BLUNT BUYS 'ROCK GUN' TO DEAL WITH FANS
Singer/songwriter JAMES BLUNT has bought a gun which fires rocks to scare away fans who congregate outside his new home on the Spanish island Ibiza.
James Blunt performed at 02 Wireless Festival in Hyde Park. London, England - 24.06.06
The YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL hitmaker, who has topped charts on both sides of the Atlantic, spent $3 million (GBP1.7 million) on his holiday retreat last month (JUL06), and is shocked to find fans have already discovered his hideaway's location.
The 32-year-old, who is a former British Army officer, says, "I've not had my place in Ibiza long but since I've been here, I've experienced a lot of people hanging around outside my house - it's totally out of order.
"When I come here I want to get away from it all and I just keep to myself so I'd like some privacy in return. I've gone out and bought a gun that shoots rocks so if I catch anyone hanging around then I'll get them with that.
"Some people just go too far, it's an invasion of privacy."
