The irony of paparazzi suing celebrities they harass to no end, which sometimes even lead to their death like Princess Diana, over a picture they shot while stalking them.🤦‍♀️

ALTHOUGH the default owner of an image is usually the photographer and therefore subjects of the photograph don’t own the IP … I just don’t agree with copyright law!!

If this was a photo from a shoot I'd understand this. But not being able to use a picture taken of you in an opportunitisitc manner, probably without your consent, in a public context seems a bit weird.

That's ridiculous maybe the paps shouldn't take photos of her in the first place without her permission.

What’s D’ya lipa?

Imagine getting sued for sharing a photo of yourself on your social media, one that you probably previously didn’t even know existed 🙄🤣

ok so where did she find that photo? she should sue the publisher for breaching data protection law.

i thought paparazzi are stalkers damn

Imagine dreaming of being a photographer and ending up paparazzi. Grotty industry.

The question is who owns the rights to an image of themselves taken without their consent?

Paparazzis shouldn't be allowed to exist. Sorry not sorry. Nobody would be allowed to take pictures of you without your consent and profit from it.

Total pi$$ take. Sued for a picture taken of herself without permission. Worlds gone mad

Should have asked the photographersit's permission, after all, its their work she is exploiting.

Calling paparazzi scum is a personal affront to scum.

Paparazzi hypocrites

Know the paps have a job to do or whatever, but surely you can't copyright a picture of someone against themselves? I understand copyrighting it against other paps using it. But the person in the pic should be able to do what they like? Doesn't seem fair to me otherwise.
