The photographers are 100% in the right here. They made the image, not KK... she’s just in it. People who are in images don’t own them because they’re in them. There are issues of privacy and use that complicate the issue for sure, but copyright protects the creators (photographers, artists, writers, etc).

In this case it’s complicated because the Kardashians probably called the paps ahead of time. So they likely did consent to it as they would a photoshoot.

I agree. But the Kardashians are further confusing because I understand that they often let paparazzi know where they will be and arrange to be photographed. But then it’s still a picture of them...

I don’t care enough about this particular issue but I wonder, in general, how many times a week their lawyers are getting hit with lawsuits that we don’t even hear about and which ones are the most bullshit.
