U.K. shutterbugs are gonna have to pull out the long lenses if they want a shot of Amy Winehouse from now on.

The 25-year-old "Rehab" singer has won a court order preventing paparazzi from snapping pics outside her north London home, her spokesman confirms to the BBC.

Photographers are now banned from following or approaching Winehouse within 100 yards of the house. The antiharassment injunction is now hanging outside her home in Enfield.

However, all is never well in Winehouse's world.

The trouble-plagued British songbird was hospitalized for dehydration on Friday in St. Lucia, where she's headlining the annual jazz festival next week.

Her spokesman confirms that Amy spent the night in the hospital after fainting at her Caribbean home. He said that prior to passing out, she was "running around" with children and failed to drink enough water.
