| ->> So even if Ann Kirsten Kennis doesn't own the rights to the photo, couldn't she still sue if she didn't sign a model release? Her image / likeness is being used for a commercial purpose, thats worth something. |

| ->> The question to me is who is going to pay? The photographer w/o a model release, the label, or the band. I'm sure they will settle for less than 2M, but this is still a costly mistake. |

->> No Model Release=Deep Doo-Doo!!
I think the model should have sued under the "No Model Release" premise, she has more standing there.
