That rant is absurd. If you are a photographer and you want to take photos of a famous musician on a very expensive and well produced stage you have to do it by her rules. You can take photos of a model you pick on a stage you create and then you get to write the rules. Or you can even take a photo of Taylor Swift in a public place like a street or airport without any permission or rights issues. You just can't take photos inside her private, for profit, and expensive to produce stage show unless you agree to her terms. You also can't walk on to a movie set with your own video camera and have the rights to that footage either. On what planet is this surprising or problematic?
