Rebecca Black's 15 minutes of fame are almost over, but we still got a kick out of this latest parody video, in which President Barack Obama sing-speaks lyrics from Black's infamously viral single 'Friday.'

Are you sick of Rebecca Black yet? If the answer to that question is "yes," prepare yourself, because the 13-year-old Internet celebrity isn't going anywhere just yet.

In a new interview with The Sun, Black revealed she is not only working on a follow-up single to 'Friday,' she's also working on an album -- yes, an album.

The new single is called "LOL" (but of course), a "text-message themed anthem" that the Sun says is "every bit as ... catchy" as 'Friday.'

"You think you are bringing me down and making me not want to do this any more. But you're making me stronger and want to do it even more," said Black.

Rebecca Black is apparently turning what some are calling the "worst song ever" into huge profits.

Forbes writer Chris Barth recently took a look at the digital sales and video streams for her now infamous (but admittedly catchy) song 'Friday.' Thus far, the video has over 30 million streams on YouTube, which has apparently translated into an estimated $20,000 -- a big profit, considering Black's mother paid Ark Music Factory a little over $2,000 for two songs and the 'Friday' video.

New and old media alike have been abuzz about a music video from an unknown pop singer named Rebecca Black that's so bad it's...still pretty bad. The song is called "Friday" and in it, Black waxes poetic about anticipation for the weekend and driving around with her girlfriends in the most literal way possible. To wit:
Kickin' in the front seat/Sittin' in the backseat/Gotta make my mind up/Which seat can I take?
