Rihanna: the most viewed artist on Youtube

Delighted Rihanna retweets fansite produced by her very own, Rihanna Navy, which quoted in saying “Rihanna has passed 4 billion views on Youtube, she’s the most viewed artist.” The tweet also included a cheeky little moving-image taken from Tumblr displaying Rih-Rih brushing her shoulders at the MTV Video Music Awards 2012.

Superstar sensation, Rihanna has managed to beat the likes of Justin Bieber, Psy (Mr Gagnam Style) and Lady Gaga to claim the title of: The First Artist to Reach 4 Billion Combined Views. Her official VEVO page holds 77 of the R&B princess’s best videos – with 8.7 million subscribers.

Last reported, Psy is not too far behind in third place with 3.1 billion views, followed by Eminem with 2.4 billion, Lady Gaga with 2.25 billion and Shakira with 2 billion.

Here are some of Rihanna’s Most Viewed Videos:

• Diamonds – with 330,878,499 views


• What’s My Name – with 320,596,375 views


• Only Girl (in the World) – with 289,611,655 views


• We Found Love – with 285, 317,041 views


• Man Down – with 229,980,410
  
  

It is believed that the conversation surrounding the racy content of her videos is what generates more and more Youtube views. We at Ping! do believe that Rihanna will continue to create buzz within the music industry (alongside Miley Cyrus – see article on Miley Cyrus at the VMA’s). But how long can Rihanna remain at the top spot as ‘Most viewed artist on Youtube’?
