Part of being in the public eye is attracting criticism and it is how you deal with it. I think you are overreacting with the death threats and everyone hating her. Life ruined? Jeez. She is young and has the rest of her life ahead of her. Most of that post is bull ****!

If your whole reputation as a music is based upon having the most criticized song on all time that is not good publicity. Any musician doesn't want to be known for making crappy music. This is different than say a gangsta rapper being caught for gun possession since that brings more credibility to his hardcore lyrics.
Also her life will be a bit harder for at least the next 6 months. She can't get into music because people aren't going to take her seriously after Friday.
Finally we are not overreacting to everyone hating on her. No one likes this song and even Rebecca herself admits to receiving death threats. Even the news reporters that cover the god damn song are taking subtle shots at it while they are covering the story. I have never heard anyone on the internet, television, or on the street say with a straight face that Rebecca Black is a decent artist.
