Trivia / Rebecca Black

• Approval of God: Her favorite "Friday" parody is the Brock's Dub.
• Creator Backlash: Black absolutely detests her claim to fame "Friday", with this reaction video from 2013 making her thoughts clear.
• Development Hell: She had been reportedly working on a debut album since 2011 but it would be six years before she even released an EP. In 2022, she finally announced that her debut album " Let Her Burn" will be released for early 2023.
• Humble Beginnings: In the span of two months, she went from Vanity Publishing Justin Bieber cash-in to wealthy songstress with a very distinct persona.
• No-Hit Wonder: Not even "Friday" cracked the top 100 in most played songs in America the week it was released to radio and only peaked at 58 (it only cracked the top 40 in Australia and New Zealand).
• One-Hit Wonder: Neither "My Moment" nor "Person of Interest" got as much attention as Friday did. Both songs were forgotten quickly.
  • "In Your Words" is probably her least popular song, Growing the Beard aside.
• Promoted Fangirl: She was a big Katy Perry fan before getting a cameo in her video "Last Friday Night".
• What Could Have Been: She ended up recording "Friday" after rejecting another ARK Music Factory song, "Superhero" - the latter would have been a love song, and Rebecca thought it wasn't age appropriate at the time.
