Most people think like this: I have my face on that photo so that photo is mine not the photographer's. Photographer has rights to distribute, sell do whatever

Most people think like this: I have my face on that photo so that photo is mine not the photographer's. Photographer has rights to distribute, sell do whatever until the limit that is not harming the subject in the photo. In this case it is an artist she can only sue him if that photo harms her reputation. Instead her attitude harmed her reputation.

Otherwise, Nike could put up a sign 'All images here belong to us' in their store, photograph the next celebrity walking into their store and then use the picture of the celebrity in all promotion material without their endorsement.
