Justin Bieber's ex wins three-year restraining order

Justin Bieber's ex-girlfriend has been granted a three-year restraining order against a man who allegedly threatened to pay an assassin $5,000 to kill her.

Jasmine Villegas, 17, received a temporary order earlier this month (Aug11) stating that 33-year-old Steven Cintron must stay at least 100 yards (91 metres) away from her and her family.

Cintron allegedly sent Villegas thousands of messages and posted YouTube.com videos to her - but it was one, in which he allegedly threatened the pretty teenager, that put her on red alert.

Villegas, who appeared in Bieber's Baby video, claims Cintron also threatened family members, and a judge in Los Angeles has now extended the temporary injunction to a three-year restraining order, according to TMZ.com.

If Cintron violates the order he could be sentenced to jail.
