Lady Gaga has been granted a restraining order against a woman who said she wanted the pair to die together, it's been reported.

Anastasia Obukhova, 26, a Russian student based in New York, reportedly sent a threatening letter to the star which was intercepted by her management.

In the letter, she apparently said: "You come to my dreams. I want to die and I want to die together with you.

She allegedly went on to refer to Mark Chapman, who killed The Beatles' John Lennon, adding: “It is not only you who will die. I will shoot a bullet through my head too."

According To The Sun, Obukhova has been prevented from coming within 500 yards of the singer.

Meanwhile, Lady Gaga is currently on the latest European leg of her Monster Ball world tour.
