'You are not defined by any one choice,' MsRebeccaBlack says, reflecting on 9 years of Friday
The aftermath of from 2011 was not what the then-13-year-old was necessarily looking forward to like it's the weekend. The clip has garnered more than 130 million YouTube views, but that's not the takeaway from the anniversary reflection she posted yesterday .
"Above all things, i just wish i could go back and talk to my 13 year old self who was terribly ashamed of herself and afraid of the world," she penned in a Notes app screenshot that she posted on Twitter. "To my 15 year old self who felt like she had nobody to talk to about the depression she faced. to my 17 year old self who would get to school only to get food thrown at her and her friends.
She continued, "I'm trying to remind myself more and more that every day is a new opportunity to shift your reality and lift your spirit. you are not defined by any one choice or thing. time heals and nothing is finite. it's a process that's never too late to begin. and so, here we go!" The post juxtaposed a serious mirror selfie of the now 22-year-old artist with a screenshot of herself singing in the "Friday" music video to embrace how far she's come. But the flurry of Twitter replies assured her that "Friday" was also a major deal for them growing up and an iconic music moment.
