3. Rebecca Black
Rebecca Black is an apt example for being infamous more than being famous with her so called ‘talent’ of singing. She put up her kiddish song called ‘Friday,’ thinking she will be a huge star like Internet sensation, Justin Beiber. But she became a worldwide joke and the video was tagged by many as the ‘worst video ever made.’ It garnered 3.1 million dislikes on YouTube.

4. Susan Boyle on Britain’s got Talent
Miss Boyle’s story and singing talent on the famous show, Britain’s got Talent, touched a cord with anyone who watched her perform. What made audiences connect with her was her simple and in fact poor appearance, that of a 51 year old neglected poor lady who only had talent backing her. Needless to say, she is now quite rich and has earned billions of YouTube hits through her music videos.
