Numerous people watched Justin Bieber's 'Boyfriend' video during its first day online

  • May 7, 2012
  • Brad O'Mance

Justin Bieber's 'Boyfriend' video has broken Rihanna's VEVO record for most views in a 24 hour period, reports Ace Showbiz.

The 'homage' to *NSYNC's 'Girlfriend' was watched more than 8 million times in its first day on the internet, nearly twice as much as Rihanna's 'Where Have You Been' had achieved last week.

As of right now, the video's been watched 17,350,388 times, which is fucking mental really par­tic­u­larly con­sid­er­ing it's not very good.
