Rebecca Black Interview: 'Friday' Singer Discusses the Dark Side of Fame

[@Reesicup]

the people who send serious death threats to a 13 yr old girl because she sang a song that they did not like are truly disturbed. In fact I am legitimately concerned for humanity.

[@dailyvalorantclips2103]

I don't really have a side. Freedom of speech freedom of making this vid.

[@omegabeast6847]

What are you? A hater of haters? You won't change anything. They are right when she was young it sounded like she was holding her nose. She is better now at singing but her lyrics are so self centered no one likes them...

I think Friday is a pretty terrible song but I also think bullying a 13 yr old kid is much more wrong than exposing the world to a bad song.

[@Nationalarmycpt]

Agreed. Just means they have no character or self confidence.

[@daydreaminavenue]

[@lazybeastz182]

[@ryanciani3324]

its not terrible its great

[@IslaRoseAtkinson]

I don’t think her singing is terrible. But the lyrics are terrible.

[@sugary_sugar]

The fact that so many people bashed on Rebecca Black because she made a crappy song is unreal. Like...wtf? If your best friend made a really crappy song, would you tell them that they are ugly and to drink bleach? God I can't believe how so many people jump at the chance to bully someone for the smallest reasons.

[@Otis_.]

Then again, most people wouldn't care if their friend made some crappy autotune. But when it comes to people like Rebecca Black or any other artist. They'll treat them like trash, garbage, and won't even bother to give them a chance. Hence, why people will tell her to 'drink bleach' because she's already done fucked up. Some people are not willing for them to improve, and being 'constructive' when you talk about Friday is nearly impossible. Because she's already is shown to be the average '16 year old girl' type of personality that no one wants to even care about.

[@overdrive7349]

Cause they are sad, cruel, miserable, pathetic people

[@celineshaw3171]

No. No they were not bullying. They’re just cowards who are too scared to say anything to her face, so they try to act brave and hide behind a phone screen.

[@Dallasdeckard]

Say what you want about her, but this kid has guts and healthy self-esteem galore! Honestly, how many 13-year-olds could deal with the hate directed her way? How many adults could deal with that, let alone a tween. Most would melt down and we'd be reading about their suicide. Yes, Friday was a terrible song and she sounded nasally and off-key. However, that was mostly due to the bad producing and the fact that her body was going through puberty, which effects one's voice. How many of us sound spectacular while we're going through that? She didn't give up. She didn't give into the hate. She didn't whine and cry and go hide under a rock. Instead, she buckled down and came back with a new song. Her new song, Saturday is even better. She might not be the greatest singer or performer, but she a damn good role model for young girls who may be facing adversity. She doesn't give up and sends the message that you can perverse even when people are doing their damnedest to destroy you. She stays positive, doesn't take it personally, and keeps fighting. No matter what you may think about her singing, there is no denying that she's one hell of a tough kid and deserves respect for that, if for no other reason.

ITS NOT HER FUALT. FIRST of all it was HER MOM who paid 4000 dollars and rebbeca didnt even write the song. And people are just making shitty rumors because they want to entertain haters because most of the people are haters and they want to add more. SO HATERS STOP PUTTING HATE COMMENTS BECAUSE SHE IS A HUMAN. Just like you guys. How would you guys feel if the whole entire internet new your most embarrassing moment. But the only difference is that beca was just a young girl who wanted to follow her dream. It's not the mom's fault neither, she just wanted the best for rebbecca. And I am not even asking to be a fan, But to give consideration !!! And sheesh she is trying to start all over again and there is haters, just get over it haters!!!!!!!!!!

Like she deserved to feel bad about her work?? What the hell I can see now it was childish insecurity that brought that out of me and so many others. She’s incredible for how much she has persevered and come into her own. Especially now, she has bloomed into a person who knows her worth, and is inspirationally unafraid of being “BIG”. She went through hell to get there. She’s strong and she is a great example of resilience in spite of shitstorms of cyberbullying

[@DucksDeLucks]

***** We're not talking opera here. Her voice is adequate for the material. The recording does give it an unpleasantly nasal quality though I think you can engineer that out --- maybe they've already fixed it. Her voice is no worse than a lot of others.

+DucksDeLucks how bout she puts in the fucking word and learns to fucking sing better? engineer it out what the fuck is this world coming to fuck stupid people that listen to pop listen to real fucking music by real artists and singers and musicians

Charles Cocce Yeah, like she's the only singer using an autotune or other studio tricks. Why does she have to pay for the sins of the entire music industry? She was only 14 and probably didn't even have a choice. And in the end I still think it's a catchy tune.

[@OverdoseCoach]

i was saying she sucks....because its not fair to people with actual talent that shes fucking cheating. i was saying she should fucking learn to actually sing better instead of "engineering it out" like one person suggested. either that or get the fuck out the game. im sick of this shit. im a real artist. i can actually sing. i write my own music. fuck this bitch

[@DucksDeLucks]

Charles Cocce You are being too harsh on a 14 year-old when so many famous artists have had "engineering help." The Beach Boys didn't play their own instruments. Neither did a lot of famous bands. The artistry in Friday lies in the composing, video-making, and the lyrics, however flawed. I agree with you that the use of technology nowadays is a threat to genuine artists, but technology has a way of eliminating the personal touch.

[@PhilShary]

It's not the girl's fault - her mother is mental. No wonder her husband left her if she ever had one. Rebecca is hopeless, however - she will have to continue living in denial or face the truth, change her name and appearance and start a life-long therapy.

[@pamelamo1912]

Everyone is something! You go Rebecca and I look forward to supporting you in your future projects! Anyone who's hateful for no reason hates themselves and should find someone to talk to about it instead of being hurtful to others for NO reason, whatsoever.

0:57 Did you notive they covered up the likes vs dislikes with the button? HA.

[@zaria.rejean]

Oh yeah, lol.

[@moikes714]

+NerdyNinja Gaming LMFAO

[@vestabeats6007]

So paltry :D

[@frankoboy24]

People, if you looked Rebecca up... you would see that she has a successful KZbin channel and has uploaded videos. One of which showcased her talent when she sang Lorde's 'Royals' acapella.

[@emileemay3208]

People like this bother me, Rebecca was very young and people were hating on her voice like she's 13......... She probably didn't hit puberty p, if you think she's fat, go get your eyes checked because your legally blind, she's not ugly she's very pretty she's young too, people, she was 13 at the time, like how immature are you, animals these days, Rebecca is a beautiful, awesome singer, kind of girl, I'm glad Katy perry, and lady gaga stuck up for her, I guess "more popular artist" (according to the world at the time") is what you could call them, people if your a hater that's ok you keep hating but keep this in mind nobody but other haters actually take that crap seriously (unless you do that's ok too but stop think what they Say is true) your amazing Rebecca people if you see bullying or haters stick for the person who is being bullied or hated on they need all the help they can get.

Emilee May respect to u (:

[@xoxo_dd886]

She's so strong and has such a high self esteem to be able to read those comments

[@crazyjojo101]

I support her 100%!!! She's amazing!

[@chelseahickey5798]

5:35 the way she said no made me want to die

[@mentallyunstable5810]

LOOOOL

[@samw.8734]

"Know"

[@caroldeluxe]

People who bullied her just for a song are delusional and has issues af. People are so cruel omg

[@Michael_Comment]

This girl has gone through a huge unnecessary struggle. I’m absolutely humiliated by the amount of hate she got from making that song I am with what Lady Gaga said about her and completely agree with her. Why the hell does the internet feel the need to put a teen girl’s life at risk just because of a song if you don’t like it, you don’t like it don’t listen to it but at the same time don’t bully her just because you think she “sucks at singing” it was her first time doing something like this and I bet you would feel the same as she did when she walked into a recording studio and made that song. She really doesn’t deserve the hate she was given back in those days

[@Quimberlyann]

I love her, the fact that she was so strong throughout all of this hate is simply amazing and says alot about her

[@TheGreekPianist]

I feel so bad she had to resort to homeschooling because of all the bullying 😢 as a victim of bullying I know how horrible it can feel

[@TrentonF505]

"You'll never be pretty" I bet that person feels real stupid rn

[@charlenemack7040]

I’m one of those horrible people that thought the song Friday was really really really the worst thing I’ve ever heard in my entire life! Rebecca, if you were in front of me right now… I would apologize to you, and ask you if you would like a hug! I’m truly sorry. It really is an awesome, wonderful, fantastic song. I’m 71 years old and I am a fan of yours now! 😊❤👍🤟🤘✌️💖💖💖

[@theamazingaviator1084]

am i the only one who still LIKES this song

[@ervinm.5065]

Did you see it guys? Did you see it? Stop make jokes about Rebecca because it's not her fault. Start to insult her mother because just the devil can destroy her daughter's life

[@MrFudgelets]

wow, I quite liked rebbeca black, but this interview makes her sound very arrogant

[@Benleyy]

She handled this with such grace & elegance. And she actually became a good singer. She has nothing to be embarrassed about. We were nasty back in the day

[@milkjuice]

Wtf hair and makeup? I'm the same age as her and I can even put on eyeliner or lip gloss! TF.

[@jordanreynolds873]

+Luscarly Castro Cause ur pretty without it :)

[@sifqn2596]

Luscarly Castro *can't

[@lindachiluli7428]

Luscarly Castro and then?😞

[@Katherine-fq6zz]

This is so old, but I have a genuine question. How the heck can you not put on lip gloss?

[@neoisis9373]

Katherine maybe Luscarly meant she was not allowed to wear any makeup at that age. Not that she was physically incapable of putting on lip gloss.

[@marywang2659]

i really don't get why people hate rebecca

[@MyMadrid14]

can't respect this girl whatsoever ... Her mom paid people to basically "make her famous" . she didn't become popular because of her so called "talent", but because Friday annoyed so many people . I don't like that she got death threats, cause that's just inhuman. Everything else was literally given to her . She was too young at the time to make that song, at this age would've been a better age... she sounds like she has made a point.. when she really hasn't, and she thinks she's gonna be big big like Katy Perry, Laddy Gaga kinda big. Doubtful

[@davyjones6705]

first of all those people you mentioned katy herry laby gago and what are just as talentless if not for special effects and superficial looks they would not be popular so shut up idiot

[@Ls1fastguy]

I completely agree. The bullying and threats were way too much but at the end of the day the song was definitively terrible and she has no singing talent. KP and lady gaga are idiots but gaga has a point. The girl isnt making money cause shes good shes making money because shes famous, just like gaga.

[@Ls1fastguy]

Also you can tell her mom was behind all of this. Shes trying to make her famous for her own selfish gains.

[@lokzillah]

And that's why u have no friends

[@janirahscott6294]

Tad not nice your a poop your fat fat pop

[@Jamesmacncheese]

Why can't ppl just accept that she tried her best singing it's not nice to leave mean comments

[@SmokeySmudgeStudio]

Why didnt she learn the real message which is to never sign a contract with Patrice Wilson that makes you publish awful music? It's not her fail but she's way to naive.

[@leilacabral9597]

Well, she was just 13... Actually her mother was naive

[@SmokeySmudgeStudio]

I am 14 and I realised that 2 years ago!

[@megawhitemaster7740]

stop hate!!!!

[@danielortman2534]

Some people were really mean, but most people just liked making fun of a painfully bad song.

[@ricoque5550]

i didnt like friday but that does not give anyone the excuse to send death threats. plus she aint even fat whoever sent that is wierd

[@benedictcumbersnatched7735]

look her song sucked ass, but she is just a young girl and she doesn't really deserve so much hate, just my thoughts

[@patriotsecurityservices4639]

She seems more mature than her mum. I think her mum was trying to use her to get her own daughter famous

[@TutorialsWithNayeem]

Yeah

[@sinosoviet]

Her mom though... She was Internet famous, but she wasn't really famous.

[@sinosoviet]

***** Yes, in some way (which is why I said internet famous). She's not famous like Johnny Depp or Tim Burton, and they are FAMOUS. She is well-known, of course, but I'm not sure if you should call her "famous".

[@maple_beikon]

Those are actors...why are you comparing them. I'm pretty sure if you say her name most people will know who she is. Which makes her famous right? And she gets recognized on the streets. I don't know what differs from Internet fame and regular fame? She did get famous through the Internet but that doesn't make it an Internet fame.

[@yangonmovieclubcompany6874]

Dream do come True! We Love you Rebecca! You are a hero for victims of Cyber Bullying! May God Bless you!

[@emilyryan892]

Lol people hate her so much, yet she gets a paid a shit load of money for producing a music video and starring in a famous singers video. So basically SHE WINS!!!!!!!!

[@proudtoast6446]

I think that's exactly why people hate her

[@Violentsymphony]

I'd rather have friends

[@NoName-tt2qi]

At my school when it is friday we play the song on the loud speaker and every one gets up and dances and sings

[@jessicaanne3345]

her mom seems desperate for fame tbh

[@JordynLaRee]

watching this in 2017 and she's showing everyone now. her music is great!

[@KindnessMarathon]

Yeah I feel you man! People call me an old man because I like singing and listening to Sam Cooke! What is with these young whippersnappers these days?

[@sydneybuchholz1001]

[@iamthealphaaaaa]

This people are toxic your sending death threats to a 13 year old girl over a song you don’t have to like the song but risking your life just over a song that’s just so dramatic your putting her life in danger just over a song.

[@jamesposter1924]

I felt so bad for her tbh. She was a fucking normal 13 year old wanting to make her dream! But I'm so happy of how she handled it so well. She is so mature I look up to her tbh she's such a mature person and she never fell for her fame like regular teen stars
