Rebecca Black talks about 'Friday' on Friday

The day has finally come (it's Friday, "Friday") for the Ministry to acknowledge the viral virility of Rebecca Black's song and music video of the same name.

After a week in hiding, the Auto-Tuned songstress -- whose producers insist she sang in key -- talked with "Good Morning America" on, you guessed it, Friday, about the "Why is this playing over and over in my head?" quality of her song.

"I think that's an accomplishment. Even a person who doesn't like it, it's going to be stuck in their head. That's the point of it. It's a catchy song," said Rebecca, 13.

The Orange County eighth-grader, who seems bred from Ke$ha and Kim Kardashian's musical mash-ups and looks slightly like Lea Michele, has been omnipresent on social media all week with reactions to her song, which goes a little something like this: 

7 a.m. She wakes up. She needs her bowl and cereal. Then needs to get down to the bus stop. Then needs to make the really difficult decision of where to sit in the car.

"Kickin in the front seat, sittin' in the back seat, which seat can I take?"

Ex-managers fear time is 'Tik Tok'-ing on Kesha's money

Kesha sued Ke$ha Kesha — a.k.a. Ke$ha, but that's just stupid — is being sued by her former managers, and those managers want the New York courts to hurrrrrryyyy uuuuuuup allllreeeaaaady. They apparently want a shot at $14 million they say they're owed before Kesha doesn't have it anymore.

DAS Communications sued the singer in New York in May for $14 million the company claimed it was owed from her successful 2010 album. Kesha responded with a countersuit in California, saying she didn't owe anyone anything, because she'd fired DAS in 2008.

But DAS is still pursuing its claim and apparently is afraid the "Tik Tok" party will in fact stop, saying in court papers that the singer "is a very young and inexperienced artist whose 'star' may not continue to rise." So, um, could the court please speed up its decision before her 15 minutes are up?

"Their legal maneuver was to try and delay everything, and we defeated everyone of those motions," a DAS spokesman told E! Online about the latest court action.

"Ain't got a care in world but got plenty of beer," said Kesha. "Ain't got no money in my pocket, but I'm already here."

OK, she said that in her big hit "Tik Tok," not in court — but for many reasons, those words should be enough to make anyone worry the big bucks might not last.
