A disturbing account of stalking behavior targeting Miley Cyrus has emerged in a new Investigation Discovery docuseries "Stalking the Stars." The show features revelations from Larilyn Adair, sister of Mark McLeod, who allegedly stalked Cyrus in 2009 when the singer was just 16 years old and starring in Disney's "Hannah Montana."

According to Adair's testimony, her then-50-year-old brother developed an unhealthy obsession with the teenage star, even planning to propose marriage to her.
