Rebecca Black Disproves America’s Got Talent’s Thesis

Teen nightmare Rebecca Black went on two-bit variety show America's Got Talent last night and performed a little medley for us. She sang part of her new song, and part of "Friday," the song that made her famous.

And it was pretty bad? Yeah, it was pretty bad. Especially bad because there was nothing shocking or exciting or silly about how bad it was. It was just an awkward teenage girl warbling on a stage for a few minutes while some depressed backup dancers worked it out behind her. So I declare the whole thing dead. No more Rebecca Black! We have exorcised that demon and there are new things to do and explore. Like, uh, Chris Crocker. Y'know, the person who got famous on YouTube for embarrassing himself.

We're done with the girl who embarrassed herself on the internet four months ago. Bring on the guy who did it four years ago!
