John Frusciante Granted Restraining Order Against Stalker

This week is all about the Red Hot Chili Peppers, and that includes former members of the California band.

While Anthony Kiedis and the gang prep for the release of their new record, 'I'm With You,' the band's former guitarist John Frusciante is doing his best to dodge a stalker. "I am worried that she is unstable and that she could snap at any moment," Frusciante said after filing for a restraining order against 32-year-old August Elizabeth Thomas earlier this month.

According to Exclaim, the order was finally granted on Aug. 24, which should put an end to the "long, rambling and overly emotional" e-mails the guitarist has been receiving from the overzealous fan who's been keeping overly close tabs on his life.

Thomas, who was reportedly writing a screenplay about the musician as well (what an enterprising stalker, indeed), now must remain 100 yards away from Frusciante for the next two years. Hopefully that doesn't mean the 32-year-old will move on to one of the guys who are actually, you know, still in the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
