Man held on $200,000 bail

Hilary Duff's life has been threatened by a man who wants to date her.

Maksim Miakovsky was arrested at a Residence Inn on Friday, Nov. 3, for allegedly threatening to kill the "Cinderella Story" star, reports TMZ.com.

According to unidentified sources, the 18-year-old man was at the Residence Inn this past weekend and told a private investigator from Sunset Protective Services that he intended to kill Duff at an event she had scheduled for Sunday.

He's currently being held on $200,000 bail at the Manhattan Beach jail and is scheduled for arraignment on Tuesday.

The Russian emigree is already known for his obsessive interest in Duff who, with her boyfriend Joel Madden of the band Good Charlotte, filed for a restraining order against Miakovsky. This is the first time the media has caught wind of his intentions to harm the tween star however. Previously, he had stated that he intended to be Duff's boyfriend and that he would remove any "enemies" that stood in their way. Among those enemies are Madden, Duff's mother and sister, and Duff's personal manager Susan Curtis.

The legal documents refer to Miakovsky as "Max," and paint a picture of a man with a misguided romantic agenda. He has threatened that "bad things" would happen if he were thwarted, cased the grocerty store where Madden shopped and questioned Duff's neighbors while looking for her house.

Duff, 19, first won fans as the klutzy "Lizzie Mcguire" on the Disney Channel. Since then, she's starred in "The Lizzie McGuire Movie," two "Cheaper by the Dozen" films, "A Cinderella Story," "Raise Your Voice" and "The Perfect Man" and "Material Girls" with sister Haylie. The Sisters Duff also collaborated by lending their voice talents to the upcoming animated "Foodfight!," in which they play items in a grocery store.
