BTS Just Broke a YouTube Record Previously Held by Taylor Swift

BTS is back to breaking records. 
The K-pop boy band again seemed to do the impossible as they surpassed Taylor Swift for the most-viewed video within 24 hours on YouTube. 
BTS' "Idol" music video has racked up over 56 million views on the platform within the first day of its release. The record previously belonged to Swift for her "Look What You Made Me Do" music video, which was released during the 2017 MTV Video Music Awards. At the time, it gained just over 43 million views in its first 24 hours. 
The record is also a personal best for BTS, as their music video for "Fake Love," which dropped last May, earned 35 million views on its first day of release. Watch "Idol" below. 
RM, Jungkook, Jimin, Jin, J-Hope, V and Suga have been completely taking over the music world with the release of their new album, Love Yourself: Answer on Friday -- earning the respect of artists across the industry. Nicki Minaj, who is featured on a special version of "Idol," gave the boys a special shout out on Friday. 
"US iTunes All Genres Chart 😊😩 they did NOT come to play wit y’all 🤣. My version of #Idol with #BTS is out now! Congrats to them on a great new album. I’m honored to be a part of it. S/O to #KOREA ‼️" she wrote on Instagram. 
"Super proud of @BTS_twt I told my label about them a while ago it’s a pleasure to release the same time great music boys well done 🙏🏼," Liam Payne tweeted, while Ed Sheeran wrote on his Instagram Story that the band is "about to have an incredible week."

Why Christopher Reeve's ''Superman' Is So Hard to Leave in the Past

#ChristopherReeve #Clarkkent #DCcomics #LoisLane #RichardDonner #Superman Forty years ago, Richard Donner and Christopher Reeve made a Superhero film that directors have been chasing for years, depicting who America was then — or at least who we wished to be Superman. It’s now easy to believe a man can fly. It wasn’t in 1978, but today, in midst of an explosion of superhero movies, it’s a belief we give into with relative ease.
