A Southern California woman took her love for Kenny Chesney a little too far this week when she tried to arrange a late Valentine’s night rendezvous with her heartthrob, unfortunately without an invite.
Melissa Mansfield broke into the 43-year-old country singer’s home in Franklin, Tennessee, in the early hours of Wednesday morning and was arrested when she was discovered drinking wine and smoking cigarettes by the pool of his palatial rural mansion, reported 10News.com.
The woman from Murrieta, California carefully planned out her lovesick ambush, after traveling from Knoxville to Nashville on a Greyhound bus, she then took a limousine – which she claims he booked for her – a further 25 miles to his gated home.
When busted, Mansfield told police that she had been invited by the homeowner and she was having a relationship with him, according to Hugh Tharpe with the Williamson County Sheriff's Office. Chesney wasn’t home, or even in the state, but at least his unexpected house guest didn’t come empty handed.
