Otroligt

Many of us keep track of what tops the box-office and iTunes charts, but can anybody even guess what’s the most-viewed YouTube video of all time? No, it doesn’t involve a baby or a kid doing something hilarious. The answer is “Bad Romance,” (visst är det en toppenlåt)  the music video starring Lady Gaga shimmying in what looks like an underground brothel. As of press time it had been viewed 244,529,375 times. The runner-up, and catching up fast, is the music video for Justin Bieber’s song “Baby,” with 243,479,950 views. No. 3 features a real baby (“Charlie Bit My Finger—Again”), though there’s another video, Miley Cyrus’s “Party in the U.S.A.,” at No. 5, with 138 million views. Of course, music videos make up only a fraction of YouTube’s audience as the second-largest search engine after Google, but the Web site has singlehandedly revived the genre—with a little help from a woman who wears soda cans in her hair.
