Ryan Seacrest, Rebecca Black, Twitter and Record Deals – Oh My!

We stayed away from Rebecca Black as long as we could, but with Ryan Seacrest getting in the mix…we had to join in all the fun.

The 13 year old has reached fame faster than “The Man with the Golden Radio Voice”. Now that she is an established artist (insert tongue in cheek), she visited Mr. Ryan Seacrest on his show at KIIS FM studios.

After a (sub) standard interview Ryan helped her set up a twitter account. The former twitter page “@_RebeccaBlack” which she gained 47,050 followers is not an actual twitter account but a standard fan page that follows her music career (insert finger down throat).

With the help of ‘The Great Seacrest’ She set up an official account for her personal tweets @MsRebeccaBlack, which gained 5,231 followers and counting.

Rumor has it that Ryan also introduced her to her new manager Debra Baum of DB Entertainment and helped her sign the deal. This is somewhat false. Ryan was 2 degrees removed as reported by E-online,

“It was actually Tony Novia who made many recommendations to Rebecca and her parents about me as a manager,” Baum tells E! News. “It was not Ryan. Tony is an executive who works for Ryan’s company.”

Either way Rebecca Black will be entering the studio to record a full length album. Hate her song or love it, she has over 41 million views and she has moved up to the top 25 spot in Itunes.
I dare you “Not” to press play on the video below.
