Rebecca Black’s Friday 10 years on: ‘I’ve never regretted it’

Rebecca Black’s Friday is 10 years old this month. Feel old yet?

The singer was just 13 when her song shot to infamy, getting a huge backlash online and causing trolls to attack her for years.

But it didn’t stop her doing what she really wanted – and she’s got new music on the 10th anniversary of Friday’s release.

Rebecca tells Radio 1 Newsbeat how the comments affected her at the time, coming out publicly as queer and her new song Girlfriend.
