Remind me why I don’t carry model releases again.

Got model releases? No? This little bit of info should inspire you.

Ann Kirsten Kennis says there isn’t a release for the picture of her on the cover of the Vampire Weekend release Contra. According to Entertainment Weekly:

“Kennis is asking the band, label XL Recordings, and photographer Tod Brody for at least $2 million for this alleged misappropriation of identity, arguing that ‘the album design, in which the Photograph is featured prominently, was a substantial factor in generating recognition and buzz for the Contra album, thus increasing sales and profits.’ ”
