Psy's music video of "Gentleman" has passed the next landmark at 400 million view counts on YouTube, becoming the 16th most watched video of all time on YouTube.

The music video, released on April 13, has collected over 406,000 clicks and 2.3 million likes.
Along with reaching the new landmark, the video surpassed Bruno Mars' "The Lazy Song" which is just shy of 400 million in view counts.

Currently, Gotye's "Somebody That I Used to Know" stands in the fifteenth spot, just 7 million ahead of "Gentleman." It can be safely assumed that Psy's music video will pass Gotye's in the coming weeks as well.

Psy has three videos in the top 20 most watched YouTube videos of all time. "Gangnam Style" sits alone at the top at 1.6 billion views, while his rendition of "Gangnam Style" with 4minute's HyunA stands at number 20 with 350 million views.

[News] Psy Promotes Korea Via Advertisement on CNN, National Geographic, YouTube

Over the last year or so, Psy has become the face of Korea for many people in the world who have come across the relatively small country in Asia not as well known as China and Japan via "Gangnam Style" and "Gentleman." Psy will now utilize his popularity across the globe to promote the nation of Korea, encouraging tourism, raising more awareness and putting Korea on the global map, so to speak.

Beginning today, Psy's advertisement of various Korean attractions will air on CNN, CCTV, National Geographic, and, of course, YouTube, where Psy is pretty familiar with.

The video, titled Psy's WikiKorea, is a series of six 15-second clips that describe popular attractions including ancient heritages and bustling nightlife.

A new website that works similar to user-operated Wikipedia, named ibuzzkorea.com, has been launched as well. Internet users are able to create and edit Korea-related contents on the website.
Regarding selecting Psy as the face to represent Korea, the Korea Tourism Organization stated, "Psy is one of the few common denominators across the globe today. He will be effective in transcending ethnicities, nationalities and cultural barriers to promote our national attractions to those on the other side of the planet."

[News] Psy Electrifies Crowd At Season 12 'American Idol' Finale With 'Gentleman'

Psy brought the "American Idol" crowd to its feet Thursday night, with a dynamic performance of his new hit single "Gentleman" on the season 12 finale.

"Treating Us To His global anthem, this is called 'Gentleman.'" was host Ryan Seacrest's introduction. "Ladies and Gentleman welcome Psy,"

Standing before a line of dancers dressed in black and white that would have made Robert Palmer proud, Psy treated the crowd of 7,000 at Los Angeles's Nokia Theater to a show stopping performance.

The "Hollywood Reporter" called Psy "Gangnam Style-ish."
But not everyone was impressed by Psy's performance.

Yahoo Music writer Lyndsey Parker of the blog Reality Rocks, called Psy a low point of Fox's "American Idol" season 12 finale.

"Lowlights included... a performance by PSY that should have been on a finale taking place in 2012, not 2013," Parker wrote.

Other lowlights of the show, according to Parker, were Mariah Carey's "poorly lip-synched" performance, Aretha Franklin's video remote appearance with the five "American Idol" finalists, and a "hairography-overloaded performance by ex-judge Jennifer Lopez that made Mariah's lip-synching look credible."

In the end, the "American Idol" season 12 winner was Candice Glover, a 32-year-old soul singer from the South Carolina countryside, who tried out for the show two times before making the cut.

"Oh, my God. Three years," Glover said, breaking down in tears.

"Three years, persistence, determination and a lot of talent," Seacrest answered. "You deserve it."
Glover could barely keep the tears from streaming down her face as she sang her coronation song, "I Am Beautiful."

The season 12 finale was the last show for 11-year judge Randy Jackson.

The episode featured a montage of Jackson's career, and an invitation to return from Seacrest.

"The door is always open, my brother," he said.

Jackson thanked the "American Idol" fans and contestants during his more than a decade as a judge.
"I am so blessed and so honored and so lucky," Randy said, adding of the show's contestants, past and present: "Hopefully I touched their lives a little bit. They certainly touched mine."

Psy's fans were excited he was included in the special "American Idol" episode.

"Psy Oppa I loved you on Idol!" Twitter user Theresa wrote on Thursday.

[News] Psy shares the secrets of his success to Harvard students

Psy revealed the secrets of his success to Harvard students.

1,000 students came out to hear Psy give his lecture at Harvard’s Memorial Church. Recalling back to his four years at nearby Boston University where he studied management, he said, “Who could have known I’d come back to Boston after 14 years and lecture at Harvard? It’s weird. I think that’s why life is so beautiful. I gotta be humble. This doesn’t happen to everybody.”

He confessed, “During college, my nickname was ‘WWF’. It’s not World Wrestling Federation but stood for Withdrawal, Withdrawal, and Fail.” He also shared humorous stories of trying to obtain medicine for his stomach with his limited English and only knowing a few words such as ‘taxi’ and ‘bus’.

On the success of “Gangnam Style“, he said, “It was like an accident, and it doesn’t happen often. The reason why people all over the world like me even though I’m not good looking nor fit is because I’m fun. I’m happy and surprised that even though people don’t know Korean, they enjoy my music and my performances. I can’t say I am the best, but I can say that I’ve tried my best for the last 13 years as an artist.”

[News] Psy Portrait Drawn Using Only Toes

Psy recommended a YouTube clip of a portrait of himself.

Narcissistic? Not quite.

The clip is quite impressive considering the method that was used to complete the entire drawing. Without using his hands, Welsh artist Nathan Wyburn drew a portrait of Psy with the help of his toes, black markers and black paint. Sure enough, Psy was impressed with the quality of the work as well as the unique process undertaken to create the product.

On May 5 via Twitter, Psy remarked, "Wow! Everyone take a look at this clip" and recommended Nathan Wyburn's black-and-white portrait of himself.

The artist, who creates celebrity portraits and pop culture imagery with eccentric mediums, revealed that it took him two hours to finish the drawing and suffered a cramp that ran the entire length of his legs near the end.

[News] Thanks To Canadian Korean War Vets World Can Now Enjoy Psy's 'Gangnam Style'?

According to Canada's Veteran's Affairs Minister, the world would have never known the joys of "Gangnam Style" if it were not for the efforts of Canadian soldiers during the Korean War.

Steven Blaney, the Veteran's Affairs Minister in Canada, said in an interview on May 5 that because of the sacrifice made by Canadian soldiers during the Korean War, the world is able to enjoy Psy's hit song "Gangnam Style."

The conservative cabinet minister said, "We talk about 'Gangnam Style.' There wouldn't be a 'Gangnam Style' if we hadn't had the sacrifice of Canadians, members of the United Nations who came together with a resolve to ensure that we repelled communism."

The interview, which was broadcast on Radio-Canada Sunday evening, was done during a ceremony to pay respect to naval veterans from World War II who took part in the Battle of the Atlantic. The remarks were made during a question and answer session with reporters at the event when Blaney was asked to reflect on his recent trip to South Korea.

In addition to his "Gangnam Style" comment, the minister also described Korea as an international superpower, thriving democracy, and a place where the efforts of Canadians during the Korean War are still recognized and celebrated today.

Blaney did not, however, comment on whether Canadian veterans were also to credit for Psy's latest success with "Gentleman."

[News] 'Little Psy' Hwang Min Woo Victim of Racist Comments

Hwang Min Woo is the 8-year-old who rose to fame after appearing in Psy's international hit music video for "Gangnam Style" and is known to the world as "Little Psy."

Not long after Psy gained worldwide notoriety, the mini-me version of himself also became a celebrity and signed with Star Zone Entertainment.

In March, Little Psy released his first solo single, "Show+Time," and while it was not nearly as popular as efforts by the real Psy, it did create a fair mount of buzz around the little guy - not just for his music.

Hwang Min Woo is the child of an intercultural marriage, his father is Korean and his mother is Vietnamese. Unfortunately this fact has resulted in quite a few problems for the young singer, as he was often bullied by schoolmates.

After getting attention for his connection to Psy and "Gangnam Style," Little Psy and his family thought the negative attention was behind them, but it did not last long.

On May 2, Star Zone Entertainment announced that they had taken legal action against individuals who had posted racist hate speech on their company website in regards to the young boy.

As the police investigation continues, it was revealed that starting on April 23, a day after Little Psy released a parody of "Gentleman," about a dozen members of an internet community known as 'Ilgan Best' began to overwhelm Star Zone Entertainment's homepage with hateful and racist remarks.

The sort of messages left targeted Hwang Min Woo calling him an "inferior half-breed" and suggesting it is wrong for "people like him" to live in Korea.

Star Zone Entertainment filed a report with the police on April 25 and later released a statement saying, "When someone says something so vile against an 8-year-old child just because his father married someone of a different race, how are they in their right mind? We will be taking aggressive measures to find out who the people were behind these hateful posts."

K-Pop idols are often the victims of online abuse from netizens, but everyone seems to agree that these comments crossed a very big line.   "What could you possibly get out of hating a child?" asked one netizen, while others feel sorry for Hwang Min Woo and are showing their support with comments like, "Min Woo doesn't deserve this," and "Find strength Min Woo."

Other netizens are outraged by the racist comments and are calling on the police to catch the individuals responsible.  "Catch them all and reveal their identities," one poster commented, and others have followed suit agreeing with the police plan to identify the people responsible and take the necessary legal action against them.

[VIDEO] Psy Gets Everyone Dancing On The TODAY Show

Psy made an appearance on the "Today Show" May 3 and had not just the audience, but the hosts shaking their tail feathers.
In his first official TV appearance since arriving in the US last week, Psy hit the stage at Rockefeller Center for a lively performance that inspired the Today Show hosts to show off their best dance moves.

 Psy performed his latest hit "Gentleman" as well as old favorite "Gangnam Style" for a crowd of fans Friday morning.

The crowd around the stage were dancing and singing along, but they were not the only ones. The Today Show anchors in New York were seen smiling and dancing along, but others showed off their moves via satellite - David Gregory in Washington DC and Al Roker from Kentucky.

David Gregory even donned a pair of sunglasses during his redition of the "Gangnam Style" horse dance.

When Psy saw Matt Lauer's dancing, he remarked, "Wow. That's beautiful!" and suggested Lauer join him later in the program for some dancing together. Lauer, however, seemed a little embarrassed and was rather noncommittal on the matter.

Before performing the latest single, "Gentleman," Psy told the Today Show that they have been key to his success in the US.

"Not because of just 'Gangnam Style,' but because, you know Today Show I did one last September, and right after that I got a lot," Psy admitted. "So once again, thanks again for having me here one more time, Today Show."

Psy went on to discuss the popularity of "Gentleman" with the Today Show anchors. When Lauer pointed out that the video had already succeeded in getting over 260 million YouTube views, Psy gave credit to his fellow countrymen, giving a shout out in his native tongue, "Korea rules!"

He added, "The population of my country is 50 million, so what can I say?"

The dancing continued on the streets of New York as Psy went on to demonstrate the "arrogant dance" move for the hosts, noting that, "You should be arrogant (when doing it)."

[News] Psy's Fashion: Yay or Nay

He may be the biggest Asian superstar to date, he may hold two Guiness World records for holding the most views on Youtube ever and garnering the most hits in a single day, and he may be the hottest thing since white bread, but who wants to discuss the boring facts? Today we're going to touch upon a subject that has been a consistent factor in bringing Psy so much notoriety-his fashion sense.

From his brightly-colored suits, to his staple bow ties, and signature sunglasses, Psy's style has been a winning factor in his journey towards world domination.

[News] Psy's Half-Million Dollar Donation Worth Much More

Psy was reported to have donated a half-million dollars for children fighting against cancer just  a day prior to his departure for the United States for his promotional tour.

The entire nation of Korea is in love with Psy at the moment. Not only is he sweeping the world with his music and making the fellow Koreans and Asians proud, he has offered a generous sum of giving in appreciation of all the love he has gotten.

Although there has been a slight brake on his momentum with KBS's unreasonable rejection of his music video for public viewing, even that could not stop Psy. Graciously, without argument or drama, he accepted whatever ruling was handed to him.

Then came the donation. And it was not a small amount.

Truth be told, his music sale has not reached a half-million dollars yet. It sure will well exceed it in no time but, at the moment, it is not in Psy's pocket. The rest will come from his savings.

Donations by celebrities are no longer headline news as they have fortunately become a common occurrence. Psy's donation, after all, may not be something to wow at considering the past revelations and news of large amounts of donations that had been made in secret. But Psy's donation is huge indeed. The amount of attention and influence he has carries a ripple effect that is far beyond the check he handed over.
Psy had a comfortable upbringing in a well-to-do family. His donation does not stem so much from the need for catharsis or helping those in situations he has been in. As he stated himself, it is purely giving back a portion of what he received so much. It is akin to social responsibility that progressive-minded business owners preach through their generous acts of giving.

Typically, people are not as moved by the giving of those who have always had enough for themselves. We assume the cynic's position and imagine ourselves easily doing the same if we had just as much financial wiggle room. And at those who seemingly do not make big financial contributions back to the society, we spit and label as selfish.

Psy has made a tremendous decision that will positively affect countless individuals and how they view those in the outskirts of the society. As those hearing the news at the comfort of our homes, the only thing we could do with a clear conscience is applaud at Psy's generosity. Nothing else.

[News] Psy Vs. Big Bang G-Dragon, 'Who is the Fashion Leader?'

Psy has become the king of fashion according to a recent survey by an online shopping mall, I-Magazine.

With 755 participants in the survey, participants were asked to cast their vote on the more hot and stylish celebrity between Psy and G-Dragon. Taking 56% of the votes, Psy received the honor of being 'the' fashionista in K-Pop.

Both are famous for their unique colors of music as well as their unmistakable style, always becoming trendsetters wherever they set foot.

Psy's distinctive selection of clothing in the music video of "Gentleman," which consisted of baggy pants and a power-shoulder jacket, exuded a balanced blend of funny and cool. There is no doubt that not everyone can pull off such an unusual combination of clothing.

G-Dragon, though he was beaten in this particular survey, is a unanimous K-Pop fashionista who is at the center of latest fashion trends. His studded leather jacket and various punk and hip hop accessories in his music video of "MichiGO" were certainly an inspiration to many trendsetters.

Lee Sung Joon, the marketing manager at the I-Magazine, commented that "The common thing between Psy and G-Dragon is that they style their clothes to take attention away from their deficiencies or weaknesses and accentuate their positive features. Anybody can find their own style of fashion if one is willing to be confident and open to try many different things."

[News] Psy, More Than a Singer, 'Total Entertainer'

Eight days ago, Psy's "Gentleman" was revealed. The global online community has been reveling in its humor and fun since then.

"Gentleman" has received more mixed reviews than "Gangnam Style" largely due to its sexual content and raised expectations. But there is no denying that Psy is the hottest celebrity in the world right now. His record-breaking 100 million YouTube hits in 80 hours and entry into Billboard charts at the 12th place are the facts to back up his popularity.

In 2012, the success of "Gangnam Style" can be attributed to its music video's crafty utilization of the visual message for which there is only one universal language. Comical scenes and easy-to-follow dance moves led to its viral popularization, making it one of the hottest items last year.

 "Gentleman" has exactly the same ingredients that made its predecessor a mega hit-universal humor and catchy choreography. Led by its signature 'arrogant dance', the music video took a stab at the follies of today's society such as pretense and façade.

Everyone is entitled to one's opinion whether or not the music video was excessive in sexual content. The debate may never end. But what is certain is that Psy put together a complete package with a quality triad of music, music video and performances, and the world has welcomed it with open arms. As Psy himself mentioned during his concert 'Happening' when the music video was revealed, he is a product of pop culture and an entertainer looking to help the world have more fun.

Psy has become more than just an artist from Korea. Now an established brand, his complete entertainment product is an ideal to be followed.
