LONDON: Welsh singer Charlotte Church has built a pub at the bottom of her garden - because she's fed up with fans taking pictures of her on their cell phones when she goes out drinking.

The Crazy Chick hitmaker enjoys boozing with her sports star boyfriend Gavin Henson, but she's been forced out of public venues for fear her exploits will be snapped by fans.

So the couple has created their own bar in the grounds of their farmhouse in Cardiff, Wales to allow them to party behind closed doors.

She says, "It's a sort of pub. I don't like going into town any more because everybody's got camera phones. Gavin and I still haven't learned to drink responsibly. It might happen one day, but I doubt it. We'll be 50 and still causing havoc!"
