Rebecca Black: Bullying Victim

Rebecca Black says she was being bullied so badly by other kids that she had to leave school.

Think of how badly the song Friday and its accompanying video were mocked on the Internet and late-night TV. Now imagine actually being Rebecca Black walking down the hall of her junior high and having that mockery happen in person, at the hands of dozens of mean teenagers.

It's a nightmare the 14-year-old could no longer bear.

Rebecca Black says that the bullying got so bad that she could no longer focus on school, so her mother pulled her out and she is now being home-schooled.

"When I walk by they'll start singing Friday in a really nasally voice," Black told ABC News. "Or, you know, they'll be like, 'Oh hey, Rebecca, guess what day it is?'"

Wait, that's it? That's the bullying? If little comments like that affected her so badly, let's hope the kid never Googles herself.

"Everyone has haters, I could donate all of my organs to children in need and I would still have haters," Black told Access Hollywood.

"It's just something I think that comes with all the attention, so I just have to deal with it."

Rebecca Black's mother says she is now home-schooling the singer, who recently made an appearance in Katy Perry's video for Last Friday Night (TGIF), and that the move will help her focus on her singing career.

This girl needs to be put back in school or her mother needs to focus on her English lessons. Because in the song "friday" she said, "We so excited" when in fact the correct english term would be "We ARE so excited" OR her mother can inform her that she is in fact not black and has no intelligent reason to speak like that.

I got bullied out of school too, except that my bullying involved getting physically assaulted multiple times by guys twice my size, death threats, and vandalism to my personal property when the school authorities refused to do much of anything about it aside from occasionally handing out detention to the perpetrators. In other words, get over yourself, you spoiled self-important little twerp. I hope this is the WORST thing you ever have to deal with, unlike the rest of us.

Do you blame the kids at her school? It is the worst video I have ever seen. Even home grown videos can turn out better than that and besides, anyone can lip sync!
