Millions of people know Rebecca Black as the 14-year-old girl whose catchy song “Friday” stuck in their heads. What they don’t know about this teenager from Anaheim Hills, California is that she has been performing since she was a toddler and is dedicated to a career in music.
Rebecca began dance classes at 3 years old; she started piano at 7 and has continued with vocal lessons since the age of 9. She attended two years of Musical Theater Camps at the Orange County School for Performing Arts as well as various other programs in both Southern California and New York. She has performed in many musicals, including the lead role in “Oklahoma,” “Guys and Dolls” and “Best of Broadway Goes Pop” where she landed the solo “Breakaway.”
When Rebecca recorded her first song “Friday” it went viral within a month. Everyone took notice. Nick and Joe Jonas Tweeted the lyrics and performed “Friday” in concert, as did Justin Bieber. Lady Gaga told a group at Google headquarters, “Rebecca Black is genius.” Ryan Seacrest booked her on his radio show. Jay Leno invited her to be a guest on his show. Simon Cowell said he wants to meet her because, “Anyone who can create this much controversy within a week, I want to meet. I love people like that.” Other late night shows jumped in, and even the mega-hit TV show, “Glee,” performed “Friday.” Black was indeed an overnight star.
Rebecca has recently released her second single titled “My Moment.” Within the first 36 hours after release it had over 6 million views on YouTube. Now, she is putting the finishing touches on her debut EP, which is scheduled for release in the fall of this year. She has since performed her hit song “Friday” on stage with Katy Perry at Katy’s concert in Los Angeles and performed a medley of both “Friday” and “My Moment” on America’s Got Talent, one of the highest rated televisions shows. She also won Choice Web Star at the 2011 Teen Choice Awards.
Although her life is now filled with recording sessions, photo shoots, and interviews, she still finds time to do normal teenage things. She loves going to the mall, hanging out with her friends, and putting together colorful outfits.
