AceShowbiz - DJ Zedd, whose real name is Anton Zaslavski, has sought a temporary restraining order against a woman named Rezwan Senobarian. According to Zedd, Senobarian has been harassing him and his staff, impersonating him over the phone and email, and even showing up at his Encino residence demanding to speak with him.
The 34-year-old musician, originally from Saratov, Soviet Russia, and raised in Germany, reported that the woman's behavior has been increasingly erratic. In documents obtained by TMZ, Zedd stated that he had no prior acquaintance with Senobarian and is baffled by her unsolicited visits and communications.
"She has been acting erratically and attempting to impersonate me, which is both disturbing and confusing," Zedd told the LAPD.
DJ Zedd, famous for hits like "Beautiful Now" and "Clarity," is requesting that the restraining order prohibit Senobarian from approaching him, his residence, his job, and his close associates, including his personal assistant and security personnel.
This unsettling incident comes at a busy time in Zedd's life. The DJ recently sold one of his Encino homes, a property he purchased from Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner for $15.2 million in 2021. The luxurious estate, featuring 10 bedrooms and 13 bathrooms, fetched $17.125 million in its latest sale.
Zedd, who has been passionate about music since childhood, learning the piano and drums before delving into DJing in 2010, has built a successful career over the years. His big break came in 2012 with the release of "Clarity," a track that propelled him to fame and cemented his place in the electronic music scene.
The artist's choice of moniker dates back to his school days in Germany. With another student named Anton in his class, Zaslavski adopted "Zedd," a nickname stemming from the letter Z's English pronunciation to avoid confusion.
While Zedd continues to enchant audiences with his music, he faces this distressing legal challenge aimed at ensuring his safety and peace of mind.
