They didn't approach her, they approached her agent, which should've the point of contact for either case.

As to whether she owns the rights of that performance or somebody else, we'd have to read the contract; most likely she doesn't, though.

Probably anyone but her inner circle can "approach her" directly. I would expect any other kind of connection to be made through her agent.
