Horrible Alabama Sorority Recruiting Video

19 Aug

This video was created by the Alabama Panhellenic as a recruitment tool. Apparently the people who created this bizarre mix of rapping and Rebecca Black thought it would convince more girls to sign up for Rush Week. Do you think it works? I half wonder if this was done poorly intentionally as a way to attract more attention. People must now think, “If I make a video so bad that it goes viral that will attract as much, if not more attention, then a really great video.”

Could that be a new model for publicity? Of course, I doubt the people making this video ever believed it would go this big. In the meantime, this is cringe-worthy.

Singer Covers Rebecca Black’s Friday in Chinese

12 May

YouTube user dawen decided that 1 billion people needed to hear Rebecca Black’s monstrosity in their native language: Chinese. So, he recorded his version of it. It sounds just as ridiculous as the original and I don’t even speak Chinese.

Oh, PS, Glee also covered “Friday” in their most recent episode.

Rebecca Black must be laughing all the way to the bank. 136 million views and counting for the original song on YouTube.

Sadie B and Kol Ish Drop Amazing Parodies of Rebecca Black and Lonely Island

8 Apr

So, the last day has given much fruit. Two really funny parodies of “Friday” by Rebecca Black and “I Just Sex” by Lonely Island have emerged. Leave it to the deeply religious for parodies.

1) Just Had Chametz— Kol Ish

2) Sunday— Sadie B (whoever invented Auto Tune— the world is poorer for your work)

Greatest Version of Rebecca Black’s “Friday”

2 Apr

Stephen Colbert, The Roots, Taylor Hicks, Jimmy Fallon, etc. bring down the house with their version of Rebecca Black’s song. Now, let’s move on. This one is worth it though.

Possibly the Two Worst Songs Ever

15 Mar

In human history. Ever made. Without a doubt. Take a listen if you don’t believe me.

1) Rebecca Black (“Friday”): Poor Rebecca. She probably hoped that one day a song of hers would go viral. Just probably not for these reasons. Her voice is just so bizarre it makes listening painful. Then, she gets autotuned out the wazoo. She pronounces Friday like she’s just learning English. Then, there’s the music video. Rolling Stone says it might be a good thing.

2) Jenna Rose  (“My Jeans”): This song makes me want to listen to Black’s on repeat (!). Oh my god. Talk about Autotuning something to death. She sings about jeans, Miley Cyrus and hanging out with her friends (OMG!). Wow, it’s horrible. And then someone decides that a rap would be a good idea. Wrong. Just so wrong.
