You have written on Yann's talk page
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Yann#copyright_whatever
"Those images were explicitly emailed to me from the celebs.", a
sentence which sounds like an argument proving that this is OK for you
to put them online on commons.wikimedia.org.
But, in a normal case, the celebrity does not have any right on these
pictures. The photograph who has shot the picture owns the copyright,
not the celebrity.
Emmanuel
