The "Boyfriend" video has shattered all YouTube records since its MTV premiere.  The clip generated eight million views in its first 24 hours and has built up to over 86 million views.  With worldwide album sales in excess of 15 million units, Bieber has dominated pop culture and social media for more than two years.  He has over 46 million Facebook fans, more than 28 million Twitter followers, and over three billion YouTube views.
