Lady Gaga passes a billion views on YouTube

By | Published on Wednesday 27 October 2010

So, she’s done it people. Lady Gaga has now had over a billion views on YouTube, the first artist to pass such a landmark. Though those stats do include views on the YouTube-powered US-based music video service Vevo, half owned by Gaga’s record company Universal, but don’t let that spoil the “Gaga passed a billion views on YouTube” party, will you? The Gaga thanked her “little monsters” on Twitter after she passed the one billion point earlier this week.

Justin Bieber is lagging embarrassingly behind in this race with only 965 million views on the video sharing website. Oh Justin, people clearly just don’t like you and your tedious warbling. Although behind Gaga overall, the Biebster is currently getting well over 3 million video views a day on YouTube so should pass the billion mark himself in about a month and could pass the Gaga in total numbers of views by the end of the year.
