Chart Toppers
WWEFanNation now sits comfortably atop the US chart. The YouTube home of World Wrestling Entertainment dropped 4% in views this week, but still has the #1 spot in a chokehold with more than 95.4 million views. Up next is BuzzFeedVideo. Video iterations of listicles and animated GIFs gave the popular website’s YouTube channel nearly 85.6 million views on the week.
Next up in third place is DisneyCollectorBR. The internet’s prime destination for videos featuring adults playing with children’s toys was up 3% on the week to top out at almost 75.6 million views. Up next is Taylor Swift. The international country-turned-pop star’s channel’s view count dipped 10% to bottom out at nearly 67.6 million views in the week.
And rounding out the Top 5 is PopularMMOs. The top gamer on the US chart scored more than 58.2 million views during the week.
Top Gainers
The honor of one of our Top Gainers in the U.S. this week goes to Fox Movies.
The YouTube home to trailers and sneak peeks from upcoming 21st Century Fox feature films took home the top gainer title in the US and the world this week thanks to a Marvel character with an attitude. Not only did the trailer for Ryan Reynold’s upcoming Deadpool flick rack up an eight-figure view count, but the trailer for the trailer did, too. Both videos helped Fox’s YouTube channel to a 122% week-over-week increase in views, more than 34.2 million views on the week, and the #21 spot on the US chart.
