This goes beyond their shared Bieber Fever. Do you think Rebecca could someday fill Selena’s shoes?
Rebecca Black, 13, skyrocketed to fame in the past few weeks — for better or worse — with her music video for “Friday,” capturing the world’s attention and laying claim over 1/7 of the Gregorian calendar. And while I won’t deny the song is catchy, is this Rebecca girl really anything we haven’t seen before? Allow me to draw your attention to another young lady in the music biz, Selena Gomez, whose footsteps Rebecca appears to be following in quite closely.
Prepare to have your mind blown…
They both put their backpacks on their right shoulders. Yes, I’m aware that I’m using images from Selena’s TV show and Rebecca’s music video, but you know what? Sometimes art imitates life.
They both wake up at 7 a.m. — and hate it. But seriously, who likes getting up at that hour? (If only we had Selena’s magical time-reversing powers.)
They both want to sing a duet with Justin Bieber. While Selena has appeared on stage with Justin (see photo #3), Rebecca announced her desire for a collaboration March 18 on Good Morning America.
They’ve both gone viral. Rebecca’s YouTube views may not be as impressive as Selena’s, but considering “Friday” is only a month old, she’s got plenty of time to catch up.
They’ve both been tweeted death threats. Fortunately, neither Selena nor Rebecca let their haters keep them from riding around in the backseat of a car, mouth agape, hair blowing in the breeze.

Selena Gomez is trash. I found this website by google searching Selena Gomez can’t sing. Anyone that thinks she can obviously hasn’t heard good music.

I laugh at your comment. If you think Selena can sing you are tone deaf. If you really want to her good singing listen to Demi Lovato or check out some singers on youtube.com

Haters are stupid but she can’t sing. Her karma is going to come back to her for taking someones chance at singing by signing for a record deal when she knows she herself is completely mediocre/ terrible.

I have a better reason why they are alike- they both can’t sing for thier lives!!!!! I have nothing against Rebecca because I haven’t really listened to her songs, but Selena Gomez is horrible! I hope Rebecca or anybody else for that matter even think of looking up to her as a music idol. She just isn’t good. Demi Lovato is 5000 times better. I <3 Demi!

Rebecca Black is just starting and if she’s got alot of attention with only two songs, she’ll probably be better that Selena Gomez. And as for Selena, i think in less that ten years time she’ll be old and washed out.

Go look up the word “hypocrite” in the dictionary and then go stand in front of a mirror to see one. Your post is the most hateful and vile of all of the others – telling people they deserve to die because they disagree with you. Seek psychological help and fast. Our prisons are already overcrowded and we don’t need another one of “you” in prison. You’re hateful, vile and have a “potty” mouth. You have nothing going for you.

5 reason I’ll say they’re the same person
1. Can’t Sing
2. Trying to be like Miley Cyrus
3. Can’t stand them/ not true to themself
4. Don’t deserve a career in Entertainment
5. Can’t carry a tune to save their life.
