Rebecca Black is an artist who defines her own path. An undisputed icon of underground music, fashion, and queer art scenes, Rebecca Black’s wide-ranging creative output is unstoppable. Amid collabs with Slayyyter, MØ, bbno$, and more, Black released her first project “Rebecca Black Was Here” in 2021 which led to performances at the GLAAD Awards and Tamron Hall. Nearly a decade since her iconic cameo in Katy Perry’s video for “Last Friday Night,” Black continues to make pop-culture appearances in videos for Blu de Tiger, Amy Allen, and more. During NYFW, Billboard wrote “Rebecca Black, King Princess and Hayley Williams are the ultimate cool girls…” and it’s proof of the new era she’s having as a young adult.

At 13, she quickly shifted from devoted musical theater kid to viral sensation: Black’s 2011 hit “Friday” was viewed by more than 150 million people worldwide and became the fastest-growing song and video that year. Now with a RIAA Gold certification, a YouTube No. 1, and a Teen Choice Award (“Choice Web Star”) to her name, the 10th anniversary of “Friday” saw the release of 2021’s internet-breaking remix featuring Dorian Electra, Big Freedia, and 3OH!3, commemorating her rebirth as a modern music icon.

Beyond the music, the singer, songwriter, and creator advocates for anti-bullying, mental health initiatives, and the LGBTQ+ community, making a difference for her audience through partnerships with the AdCouncil, GLAAD, and Best Buddies, and as an Ambassador for Planned Parenthood’s ‘Be Seen’ campaign. One year after coming out, Rebecca Black proudly received the honor of joining Variety’s Power of Pride list. And her performance of “Girlfriend” was named Billboard’s “best musical moment” at the GLAAD Media Awards.

Over the course of her trailblazing career, Rebecca Black has earned critical acclaim for her indisputable presence in pop culture. A one-woman force who’s in control of her own image, Black achieves her big-budget pop sound through a DIY lens. Working independently with fellow creatives as collaborators, Black complements her slick, futuristic hits with expressive visuals that amplify her music by portraying the deeper messages of her songwriting.
