What legal restrictions are there to displaying celebrity photography online and are there providers?

Tags: Celebrity photography online (Coopyright and licences)
I'm a new Web Designer and I'm just getting a feel for all the different areas of business there are online. Something I want to understand is how there can be so many websites not only displaying photography of celebritys but selling it and making money directly from the access to special content.

I would be interested in showing celebrity images on a new website idea that I have but obviously want to avoid the issues that come with breaking copyright rules and I dont want to be asked to remove hundreds of images by a solictor!

Am I right do you need to get rights to display them or are there no restrictions at all. Is it country dependant or what?

Thanks
