Gangnam Style breaks YouTube views record


SEOUL: South Korean pop sensation Psy's ''Gangnam Style'' on Saturday became YouTube's most-watched video of all time, registering more than 803 million views to overtake ''Baby'' by Canadian heartthrob Justin Bieber.

The 34-year-old rapper has rocketed to fame since his ''Gangnam Style'' video - in which he performs his now famous horse-riding dance - became a worldwide hit following its release in July.

Earlier this month the song ousted Jennifer Lopez's dance hit ''On the Floor'' from second place on YouTube, and on Saturday it overtook Bieber's hit.

In the evening, it had racked up 803,761,928 views against 803, 658, 345 for "Baby".
