It seems odd that a 16-year-old kid from Stratford, Ontario is the pretty much the biggest pop star in the world right now. It probably shouldn't (why can't someone from Stratford [a theatre town, after all] be famous?), but it does.
That's right, Justin Bieber, a.k.a. The Bieb, has the most watched video online video, having surpassed Lady Gaga's Bad Romance with his Baby (featuring Ludacris), after a long, drawn out battle in mid July. And here we are, mid August and he's still there.
What makes a video draw in over 306 MILLION VIEWS? Besides being, you know, really sweet (and featuring a cameo from Drake).
He is, of course, followed closely by Gaga's impressive Bad Romance video which channels Madonna, The Matrix, Michael Jackson and Matthew Barney, just to touch on the "M"s. What's not to love?

It's doubtfull that without the video their "music" could stand on its own.
