Rebecca Black's "Friday" re-worked for use in a Black Friday commercial

by Nicole Villeneuve

Does Rebecca Black not know the horror to which she contributes? Aside from just releasing her own music, of course? (Too easy? Yeah. But TRUE.)

The singer’s massive viral hit “Friday” has been appropriated for use in a Black Friday shopping ad. The terrible, deadly day takes place on Friday, the day after U.S. Thanksgiving, as it does every year, and this year we’ll have a new scapegoat when people get trampled outside a Walmart while storming in to get cheap video games before dawn on Friday, Friday, Friday.

Watch the ad above.
