Andy Biersack forced to move houses after fan harassment

November 16, 2017

Andy Biersack has issued a statement on Twitter, revealing he was forced to move after fans were found sharing his address and showing up at his home.

“We will be moving and I hope that going forward personal privacy will be respected,” he writes.

Biersack thanks his fans for their dedication, but it should be clear that there's a line between professional and private lives—out of respect for Biersack as an artist and a human deserving of respect.

“Circling my home in a vehicle over and over is simply not acceptable,” Biersack writes. “Please understand we are just regular people and stop this unnecessary situation.”

i appreciate the dedication so many have given to me and my career over the years however i must insist that finding information about, sharing the address & showing up at my home is inappropriate. We will be moving and i hope that going forward personal privacy will be respected

Also i would never want to contact authorities in regards to fans or people who just want to meet me but circling my home in a vehicle over and over is simply not acceptable. Please understand we are just regular people and stop this unnecessary situation.

Sadly, Biersack is not the only musician who’s been forced to move following fan harassment. Earlier this year, Panic! At The Disco’s Brendon Urie revealed on Twitter that he was forced to buy a new home after feeling unsafe in his old house.

Urie wrote, “As time progressed, so did the amount of letters. Not just letters and gifts, this soon changed into visits and constant harassment from fans. It got so bad that I didn't feel safe in my own home.”
