This feels like it's been the longest "Friday" ever. Marginally-talented YouTube sensation Rebecca Black performed her hit song on "America's Got Talent" Wednesday night -- five months after it first blew up.
The 14-year-old, who recently revealed she had to drop out of school due to teasing over her success, began her performance with the opening line from her new single "My Moment, which is about her life post-"Friday."

Then she launched into the song that earned her 160 million views online.

But unlike the recorded version, Black didn't have the benefit of autotune as she warbled the lyrics and moved awkwardly onstage with her backup dancers.

When she had finished the brief -- but long enough -- set, the camera cut to "AGT" judges Piers Morgan, Sharon Osbourne and Howie Mandel, who looked at a loss for words.

VIRAL VIDEO STARS: WHERE ARE THEY NOW?

"I think I have talent on some level," Black has said. "I don't think I'm the worst singer, but I don't think I'm the best singer.

Still, Black does have her fans -- and lots of them.

"My Moment" already has 22 million hits on YouTube and last week she took home the Teen Choice Award for Best Web Star.
