Guess Who’s Having The Best Year Ever On YouTube?

We're just a little over halfway through 2014, so let's take a step back and see what's actually been buzzing the loudest. YouTube recently released its list of most popular music videos and, unsurprisingly, World Cup-themed things rule.
But, Katy Perry reigns supreme — her video for "Dark Horse" tops the chart. The deliciously stylized clip has culled nearly 500 million plays. Following her is Shakira and Rihanna's sensual "Can't Remember to Forget You" video, with just over 350 million plays. Shakira also rounds out the top three with her World Cup track.
The rest of the list is pretty predictable. Iggy Azalea's "Fancy" made the cut; so did The Chainsmokers' "#SELFIE." And, what would 2014 be without Frozen? Nothing. So, "Let It Go" is on there, too, because the world cannot let it go.
