TERRIBLE TUESDAY: Trizzy66

So I doubt there are many people left on this planet who haven't heard of Rebecca Black's "Friday."  Now we all love to ragg on Miss Black for her horrible song with stupid lyrics, bad singing and a very strange video.  But let us take a minute to think about how she got to where she is today...
   Her parents spent $4,000 to Ark Music Factory to make their daughter a star.  $4,000!!!  My car only cost $800 and it's a car.  For $4,000 I could get 5 cars, or one car whose windows actually roll up and down, but that's besides the point.  So I'm just picturing little 14 year-old Rebecca singing in the shower and all around her house.  Her parents hear their daughter and her mom says to her dad, "What a talented daughter we have!!! We should share her talent with the world.  It would be selfish not to." Dad responds "You are quite right honey.  Hey maybe we should take the money that we've been sticking in the garbage disposal and treat our little cupcake to some internet stardom."  So that's how they end up at Ark Music Factory.  They hand over their money and the company whips up a song and puts together a cute little video.  No big deal, right?  So video and song are a bit uh different, the kid driving the car is about twelve but at least the song teaches us the days of the weeks.  Not like it's a big deal, not that many people are gonna see it...wrong.  BAM 167million views, over 3million dislikes.  Sorry, Becky, but ya know "no press is bad press"... 
   Anyyyways everyone already knows about "Friday."  The video has come and gone and it has left its impression on us.  Who doesn't break into "gotta get down on Friiiday" when they're getting ready for the weekend?  Or is that just me?  But I feel like people have been distracted by "Friday" and missed out on the other wonders that Ark Music Factory has put out.  Under the YouTube name trizzy66 Ark has put out lots of other videos by teens just as talented as Rebecca Black. 
  One of my favorites is "Girl Swag" by Madison Bray.  What a talented young lady, and a feminist at that.  What a tiny BAMF, check out the pink hair and leather jacket.  She's also very mature for her age, I mean she has her own Beamer.
