Don't pretend you don't know who Rebecca Black is.
Can you believe it's been five years since "Friday" crept into your brain, never—ever—to leave? The so-bad-it's-good song made its way inextricably into pop culture history (and millennial trivia questions), defining the zeitgeist so much that the Glee cast and Stephen Colbert both covered the infernally catchy ditty.
Instead of reacting to the attention by folding up into a playing-card-sized shadow of her former self, Black had the humor and wherewithal to wink at her internet fame. Remember "Saturday"? And her Snapchat handle? "itsfridaybitch." A round of applause, please.
Our favorite weekend-harbinger made something special for ELLE.com: a mash-up of some of the biggest pop songs going around. See if you can figure out which tunes the viral vocalist has thrown into the mix—and stick around for a little throwback surprise...
Stay tuned for another update, coming soon from the YouTube star here at ELLE.com. In the meantime, catch up with Rebecca here.

I wanna feel alive
I wanna take a walk in the wild
I wanna feel hearts collide
I wanna feel alive
Ohhh, ohhh, ohhh
Come bloody, I got room for two
Theres only one thing thats left to do
Hold steady I've had my eye on you
I'm coming back at you like deja vu
I wanna take a walk in the wild
I wanna feel hearts collide
I wanna feel alive
I wanna take a walk in the wild
I wanna feel hearts collide
I wanna feel alive
I'll be waiting for you
Whenever you're ready
I'll be waiting for you

MEET YOUR MUSIC OBSESSION, HEATHER BRAVERMAN!
BY TAYLOR MARCH 8, 2016 0 COMMENTS
We’re so excited to introduce you all to your NEW girl crush, singer Heather Braverman! We recently got the opportunity to chat exclusively with Heather all about her new music and it was seriously everything. Not only is this babe so talented, she’s also awesome. We guarantee you’re about to become obsessed with Heather’s new song!
Popmania: Tell us about your new single, “Take It Off.”
HB: I’m really pumped to be releasing music. I think it’s super easy for everyone to get wrapped up in the world and not take a second to relax, let go, and appreciate where they are. This song is about letting those moments happen because it feels so good to take off your worries for a minute.
Popmania: If you could record a “Take It Off” remix with any artist, who would it be and why?
HB: Can Nick Jonas please sing a verse? I would seriously not be opposed to that!! I’m really into his music. Jo Bros forever. I would either do a remix with him or an artist named Jon Bellion. He breaks rules in his songs and it’s epic.
Popmania: Are there any surprises on the EP that fans can look forward to?
HB: Honestly I think the whole EP is a surprise. It was so entertaining for me to make because I never knew where the music was going to take me. It was all an exploration for me and I think that comes across. Also me rapping will most likely make everyone surprised. Love that.
Can’t get enough of Heather’s new song?! Check it out on Spotify and iTunes! Don’t forget to cyber stalk your newest girl crush on Twitter and Instagram.
Entertainment Weekly premieres Bates Motel Season 4 Promo
I recently did the music for the Bates Motel Season 4 season premiere promo. I co-wrote the song with the talented singer/songwriter Rivvrs. Check it out!
Bates Motel
Posted February 11 2016 — 12:48 PM EST
For three seasons, Bates Motel fans have watched Norman Bates’ slow descent into psychosis. But when the A&E drama returns March 7, the character will chart some disturbing new depths, at least when it comes to his tendency to inhabit the character of “Mother.” For the first time, he’s dressing like his mother with his mother, their matching robes a sign that the lines between real life and Norman’s fractured psyche are blurring. EW has an exclusive first look at the moment.
“That image of them looking at their reflections, I think what she sees is that her dreams have indeed become a nightmare,” says actress Vera Farmiga, adding that Norma’s fear of her son is going to spur her into action this season and cause her to realize that, “Maybe the truth is that Norman is an actual impediment to her happiness.
“The only reason she is not achieving her goals is looking back at her,” Farmiga says of the photo. “I think that she realizes there are only a couple mistakes that one can make along the road to truth: Not starting, and not going all the way. I think she’s going to go all the way.”
Of course, Norman is seeing something entirely different, which is another theme of the season. “This season you’re really going to see that they totally are in disagreement in terms of what the truth of the matter is,” Farmiga says. ”I think Norman perceives it in a very different way. What’s so fascinating to watch about them is this enormous push and pull of a love affair that they have as mother and son.”
And for Norma, she has to learn that “the truth may hurt for a little while whereas lies hurt her forever,” Farmiga says. “Above all this season I think what’s going to be different about her is that she’s going to be doing what she knows to be right instead of what she’s convinced herself to be right.” After all, there’s a “price that we all pay for keeping secrets,” she says.
For the first time, fans could see Norma putting herself before her son. “For Norma, this year is really about loving herself enough to do everything it takes for her to achieve integrity,” Farmiga says. “There’s going to be a lot of emotion, a lot of libido, a lot of strife. She’s whipping herself into a new gear this year and it’s going to be very exciting to watch. I’m so delighted to present this season to the fans. I think it’s going to be a big one.”
Lyrics:
I got nothing, got nothing to lose
Time is running out and I'm rolling through
And I'm coming, I'm coming for you
With a hot head and a bad attitude
I wanna take a walk in the wild
I wanna feel hearts collide
I wanna feel alive
I wanna take a walk in the wild
I wanna feel hearts collide
I wanna feel alive
Ohhh, ohhh, ohhh
Come bloody, I got room for two
Theres only one thing thats left to do
Hold steady I've had my eye on you
I'm coming back at you like deja vu
I wanna take a walk in the wild
I wanna feel hearts collide
I wanna feel alive
I wanna take a walk in the wild
I wanna feel hearts collide
I wanna feel alive
I'll be waiting for you
Whenever you're ready
I'll be waiting for you
Whenever you're ready
