"Call Me Maybe" Is The Most Viewed Video Of 2012

Congrats to Carly Rae Jepsen! “Call Me Maybe” was the song you couldn’t get away from this year, and it was also the most viewed music video of 2012! With support from her pal Justin Bieber, the Canadian newcomer's mega-hit blasted onto the music scene in an enormous way: “Call Me Maybe” spent nine weeks at number one on the Billboard Hot 100, and its official music video delivered over 360 million views across VEVO.

“Call Me Maybe” may have been the most popular video of 2012, but several artists had multiple videos on our Top 10 list of most-viewed videos of the year. One Direction and Jennifer Lopez each had two videos while Pitbull had two of his own videos – and guested on two more (both with JLo).
