Rihanna has passed Justin Bieber as YouTube's most-watched video artist

As of yesterday, Rihanna's 77 videos on her VEVO channel had 3.784 billion views, about 2 million more than the 79 videos on Justin's VEVO channel.

Rihanna has 8.734 million subscribers compared to Bieber's 4.954 million.

Bieber is still the Twitter champ and recently became the first to accrue 40 million followers.

Danielle Bradbery is "The Voice".

The 16-year-old country singer from Cypress, Texas, was named Season 4 winner of the NBC singing competition, winning the viewer vote over the other two finalists: 26-year-old Michelle Chamuel and the Swon Brothers. Chamuel finished second and the Swon Brothers finished third.

The victory by Bradbery is the third in four seasons for a member of coach Blake Shelton's team.


The two-hour finale featured musical stars including Cher, who performed "Woman's World", the first single of her upcoming album of the same name.

Pitbull and Christina Aguilera opened the show with a duet and country's Florida Georgia Line and hip-hop's Nelly performed together. Bruno Mars sang his newest single, "Treasure", which was taped before the recent death of his mother.

The finalists got their chance to perform with the stars, too. Bob Seger, joined by the Swon Brothers, performed his hit "Night Moves". Hunter Hayes and Bradbery sang a duet of "I Want Crazy".

Song of the Week - Chloe - Emblem3

Candy Crush Saga has officially swept the nation.

personally i dont get it. ive downloaded it and played it once or twice but i couldnt get into it so i deleted it.
but im well aware that im in the minority on this one, as every day i get tons of game requests to either play or 'send a friend a life' (?) or other things with game jargon that i dont even understand.

Some games have turned into movies with a bit of success (Mortal Kombat, Resident Evil) so it was only a matter of time til someone got around to turning Candy Crush Saga (and other popular smartphone games) into a movie.

and here's the trailer...

ok so its not a REAL movie (but a damn good trailer which makes me wish it was one)
this work is actually done by YouTube sensation Ryan Higa (who started out lipsyncing to popular songs on YouTube to now making comedic videos that get over 5-6 million views)

This latest one is destined to be his best work yet.
And rightfully so due to the incredible success of the game itself.
In the past couple of months Candy Crush has become the most popular game on Facebook and among the top apps in the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store. According to King, the maker of the game, it's being played more than half a billion times a day on mobile just alone.

So even though this here video is just a 'parody' of a trailer of what a 'Candy Crush Movie' would be like.
The chance of an actual real-life movie may not be too far off.

Justin Bieber picked up the favorite artist trophy at the MuchMusic Video Awards in Toronto, Sunday night.

He beat out homegrown competition from fellow Canadians Carly Rae Jepsen, deadmau5, Drake and rockers Marianas Trench, which earlier in the evening won for best pop video of the year for "Desperate Measures".

Marianas Trench also picked up the favorite video award for "Stutter".

And the favorite artist or group was won by crossover country star Taylor Swift, who was on hand for her first appearance at the MMVAs as she brought her Red tour to Toronto for a two-night stand on Friday and Saturday.

In the international video of the year competition, Demi Lovato and her "Heart Attack" video beat out strong competition from Justin Timberlake's "Mirrors", Ed Sheeran and "Give Me Love" and Nicki Minaj's "Va Va Voom".

The best international video by a Canadian artist went to Avril Lavigne for "Here's to Never Growing Up".

The Canadian music video showcase included performances by Philip Phillips, Lovato, Sheeran, Lavigne and co-host Psy, who closed out the MMVAs by performing "Gentlemen".

The MMVAs aired on MuchMusic in Canada and Fuse in the U.S.
