This is cute cos Gaga already did reach 2 billion lmao

Bieber did it first, then Gaga, then Rihanna.

I would've thought GaGa would have reached it first (not sure if [@]@Judas[/@] was saying that). Anyway, congrats to her for reaching it! Doesn't really matter if she was first.

Aha, I read the message again - and realised the strongest point in makes.... "Vevo". I think GaGa used her 'personal' account or one via her record company before she went Vevo? Which would explain why it says total views on 'vevo' specifically.

If that is the case... that can be very misleading ;/

Ohh right, that might be why.

I'm sure Gaga was after Rihanna as she has 400,000 less views than Rihanna. Oh well it doesn't really bother me

Oh I see. Some sites are reporting them just as "YouTube views" which is wrong, then...

When you think about it, it's not all that surprising seeing as Rihanna has been around far longer than Gaga and has several more hugely popular singles.
