Singer Adele Breaks Youtube’s 1 Billion Highest View Record, Dethrone PSY’s Gangnam Style

“Seems like everyone is saying Hi to Adele’s Hello as the
hit song has broken yet another record, this time on
YouTube.
The streaming service announced that the video for the
song garnered one billion views in 87 days breaking the
record for Psy’s Gangnam style which needed 158 days,
that’s a rate of about 11 million a day. With the new feat,
Adele becomes the first artist to register one billion
YouTube views within three months.
‘If anyone deserves it, it’s Adele and that song,’ said
Susanne Daniels, the head of original programming at
YouTube.
The news comes just weeks after Adele’s third album, 25,
smashed global records with its chart success – beating
the Fifa 16 computer game to become the UK’s biggest-
selling home entertainment title of 2015.”
