Rebecca Black on Good Morning America

Rebecca Black on Good Morning America



So, I've already confessed that I actually kind of like Rebecca Black, but I was so excited (I'm forcing myself not to make a joke here) to find out that she was making an appearance on Good Morning America today! More than anything, I wanted to see if she could sing live. I already felt a bit bad for her considering all of the negative attention this entire ordeal has brought on, but hearing her interview really put things into perspective. She's in eighth grade and strangers on the internet are encouraging her to commit suicide, to get an eating disorder and to cut herself?! What is wrong with people!?

Again, I admit the song is silly, but I hope people take the time to watch her interview and realize she's just a normal girl in middle school. And based on the few lines of the National Anthem that she sings, she's not a terrible singer either:

What do you guys think? Does she deserve all the hate?
