For Madison Beer, It’s Been A Long Road To The Brink Of A Breakthrough

I remember when I first heard about Madison Beer. It was 2012, and I was deep in the pop blogging mines, scrolling Google Reader under the eye of a life-size Justin Bieber cutout. The Western world had just been rocked by the smash K-pop hit "Gangnam Style." Blue Ivy was still a baby. Taylor Swift had no defined eras. And celebrities were still on Twitter, which was still Twitter. (Ah, better days.)
