The man said he had identified a train station reflected in the singer's eyes in a selfie she posted online.
The 26-year-old then waited at the station until he saw his victim and followed her to her home, police said.
The suspect told police that after zooming in on the image of her eyes, he used Google Street View to identify the station.
"In other words, the risk of a so-called 'digital stalker' is on the rise," he said.
