By March 21, 2011, the "Friday" music video had been viewed more than 30 million times on YouTube.[50] Forbes estimated that as of that date, Black and ARK Music had earned $20,000 from YouTube's revenue-sharing program,[51] and Billboard estimated iTunes sales of approximately 43,000 copies, roughly equivalent to $26,700 in royalties.[52] Within a week after being released on iTunes it had jumped the iTunes sales chart to 19 on March 19, 2011.[53][54][55] "Friday" debuted on the US Hot Digital Songs chart at number 57[56] and went on to peak at number 38.[57] "Friday" debuted on the New Zealand Singles Chart at number 33 on March 21, 2011.[58] The song entered the Billboard Hot 100 at number 72 and rose to 58 the next week.[59] It has sold 87,000 copies over the two weeks.[59] The song has also received airplay in Sweden.[60] In the United States, it was played 12 times from March 16 to March 22, considered low for a Hot 100 song.[61] Despite the song's strong performance elsewhere, Georgina Kelly has claimed that her daughter has not received any money from the song's sales, saying "We haven't received a dime from anywhere."[16]
