I have edited this post as it is NOT the video clip I thought it was originally.
All I have to say is: to each his own.

it is VERY odd, and very creepy. The scary thing is, that is NOTHIGN compared to some Spring Awakening fans.

I'm friends with this girl. I'm actually in Part 1 of her Spring Awakening video. She's such a sweetheart but I do find her Spring Awakening obsession to be a little creepy - I will not lie.
Creeepy. And Mealz, you got a thumbs up from me too.

Why is this creepier than the other things the fans do? I'm thinking I missed something. Blake is a genuinely sweet guy who understands that SA has a lot of rabid, young fans with a need to obsess about things like a Bway show. He was in no danger and she was just a giggly girl who acted like a kid. No worries.
Full disclosure: I don't understand why anyone would wait around outside a stage door to meet someone, don't get the idea of the autograph (if you want to say 'I liked your work', just say it - you don't need to get something in return), & certainly don't understand why anyone would go through the trouble of making a stage door gift. But, hey, to each his own.

That is definitely creepy, uncalled for behaviour. Not because Blake was in any real danger or anything (she was just a giggling, socially awkward fangirl), but because it's a complete breach of personal space and privacy. The scrapbook, the video camera...it really does creep me out. I'm not fan of SA, but I'm impressed that Blake handled the situation so graciously.
I rarely post comments on youtube, but the video maya linked to goes far above fan adoration and into the category of creepy stalker that I simply had to post a response.
