Insider: With all the negative attention after Friday, did you ever think about abandoning entertainment?
Rebecca: No. It's such a passion of mine, I would never give it up. The first moment it all went down [was shocking] but I never had that moment where I felt I shouldn't be doing it. Singing has to be part of my life in one way or another.

Insider: What did you learn from the experience?
Rebecca: I learned to not let mean spirited people get to you. You have to keep doing and it doesn't matter what people say – if you really love something, keep going and don't let anyone stop you.

Insider: You've released three singles so far, is an album in the works?
Rebecca: We are working on an album, which is very exciting – I'll be back in the studio this summer with hopes of it being out in the fall.

Insider: What can fans expect from that?
Rebecca: I've got some fun, dancey upbeat songs, but also some soft ballads.
