JAPAN'S Olympic gymnastics champion Kohei Uchimura has experienced the darker side of celebrity after complaining of a schoolgirl "stalker", local media reported yesterday.
The 23-year-old, who won the all-around title in London earlier this month, said the teenager had chased after him on her bicycle.
"I was scared so I ran into the house and hid," Uchimura said. "There's no doubt that was a stalker. I'm happy for the support," added the triple world champion.
"But if you come to my house I'm going to think you're a stalker."
Just three days ago, after an open-top bus parade for Japan's Olympic medalist attracted 500,000 people, Uchimura said he felt "like a celebrity".
"I have to forget London and concentrate on what's next," he said, adding that he had taken to wearing sunglasses to disguise himself. "I'm still pretty drained. I'd like the fans to just stick to (seeing me at) the venue."
