Rihanna has broken yet another record, she has now become the most viewed female recording artist on YouTube. Lady Gaga was formerly the most viewed female artist, in 2011 she attracted over 3,000,000 viewers daily. Her views grew after her single Talk That Talk was released.  Her single 'We Found Love' attracted over 100 million views.

Gaga, although still very popular among-st fans is no longer reaching the massive numbers. Her latest singles such as 'You and I' and 'Marry the Night' did not reach more than 50 million views. Previously her single 'Born this Way' reached over 88 million views and 'Telephone' reached over 100 million views in total.

Although the two artists have managed to reach massive numbers they have not been able to top Justin Bieber. Who has in total well over 2 billion views  on his YouTube channel.

For Rihanna this is just another record broken, she was also named the biggest selling digital artist in the history of music this year. Her music has reached over 47.5 million digital downloads in her career.  Black eyed peas are in second place with 42.4 million digital downloads.

Rihanna also surpassed Janet Jackson and Stevie wonder on the list of artists with most number 1 singles. She has 11 number one singles, and only artists like Michael Jackson, The Beatles and Elvis Presley have had more number 1 singles.
