Rebecca Black Beats Justin Bieber and Lady Gaga on Youtube

If the Internet is one big popularity contest, then the new girl in school just earned a spot at the cool kids' table.

A company that tracks the performance of web videos announced today that the no-budget video for Rebecca Black's annoyingly infectious hit "Friday" has been viewed more times than the latest clips from Justin Bieber and Lady Gaga. Millions of more times. In fact, if you factor in spoofs and cover versions of the song, "Friday" has been streamed online about 30 million more times than Gaga's "Born This Way."

So how does Gaga feel about the competition? Predictably, the champion of the underdog is in Black's corner. She recently called "Friday" "genius," which was understandably a big thrill for 13 year-old Rebecca. "I'm 13 and I never thought Lady Gaga would even know my name. I'm the kind of girl that dances to Lady Gaga with a hairbrush in her room at night."

In case you wanna add to Becky B's stats or somehow forgot what the song sounds like, we've posted the video after the jump. 200 million Youtubers can't be wrong!

Lady Gaga Talks “Judas” Leak

She released her new single “Judas” early because of all the internet leaks of the song, and Lady Gaga explained it was a strange progression.

During her latest “Gagavision” episode, the “Just Dance” songstress described the whole process as a “slow death.”

"'Judas' is leaking, it's like a slow death. They [the leaks] were tearing at the song, first it was the arm and then it was the liver."

As for how she writes her songs, Gaga shared, "The creative process is 15 minutes of vomiting and then days, weeks, months, years of fine tuning."

Lady Gaga Lashes Out at Critics

Offering up some rather strong words pointed at critics who have an issue with her style, Lady Gaga let it all out in a new interview out in NME magazine.

The mother Monster took to the mag to lash out against those voicing distaste with her unique ways, saying, "If you want me to be a manufactured act, you can f*ck off. "

The 25-year-old also spoke about the similarities she sees between herself and John Lennon, saying that she struggles to ever be completely happy with her songs. "I am perpetually unhappy with what I create. Even though I might tell you that 'Edge Of Glory' is a pop masterpiece, when it's all said and finished there will be things I dread, and every time I listen to it I'll hear them."

Gaga went on to add, "In John Lennon's [1980] Playboy interview he talked about how he hated certain songs because of the way they were finished. And they might be my favorite songs, but Lennon couldn't listen to them."

Lady Gaga Meets the Evil Queen!

Taking advantage of a break from stage duties, Lady Gaga paid a visit to the Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World Resort in Lake Buena Vista, FL over the weekend (April 16).

The "Judas" singer seemed to be having a marvelous time as she gave a growl while clenching an apple and striking a pose with the Evil Queen from the legendary Disney film "Snow White".

The Magic Kingdom visit came just hours after Gaga proudly unveiled the cover art to her album “Born This Way,” as she tweeted to her millions of followers, "So happy+free to finally share this w you, riding around with the booklet! Can't believe its here!"

The new album's artwork was put together by Nick Knight and the Haus of Gaga creative team while depicting the 25-year-old blended into a motorcycle in a black and white design topped off with colorful red lips. "Born This Way" is set to be released on May 23rd.

Justin Bieber guested on Ellen DeGeneres’ daytime talk show on Wednesday bearing a gift, making a superfan’s day, and wearing a pair of purple ‘Ellen’ branded underpants.

The “Baby” singer also joined the host and British singer James Blunt to speculate what Lady Gaga new single, “Born This Way,” will sound like.

The new Gaga song doesn’t debut on the radio until Friday and the three stars shared their thoughts on what it’s going to sound like – based only on the song’s lyrics, which were released January 27th by Gaga via her TwitLonger page.

Ellen kicked things off by playing piano and singing the song’s chorus, “Ooo There Ain’t No Other Way / Baby I Was Born This Way / Baby I Was Born This Way,” before calling on James Blunt for some help.

The British singer gave the lyrics a shot while strumming a few chords from his smash hit, “You’re Beautiful,” before DeGeneres called for more backup – Justin Bieber.

The show’s crew wheeled Bieber out behind a drum kit & keyboard setup and he offered his take on the new single and showed his chops on the drums and keys.

Bieber also gave Ellen a belated birthday gift – a lock of his hair – and surprised his “biggest fan” with flowers.

“I finally have a lock of @JustinBieber‘s hair. I’m gonna clone him,” Ellen Tweeted after the show. Check out the videos below!
