Adele breaks youtube record



Adele has broken another record — her video for “Hello” is the quickest to reach one billion views on YouTube.

“Hello,” a ballad that ended a four-year album hiatus for the British singer, entered the exclusive one billion-view club late Monday just 88 days after its release.

It easily broke the speed record set by South Korean pop singer Psy’s “Gangnam Style,” whose viral equestrian-themed dance video hit one billion views in 2012 after 160 days.

But “Hello” still has far to go to catch up to “Gangnam Style” in total views.

“Gangnam Style” on Tuesday reached 2.5 billion views, more than one billion above its nearest competitor, Taylor Swift’s “Blank Space.”

“Hello” benefited in views as it came around a month before the release of “25,” the full album.
