Miley Cyrus Is Not a Fan of 'Friday'

By Michael Lopez

In some ways, you’ve got to feel a little sorry for YouTube phenom Rebecca Black. Since her critically-panned "Friday" song hit the web a few weeks back, the 13 year-old has been relentlessly scrutinized by the media. And now it looks like celebrities are layering on the haterade too, particularly Disney Channel star Miley Cyrus.

"It should be harder to be an artist," Cyrus told Australia's Daily Telegraph . "You shouldn't just be able to put a song on YouTube and go on tour."

We wouldn’t be so quick to judge. Mediums like YouTube have helped legitimate artists like Justin Bieber and Lady Gaga seriously boost their fan base. But then again, neither of them had a song quite as divisive as “Friday.” Love or hate Rebecca’s end-of-the-week anthem, it’s definitely attracted a lot of views.

Miley made a point of dismissing all social media in her latest interview, saying that internet fame isn’t always a good thing.

"I do not tweet, I do not social network, I try to stay out of it. I complain enough about people knowing too much about my private life, so to go out there and exploit myself would be silly and hypocritical."

As for Rebecca, she doesn’t seem to be discouraged in the slightest. Entertainment Weekly is reporting that she’s already back in the studio recording her “Friday” followup.
