♪ (industrial intro) ♪
So today, we're gonna be showing you the top 10
most viewed music artists of all time on YouTube.
- Sick. - (FBE) And we're gonna see
if you can correctly place them in order from one to ten.
- Oh, no. I have a feeling that I'm gonna recognize all of these.
But ranking of them, I think it's gonna be a little bit harder.
- (FBE) We got this list by looking at the most viewed
YouTube channels overall and only looking for those channels
dedicated to a single performer or group.
The list accurate as of the day we are filming, but it may
change over time. - Yes, of course.
- (FBE) We also see in the comments and our social media that viewers
at home play along with you all. So, everyone watching,
grab a pen and paper and leave us a comment or tweet us
on how you did compared to the reactors.
- Have fun. I hope guys get more points than me.
- You're probably gonna do better than me,
but I'm gonna try to beat you.

- I totally messed this up, but I guess I'm gonna give him
number two. - I did put him at number nine.
I could be really screwed right now, because whoever this is,
they're in the number one spot on my list.
And maybe it was a bad mistake.
- ♪ At first sight I... ♪ - WOOOOOOO!
- I was actually thinking, "Where's Rihanna?"

- ♪ Like diamonds in the sky ♪ - She's so-- ah!
I'm getting emotional, because it's so nostalgic.
- Rihanna's had a lot of big hits over the years.
I'ma put Riri at three.
- I guess I'm putting Rihanna by default at my number one.
- Well, I only have ninth place. I gotta put her at ninth.
There's only a couple things that I think I might change.
- (FBE) So now that you've watched through all these,
we're gonna give you a chance to make changes.
Let us know when you're locked. Remember, you get two points
for every answer you get exactly correct
and one point for every answer you're only one off for.
- Okay. I'm just gonna stick to Rihanna.
Is that wrong of me? - I feel confident with Taylor
and J. Biebs at one and two. The rest of the list, though,
I'm not too sure about. - Let's put Ed at seven.
I'm really trying to strategize, but don't let me fool you.
I don't think I know what I'm doing.
- (FBE) So, here's the actual order going from 10 to one.
Number 10 is J Balvin. - Seriously?!
That's my number one. - Oh! J, you let me down!
- Yes! Okay! I moved him to the right spot.
- (FBE) Coming at number nine, Enrique Iglesias.
- Number nine is Enrique. I put him at eight.
- Okay! So, I got one point. - Ohh, I'm doing so good!
- (FBE) Coming in at number eight, Maroon 5.
- Damn, I put 'em at six. - I put them way higher.
I put them at number four. - Ah. Look at me!
- (FBE) Coming at number seven, Eminem.
- That's right on the money! I got that!
- I had him at 10. - Wha-- but wait.
Things are not looking well. - Guys, I'm a witch.
- (FBE) Coming at number six, Rihanna. - Ri-- whaaat?!
- What the hell? Are you serious?
Put her at number one, dude! - What?!
Well, good thing I didn't put her at number one.
- (FBE) Coming at number five, Shakira.
- Aww. I got that way off. - Okay, so I'm one off.
- Oh, I got six! That's another point.
- Noo, I gave her the six. - (FBE) Coming in at number four,
Ed Sheeran. - What the [bleep]?
That guy is a beast. - Ahhh. Ed, I put you at one, dude.
- I had Ed Sheeran now as number two.
I moved him around. - (FBE) Coming in at number three,
Taylor Swift. - I put her as number four.
I'm kinda getting it right, sort of. - YES! I got that one right!
Finally. - No! NO!
I had her at number one! - Okay, I put Taylor Swift at two,
so that gives me one. (gasps) Did Katy Perry
beat Taylor Swift? - (FBE) Coming in at number two,
Katy Perry. - No, she's not!
Are you serious? - I had Katy at five.
- That's beef, because that's what the "Bad Blood" music video
was about, and Katy Perry's outranking Taylor.
(sucks in breath) Yikes.
- (FBE) So that means that number one...
is Justin Bieber. - Damn! I had him at three.
I should've had one. I almost-- I erased this [bleep].
- Why would I put the Biebs at number seven?!
He's my number one guilty pleasure! I'm very ashamed right now.
- "Baby" got over a billion views, because people HATED it.
But watch him, he's number one now.
I feel good about 10. I don't think I've ever
been in the double digits before. - Hey, I got five points.
That's pretty good. As more new artists emerge,
we're just gonna keep hitting higher and higher peaks
as greater things get done, and this is gonna be
completely outdated in a year or five years,
10 years, 'cause there's so many new players on the field.
