When Rihanna released her video for S&M, I initially thought it must have been directed by celebrity photographer David LaChapelle. Surprisingly, it was not.

LaChapelle is now suing Rihanna claiming her video copies the “feel, tone, mood, theme, colours, props, settings, decors, wardrobe and lighting” of eight of his images. You can see the still images on Daily Mail. I can’t say LaChappelle is wrong…
