"....Justin Bieber, who recently won artist of the year "
An artist? He has never created a single piece of art! Not even his image is his own.

Google and YouTube "hits counters" are notoriously unreliable. There is plenty of evidence that the stats don't match reality, lots has been written and documented about it on the internet, yet some don't want anything else but being misled by the giant.
