Rebecca Black initially gained widespread attention in 2011 when her song “Friday” began circulating for all the wrong things. However, she has reemerged and recovered ownership of her notorious music ten years later.
When the singer made an appearance on Today Extra in September 2022, she seemed to be all grown up, different from how we recall her looking as a teenager in the music video for Friday. She said this when appearing on the program that she released a remix of the infamous song for the 10-year celebration where she rewrote the song & made it her own.
What Does Rebecca Black Think of Friday Now?
When questioned why the song is still so well-known (or notorious, if you prefer), the performer said it would be “impossible” to answer. She stated that “I was 13 at the time, and I was just a kid who was trying to find my way, trying to discover something that I would love,”
Despite widespread mockery upon its first release, on the song’s tenth anniversary Rebecca is happy that she “reclaimed” it with a new, original remix. She now takes pride in the song’s global success and the “special” place it has in the hearts of her followers.
What is Rebecca Black’s Net Worth?
According to Slate, although Rebecca had a hit that went viral in 2011, she might have only made as low as $30,000 from Friday’s sales after YouTube & the label got their respective cuts of the proceeds. In recent times, her wealth has been projected to range from half a million dollars to five million US dollars.
The Newest Songs from Rebecca Black
