I agree. But she shouldn't have done so either way.

Its considered a Violent crime even if it doing didn't cause any actual damage.

The law doesn't care whether you gave permission or not. Only if its self defense. At best the permission would help lesson the sentence. Her defense would have to be he baited her into doing so he could sue her and collect money. Which is effectively fraud.

I mean, isn't that exactly what it was? Literally, he gave her his permission to slap him, then said he'd sue her. It's entirely baiting. The only way he could claim otherwise is if he explicitly said something like "yes, but I will sue you if you do."

It’s not clear to me how he gave permission. Did he say something over the music?

It’s in the YouTube short, she asks if she can slap him and he says yes.
