Rebecca Black Pregnant?

Rebecca Black, proud mother to be?

13 year old , best known for her song which became a viral hit online, is pregnant.

One of Rebecca’s closest friends revealed the news on their wall. The post was soon deleted but the revelation had already spread to websites such as CNN, Allvoices and Twitter. Apparently Rebecca did not want the news made public yet, she even disabled comments on the Friday video which has 140 million views on Youtube.

Rebecca’s boyfriend Nat Wolff is assumed to be the father. They have been seen together at functions and award ceremonies since meeting last year.

Black has already been criticized by some for allowing herself to become pregnant, many are concerned that she is setting a bad example for teens. Rebecca has previously acknowledged that she is a role model for young people. The community at babycenter.com was particularly critical with many calling for Rebecca to seriously consider an abortion. Black has previously spoken about her pro-live values.

Other websites such as skiphopz.com and a new Facebook group dedicated to Rebecca’s pregnancy have been more supportive. Rebecca Black herself has not made a statement about her pregnancy at this time.

…I guess she chose the backseat after all.

Justin Bieber sings Rebecca Black's "Friday" Britney Spears' "Baby One More Time" [+Video]

Remember when Rebecca Black asked Justin Bieber to sing a duet with her a few weeks ago? Well, her dream may have come true when the Canadian pop star sang a few bars of her absurdly catchy single “Friday” at a recent concert.

Apparently, the 13-year-old singer has created a shrine to the Biebs in her room.

At the concert, Bieber asked the fans if they wanted to hear his mega-hit “Baby”

Then he started singing Britney Spears‘ “Baby One More Time” before doing it into his own songs. Watch the video below.

On Wednesday, the 17-year-old, currently on tour in Europe, continued to josh his fandom via Twitter:

“so here is the big news they were waiting for me to announce to u once off stage….” – He tweeted.

“OFFICIALLY getting #NEVERSAYNEVER3D to Blu-ray & DVD May13th. Preorder NOW – http://j.mp/getNSN and I’m signing some for my fans!” #MUCHLOVE” he then added.

Rebecca Black’s “Friday” Pulled From YouTube?

Rebecca Black’s "Friday" Pulled From YouTube?

Rebecca Black’s “Friday” the much-maligned but still catchy pop music video that’s taken the web by storm, has passed into nothingness. The video was removed from YouTube by the original publisher (Black’s record label, Ark Music Factory) as of 4 p.m. Pacific Daylight Time.

Love it or hate it — and chances are, you hate it — Rebecca Black’s music video “Friday” had racked up an impressive 64 million YouTube views since its inauspicious debut last month. However, when it comes to sentiment, “Friday” was killing it, and by “it” we mean “any feelings of charity or kindness you may feel toward Ark and its teenie bopping popsters.” of course.

“Friday” had racked up around 1.189 million dislikes; Justin Bieber’s “Baby” its nearest competitor for the dubious honor of “most hated video” has only 1.162 million dislikes on YouTube.

But Bieber’s clip had more than 501 million views. When you do the math, that means Rebecca Black’s video was actively disliked by almost 1.88% of viewers who saw the video. “Baby” is disliked by a mere .23%.

We’ve written about Black’s first foray into Internet fame a few times, and not everything we’ve had to say has been nice. After all, the teen singer was given only the briefest radio play, and she reportedly didn’t even make that much money from the video, especially when one considers the amount of exposure and emotional pain that comes along with such an ordeal.

We’ll keep an eye on the video’s URL the clip may pop up again shortly. In the meantime, we’re reaching out to Ark for a statement on why the video was pulled in the first place.

The chorus: “It’s prom night, who I’m gonna dance with/ It’s prom night, is he looking at me/ It’s prom night that boy’s kinda cute…. dancin’ dancin’ dancin’ ”
