WATCH: Wiz Khalifa's 'See You Again' now most-viewed YouTube video

Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 12 Jul, 2017 11:47 AM
    SAN BRUNO, Calif. — Move over, "Gangnam Style." YouTube has a new top-viewed video of all time.
     
     
    Wiz Khalifa's video for "See You Again" featuring Charlie Puth became the site's most-watched video Monday and has more than 2.896 billion views as of Tuesday. That's about 2 million more than the video for Korean rapper Psy's 2012 smash "Gangnam Style," which held the most-viewed title for five years, YouTube said.
     
     
    Justin Bieber's "Sorry" sits in third place, more than 250 million views behind the leaders.
     
     
     
     
    Puth reacted with surprise on Twitter , noting that he joined YouTube in 2007 hoping to make a video that would hit 10,000 views. Puth also earned a congratulatory message from YouTube star Tyler Oakley, who called the feat "legendary & epic."
     
     
    Wiz Khalifa said in a statement that he's happy the song has been able to "inspire and impact so many lives."
     
     
    "See You Again" was released in 2015 as a tribute to late "Fast and the Furious" star Paul Walker.
