reveals that Brown trespassed into Grande's Hollywood Hills estate on at least 92 occasions in 2021, even entering once while armed with a hunting knife. Despite Grande obtaining a five-year restraining order against him at that time, he persisted and breached her Montecito property in 2022.

As reported by the Daily Mail, a press release from Santa Barbara County District Attorney John T Savrnoch stated that Brown pleaded guilty to first-degree residential burglary, making criminal threats, and stalking someone with a restraining order against him. 

In addition to the prison term, the Daily Mail notes that Brown will face a new restraining order, this time lasting for 10 years. This order not only prohibits him from being in Grande's physical presence but also bars any form of contact with her.



 

Brown managed to infiltrate Grande's Hollywood Hills residence over seven months from February to September 2021.

In September, he entered the property, brandishing a hunting knife and threatening Grande's security, stating, "I'll f***ing kill you and her!". Despite attempting to flee when police arrived, he was apprehended.

The Daily Mail reports that Brown's fixation with Grande persisted, and between May 26 and June 26, 2022, he sent disturbing messages to her on Instagram.

On June 26, 2022, he broke into her Montecito house, using a screwdriver to cut telephone lines and alarm system wires. Fortunately, Grande was not at home during the intrusion.

Brown was also found in possession of over 2,000 images of Ariana Grande, according to the Daily Mail.

Despite the ongoing concerns, Ariana Grande continues to receive praise for her new music. Recently, the pop icon faced online trolling from some social media users when the sign-up link for her highly anticipated seventh album was removed.

Internet users assert punishment for Ariana Grande's security

A user wrote, "Almost 100 times & less than 4 years… That is ridiculous!"



 

Another user wrote, "The securities need to serve 10 years for letting this happen everytime".



 

Another user advocated for the removal of Grande's security and wrote, "How did he get in after the first time she needs to fire her security😭😭".



 

A user commented, "Yeah no he deserves LIFE in prison".
