In the world of high-end photography, Annie Leibovitz's portfolio is the equivalent of The Beatles' catalog -- and she's in danger of losing it all.

Leibovitz, who took the infamous last photo of John Lennon before he was assassinated, is facing catastrophic financial problems -- if she doesn't pay back a $24 million loan by Tuesday, she'll lose the rights to every big photo she's ever taken. The list includes that controversial Miley Cyrus photo from last year, the pregnant Demi Moore Vanity Fair cover, the cover of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run" -- and really every interesting VF cover for the last 20 years or so.
In classic Michael Jackson-esque form, Leibovitz sunk deep into debt and then got a loan using her photo catalog (estimated at $40 million) and homes as collateral.
Tuesday is D-Day.

Some bands sell t-shirts -- others sell special edition box sets. The White Stripes sell custom made cameras known internationally for their imperfections and the unique images those imperfections produce.
The JACK Holga and MEG Diana+ Lomographic cameras adhere to the band's red, white and black color scheme, and even don a peppermint swirl on the frame advance dial.
Each all-plastic camera comes with its own set of accessories. The MEG comes with "Nobody Knows How To Talk to Children" ringflash and custom Peppermint Film Mask Filter. The JACK is equipped with an additional fish-eye lens, three filter set and custom Peppermint Len Filter.
Only 3,000 units of each camera are being produced, so photographic music fans should hurry.
