Terry is in Trouble

Last week, the Danish model Rie Rasmussen confronted photographer Terry Richardson in Paris, and said he abuses his position of power within the industry to sexually harass young women with impunity. "They are too afraid to say no because their agency booked them on the job and are too young to stand up for themselves," said Rasmussen. "I told him, 'What you do is completely degrading to women. I hope you know you only fuck girls because you have a camera, lots of fashion contacts and get your pictures in Vogue.'"
Rather than defend himself, Richardson allegedly fled the scene, and instead called Rasmussen's agency to complain about her.
Jezebel published many more tales of Richardson's behavior and they are quite disturbing. I wonder if this will influence his career or will only bring him more jobs. After all "Uncle Terry" has some powerful friends.
