Is Rebecca Black's "Friday" the Worst Song/Music Video of All Time?

After viewing the video once, it appears to be.

The song has absolutely pitiful lyrics that left me feeling like my IQ has decreased.

These lyrics are:

(Yeah, Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ark)
Oo-ooh-ooh, hoo yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah-ah-ah
Yeah-ah-ah
Yeah-ah-ah
Yeah-ah-ah
Yeah, yeah, yeah

[Rebecca Black - Verse 1]

7am, waking up in the morning
Gotta be fresh, gotta go downstairs
Gotta have my bowl, gotta have cereal
Seein’ everything, the time is goin’
Tickin’ on and on, everybody’s rushin’
Gotta get down to the bus stop
Gotta catch my bus, I see my friends (My friends)

Kickin’ in the front seat
Sittin’ in the back seat
Gotta make my mind up
Which seat can I take?

It’s Friday, Friday
Gotta get down on Friday
Everybody’s lookin’ forward to the weekend, weekend
Friday, Friday
Gettin’ down on Friday
Everybody’s lookin’ forward to the weekend

Partyin’, partyin’ (Yeah)
Partyin’, partyin’ (Yeah)
Fun, fun, fun, fun
Lookin’ forward to the weekend

[Rebecca Black - Verse 2]

7:45, we’re drivin’ on the highway
Cruisin’ so fast, I want time to fly
Fun, fun, think about fun
You know what it is
I got this, you got this
My friend is by my right
I got this, you got this
Now you know it

Kickin’ in the front seat
Sittin’ in the back seat
Gotta make my mind up
Which seat can I take?

[Chorus]

It’s Friday, Friday
Gotta get down on Friday
Everybody’s lookin’ forward to the weekend, weekend
Friday, Friday

[Bridge]

Yesterday was Thursday, Thursday

We-we-we so excited

We gonna have a ball today

Tomorrow is Saturday
And Sunday comes after...wards
I don’t want this weekend to end

[Rap Verse]

R-B, Rebecca Black
So chillin’ in the front seat (In the front seat)
In the back seat (In the back seat)
I’m drivin’, cruisin’ (Yeah, yeah)
Fast lanes, switchin’ lanes
Wit’ a car up on my side (Woo!)
(C’mon) Passin’ by is a school bus in front of me
Makes tick tock, tick tock, wanna scream
Check my time, it’s Friday, it’s a weekend
We gonna have fun, c’mon, c’mon, y’all

[Chorus]

It’s Friday, Friday
Gotta get down on Friday
Everybody’s lookin’ forward to the weekend, weekend

Gettin’ down on Friday
Everybody’s lookin’ forward to the weekend

Partyin’, partyin’ (Yeah)
Partyin’, partyin’ (Yeah)
Fun, fun, fun, fun
Lookin’ forward to the weekend

It’s Friday, Friday
Gotta get down on Friday
Everybody’s lookin’ forward to the weekend, weekend
Friday, Friday
Gettin’ down on Friday
Everybody’s lookin’ forward to the weekend

Partyin’, partyin’ (Yeah)
Partyin’, partyin’ (Yeah)
Fun, fun, fun, fun
Lookin’ forward to the weekend




Clearly, we would not have known the days of the week without Rebecca Black's god-awful song.

Unfortunately, the video isn't much better.

Based on the lyrics, one would assume that Rebecca Black was talking about a ride to school on the school bus. However, there is no school bus in the music video, and it seems strange that Black is waiting at a bus stop for her friends, who are all in a car driven by another friend.

The video is also very poorly crafted together. It starts off as sketches in a notebook and quite frankly reminds me of the intro to Pappyland. In a majority of the scenes, Black seems to be awkwardly placed, and almost looks as if she has been badly photoshopped into the scene. The shift from day to night is also extremely awkward. If the song is about riding a bus to school and getting through the school week The over-dramatic facial expressions (she looks like she's traumatized to the point of tears as she wonders where to sit...wtf?) also make Black look a bit like a clown and makes it nearly impossible to take it seriously.

Is it possible that this song/video is so bad that it's good? Very much so. The video already has over 2.2 million views on Youtube and the name "Rebecca Black" has been exploding all over Facebook, Twitter, and Google. Everyone has to find out who this girl is and why her song/video is so bad.

The absolute worst part of all of this is the fact that the song is horrible, yet so damn catchy...

Check out the video below:

Twitter War Starts Between Raz-B and Chris Brown after Raz-B Comments on Rihanna's Changed Relationship Status

The Twittersphere has once again exploded with a celebrity feud, this time involving ex-B2K member, Raz-B, and singer Chris Brown.

The arguement started after Raz-B stated his sympathy towards newly single singer and Chris Brown's ex-girlfriend, Rihanna.

However, Raz-B further continued, by tweeting, "Im just sittin here Thinking how can niggas like @ebenet & @ChrisBrown disrespect women as Intelligent as @HalleBerry11 @Rihanna."

Chris Brown responded by stating, "@razb2k nigga you want attention! Grow up nigga!!! Dick in da booty ass lil boy."

Raz-B answered this tweet by asking Chris, "Do you hit your boyfriend @andre_merritt like you do your women?", making allegations that Chris is gay and starting what would be the first of many homophobic remarks, many of which came from Chris. Chris even went so far as accusing Raz-B as being like "Peter Pan" and photoshopping a picture of Raz-B as Peter Pan as can be seen below:



Chris frequently apologized in his tweets to his followers and gay fans. However, I personally do not find it to be a sincere apology at all. Instead, it sounds like Chris's sad attempt to save his career and to protect himself from backlash and homophobic accusations, which are sure to come.

Raz-B responded to Chris Brown's apologies by stating, "Ur not homophobic, ur juz homosexual on the low! RT @chrisbrown I'm not homophobic! He's just disrespectful!!!", a comment that could cause Raz-B much backlash from his homosexual fans, and GLAAD as well. Like Chris, Raz-B also attempted to protect himself from allegations and scrutiny by posting, "hey followers.... i want to apologize for fostering homophobia tweets.. this has nothing to do against my followers...", an apology that once again seems to lack sincerity and simply seems to be the singer's attempt at salvaging his career and avoiding backlash.

Chris also frequently made claims that Raz-B was only talking about Chris Brown's 2008 beatdown on Rhianna for attention and to further advance his career. Raz-B had little to say about these accusations other than "@chrisbrown I luv how u resort 2 disrespectful low brow tactics when u clearly sabotaged ur own career by beating women!"

What does Raz-B's ex-B2K band mates have to say about the feud? No comments have yet been heard, but Raz-B stated through twitter, "tell yo cheerleader @1omarion 2 shut the fuck up b4 i send J BOOG 2 fuck HIS MaMa again", suggesting that the singer expects Omarion to take Chris's side, while J Boog is more likely to side with Raz-B.

What do you think of Raz-B and Chris Brown's twitter fight? Who do you think was wrong or right? I personally think that it was wrong for Raz-B to come at Chris Brown like that. It does sound to me like it's Raz-B's sad attempt to gain some spotlight and attention. However, it was very unwise for Chris Brown to respond to Raz-B's comments. He was just starting to earn a little bit more respect with his new music and the completion of his domestic abuse program. However, the comments and attacks that he made on Raz-B once again repainted him as being a monster and it is unlikely that he will gain much support from others following the fight, even though Raz-B was the one to start it. The homophobic remarks from both Raz-B and Chris Brown were stupid and immature and I'd be surprised if they didn't find themselves explaning their comments to GLAAD...

Shirley Manson Confirms Reunion with Garbage, Says New Album is On the Way

American Top40 just announced via twitter that Shirley Manson, lead singer of the band Garbage, has confirmed the band's plans to reunite and release a new album.

This will be the band's first album since 2005's Bleed Like Me. In 2008, Manson announced her retirement from the music industry, with plans to pursue acting. Singing at her friend's son's funeral has inspired her to come back to making music.

There is no word yet on when new music will be released. Manson has stated that she and the rest of the band has recorded many songs and they still need to narrow the list down.

Are you excited about Garbage reuniting? Or do you think their music is utter garbage that should be left in the retirement home?

Mariah Carey Finally Confirms Pregnancy Rumors

People Magazine has just posted via Twitter that Mariah Carey and husband Nick Cannon have finally confirmed that they are expecting their first child.
Carey has been amidst pregnancy rumors for over a year, especially in recent months as she has gained a significant amount of weight and had been spotted wearing maternity clothes. However, her and her husband, Nick Cannon, have tried to fight off the rumors feverishly, claiming that Carey was superstitious of confirming the pregnancy early on.

The couple has still remained vague about their unborn child. News of the baby's sex, due date, or possible names have not yet been revealed.

Congratulations Mariah and Nick! Hopefully your spawn will be a mini-Mariah and much more successful than Nick. :-p

Billie Joe Armstrong to Perform in 8-Show Run of "American Idiot" Musical

Billie Joe Armstrong, front man of the band Green Day, recently took to his Twitter to announce that he would be performing the role of St. Jimmy for "American Idiot" on Broadway. He will perform 8 consecutive performances beginning tomorrow, September 28th.

Armstrong was asked to play the role after the original cast member was forced to leave to tend to a family emergency.

Armstrong is sure to bring in many more viewers for "American Idiot". The musical has already been widely successful, and who could play the character St. Jimmy better than his creator? Plus, Armstrong has that whole celebrity thing going for him...

Are you excited about Billie Joe Armstrong appearing in "American Idiot"? Will you see him during his 8-show run?

UPDATE-Lindsay Lohan Admits to Failing Drug Tests, Substance Abuse Via Twitter

The Lindsay Lohan case just took an unexpected twist.

Instead of thinking up a ridiculous excuse about how her energy drink contains elements of cocaine or something, Lohan actually admitted that she did indeed use drugs.

Lohan took to her twitter to tweet the follow:

Regrettably, I did in fact fail my most recent drug test and if I am asked, I am prepared to appear before judge Fox next week as a result. Substance abuse is a disease, which unfortunately doesn't go away over night. I am working hard to overcome it and am taking positive steps forward every day. I am testing every single day and doing what I must do to prevent any mishaps in the future.This was certainly a setback for me but I am taking responsibility for my actions and I'm prepared to face the consequences I am so thankful for the support of my fans, loved ones and immediate family, who understand that i am trying hard, but also that I am a work in progress, just as anyone else. I am keeping my faith, and I am hopeful....Thank you all!!!

I am surprised by Lohan's words, but at the same time, skeptical. I think she may have only released this statement as a way to get on Judge Fox's good side and avoid further jail time. Also, Lohan may realize that this could put a set back on her whole "come back" thing, and she may be trying to salvage it by releasing this statement.

What do you think about Lohan's admittance to failing her drug test and substance abuse?

Snoop Dogg to Judge American Idol?

Perezhilton.com is reporting that Snoop Dogg has recently tweeted an image of the American Idol logo. This tweet poses an array of questions such as:

1. Is Snoop Dogg campaigning for a spot at the judges table?
2. Has Snoop Dogg already been offered a spot as judge?
3. Is Snoop Dogg already a confirmed judge for the next season of American Idol?

Snoop is one of the crazier choices I've heard so far, but strangely, I think he is one of the best. The dude is no stranger to the music scene and he is also very talented. Snoop is known for saying crazy things and he is highly controversial. I don't think Snoop is the type of dude to refrain from speaking his mind, for better or for worst. I think adding Snoop to the judges table could be very entertaining and beneficial for American Idol.

Why do you think Snoop Dogg tweeted a picture of the American Idol logo? Do you think he may be one of the new judges this season? Would you like to see Snoop judge American Idol?

Hayley Williams and B.O.B-The best Duo that's Never Met.

Fun fact of the day:

While Hayley Williams and B.O.B. have one of the hottest songs of the year for their duet, "Airplanes", the duo has never actually met in person!

Perezhilton.com has stated that the duo recorded both the song and music video separately and while they have communicated via twitter, both are still waiting to meet in person.

Williams has joked that the song will be performed live via Skype. Hopefully the couple will be able to actually meet in person and perform it together, though!

Check out the video for "Airplanes" below. Now that you know the couple recorded their parts separately, does it change how you feel about the video?

It kind of makes sense to me to see it now. I mean Hayley Williams and B.O.B. pretty much never appear in the same shot together except for a few of the photographs, which would be very easy to photoshop together. Overall they still did an excellent job shooting the video considering the duo never met, though.

The Stupidest Way to Die...

is by electrocuting yourself by twittering while taking a shower.

Stupid, but apparently it happens. The Vibe, Socialvibe.com's official blog, is reporting that a 17 year old girl from Romania recently died after plugging in a phone charger with a wet hand so that she could log on to her twitter account and "tweet" while taking a bath.

This would have to be one of the stupidest things I've ever heard of in all my life.

Twitter to be made into a TV show?

Yes, sadly it's true. The social networking site and celeb-crazed site Twitter will be getting it's own television series. It is still unknown as to which TV station will air it or when it will be aired, but the show is said to cover the lives of tweeters. I think this show is doomed. Seriously, who cares about the lives of tweeters? According to TMZ.com, as of the time this blog is being posted, 92% of TMZ's readers feel that this show will be a lame epic failure and only 22% of the readers even have a twitter account. *Sigh*. I think it's best for social networking sites to just stick to the web.
