Billboard.com, the online version of Billboard magazine, posted an article on April 16 (Korean time) that Psy’s ‘Gentleman’ is gaining a huge popularity on Youtube.
It wrote: the official music video for his newest release, “Gentleman,” soared past 70 million YouTube views today (April 15), in only its third day of availability. With 18.9 million views worldwide on the day of its release, PSY’s “Gentleman” set the mark for the most views for a video in its first day on the site. Since the title premiered at 5 a.m. PDT, the 18.9 million views were earned in less than 24 hour … To provide some context around this achievement, PSY’s sum is more than 8.3 million views more than … Justin Bieber and Nicki Minaj’s “Beauty and the Beat” video (10.6 million views on October 13, 2012). For YouTube as a whole, the now infamous KONY 2012 video currently holds the record for the most views in a single day for any video, with over 30 million views in a 24 hour period.”
It added, “the 3:54 long track is PSY’s official follow-up to “Gangnam Style,” the first video clip ever to reach 1 billion views. It now stands at 1.5 billion worldwide views. “Gentleman” has already reached the top of the iTunes’ charts in several countries and is poised to make a splash on the Billboard charts when they are released later this week.”
