A woman who is allegedly obsessed with Usher was arrested outside a recording studio earlier this month for breaking a restraining order. TMZ broke the story.

Darshelle Jones has been following the Atlanta R&B star for years. He's placed multiple restraining orders on her after she showed up at his Johns Creek home twice.

Earlier this month, she was awaiting outside a recording studio with an iPad trying to catch a glimpse of him. She was 100 feet, far closer than the restraining order allows (200 yards or 600 feet). She was booked for aggravated assault.
