The YouTube video I chose to write about is the number 2 video on the most watched list. It is the Justin Bieber music video for baby. I believe that there are so many views for this video because 1) its Justin Bieber, one of the biggest female teen heartthrobs in music currently and 2) because it was when his music first came out and every preteen girl around watched the video dozens of times each. If you take all of those girls and add together how many times they each saw it, it would make sense why it was the number 1 video for so long until the Gangnam Style song topped it.
