I have been following several stories the past few weeks, during my overwhelming schedule. Rebecca Black is one of the online "sensations" that stood out. Story after story I have read both fantastic and horrific reviews of this young singer.
With the fantastic stories I would read disagreeing comments from readers. With the horrific reviews I would read agreeing comments. I needed to get down to the bottom of this story as to why the press is so hyped up on Rebecca Black and why the readers are not buying it.
Please, watch the following video from YouTube.com.
I don't know what the media was thinking in turning this video into a sensation with "positive" reviews. I will give Rebecca credit, she was dressed modestly, exemplified a "fun, fun; fun, fun" attitude, and showed us that all 12 year old boys are now driving cars (or are they 13, 10, 9?).
Before I took a second look at the youtube hit, I asked my self, WWSCD (What would Simon Cowell do)? With this new perspective of mine, I watched the video, again. I believe Simon would say, what the **** was that? No one would watch this (despite the 49,000,000+ views). I want my 4 minutes back!
With my personal perspective, all I can think of is "what fun?" Who is this girl? What? Huh? I still can't think straight about this.
The media does not know what entertainment is anymore but I'm sure Rebecca is getting her 15 minutes of fame. I know, people are ranting - Rebecca's the next Justin Beiber! NO! She is not. Justin has real talent, and I don't like the kid.
Rebecca, this blog is not meant to be an insult because I still do not know what to say about your video and song. You must be a sweet girl or a spoiled brat with a rich daddy but that's not the point. The point is.............. WHAT?
Because of the media hype and the 49,000,000+ youtube views, Rebecca - YOU DESERVE IT!
