S Club 7 Stalker Terror
Record company bosses have ordered security to be stepped up around the band after a stalker mimed shooting the young stars with an imaginary gun.
The stalker made his threatening gestures when he attended a record signing in Germany. The next day he turned up at Cologne airport and again made as if to shoot the band members as they checked in for their flight. Then the stalker boarded the same aeroplane bound for Heathrow.
A band insider said: “The band were already pretty shaken up by the time they got on the flight. As they took their seats, they were horrified to see the same man come down the aisle and take a seat alongside them. He sniggered and again started pretending to have a gun in his hands, pointing his fingers at them, pretending to shoot them. It was very scary for the group and they decided to get off the plane and catch a later flight.”
The security is now being increased around the band as nobody knows what the man is capable of doing or who he is.
