Miley Cyrus's alleged stalker was arrested after turning up at the singer's home to give her a stuffed animal toy.
Alexander Karddalian, 52, was picked up by police in Los Angeles on Friday morning after her security team raised the alarm at around 1am.
Cyrus was given a court order against him last September after she explained he had come to her home only days after being released from prison and sent her a series of letters and asked her for money.
It comes as singer enjoys record-breaking success with her song Fowers spending 37 weeks at at the number one spot on the Adult Contemporary Chart.
The song also received three nominations for the upcoming 66th Grammy Awards for Best Pop Solo Performance, Record of the Year and Song of the Year.
Her eighth studio album, Endless Summer Vacation, is also nominated for Album of the Year and Best Pop Vocal Album, while Cyrus is also nominated for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance for her collaboration with Brandi Carlile on Thousand Miles.
Flowers has also been a huge hit in the UK where it was number one for 10 weeks and the best-selling single of the year, based on combined streaming and sales figures.
Cyrus, the daughter of chart-topping country star Billy Ray Cyrus, first hit the headlines as a child star playing the title role in teen drama Hannah Montana.
She scored her first chart hits under that name before developing her music from teen pop to a more mature R 'n' B style that kept her in the charts.
