‘Harlem Shake’ Shakes It Across YouTube, With Over 44 Million Views

Technically, the “Harlem Shake” was a dance move from the ’80s. It began in New York’s Harlem, and was popular in music videos. Then, in 2011, it was the title of an electronic song produced by Baauer. Now, in 2013, the song has become the track of many viral videos.

It seems to have started with the video below. The video of people wearing masks and dressed in latex suits, one in a Power Ranger costume, was uploaded to YouTube on Jan. 30, 2013. As you’ll see in the video, which has been viewed over three million times, everyone dances.

But the dance and the video premise evolved. A YouTube user by the name of TheSunnyCoastSkateuploaded a video in which everyone around him was just going about their business while he danced to the music with a motorcycle helmet on. Then when the lyrics start, everyone else starts dancing.




According to YouTube, that’s the video that started the real viral trend.  As of Feb. 11, there have been over 12,000 “Harlem Shake” videos, and they’ve been watched more than 44 million times. Now, YouTube says, over 4,000 of these crazy dance videos are being uploaded per day.

And it hasn’t just been YouTube stars uploading these videos. Lots of media companies and offices jumped on the trend. Buzzfeed, Now This News, College Humor and others have uploaded some pretty hilarious, jam-packed dance videos. Then came ones from West Point, the Coast Guard Academy and the Air Force Academy.

Now, of course, the competition is on for the best Harlem Shake video on the Internet. We leave you with some of our favorites.

Vajzat VIP me te pasme seksi

Jemi mësuar me bukuroshet e pasarelave që të duken me vithe shumë seksi, jemi mësuar edhe me botën e shoubizit të bëhen krahasime se cila nga artistet i ka të pasmet më seksi.

Por, nëse mendoni se në botën shqiptare nuk ka Kajli Minog, Xhenifer Lopes, apo Kim Kardashian e keni gabim. Ne kemi renditur vetëm disa prej vipave shqiptare, të cilat shumica prej tyre duken se vetë na kanë ofruar të shohim reklamën e fund-shpinës së tyre se çfarë formë ka.

E para, e cila është lakuar aq shumë, është  këngëtarja Shkëndije Mujaj, që megjithëse thuhet se ka ndërhyrje, ajo potencon gjithmonë se është vetëm dora e nënës natyrë për të pasmet e saj kaq të rrumbullakëta.

Edhe këngëtarja Adelina Berisha shpeshherë na sjell reklamën e fund-shpinës së saj, që kohët e fundit është bërë objekt i madh diskutimi, ndërsa në bazë të informacione të sigurta ajo i ka origjinale.

Aktorja e famshme shqiptare, Arta Dobroshi, erdhi kohë më parë në kronikën rozë me reklamimin, që, sipas zërave, thuhet se e ka tradhtuar fustani dhe era që frynte në Kanë, ndërsa kalonte në tepihun e kuq. Kaq shumë u lakua me zbulimin e vitheve ajo, saqë fama e saj si aktore u harrua për një kohë.

Ajo është modele dhe pa dyshim se duhet të jetë seksi edhe kur bëhet fjalë për të pasmet e saj. Është kjo Afërdita Dreshaj, e cila nuk ka rezistuar dot të pozojë e kthyer pas, për të treguar se edhe aty është në formë.

Këngëtarja, e cila sapo i këndoi një djali që s’ka zemër në ‘Kënga Magjike 2012’, Rozana Radi, para se të interpretonte këtë këngë, ka realizuar edhe ajo para pasqyrës një foto të tillë, por që, sipas shikimin tonë, më mirë të mos e kishte bërë se të pasmet e saja duken të varfra.

Edhe një tjetër këngëtare, që shquhet për simpatinë e saj, kur ishte në plazh, ka treguar se ka të pasme seksi, kjo është Adelina Tahiri. Ndërsa nuk mund të lëmë jashtë në këtë klasifikim vajzash seksi të shoubizit shqiptar edhe Elvana Gjatën, e cila jo rrallëherë tregon se konkurron bindshëm koleget e saja me të pasmet.

Ndërsa këngëtarja më e lakuar shqiptare e momentit, Rita Ora, si duket e ka problemet me paparacët me dashje apo pa dashje ajo i ka treguar vithet e saja. Ndërsa e fundit që mund të hyjë në këtë listë apo më e freskëta është bukuroshja e famshme nga BB5, Françeska Jace, që ka dashur të tregojë se edhe ajo duket mirë nga pas.

Tek po bënim këtë përshkrim dhe klasifikim për bukuroshet tona, seç na u kujtua gjatësia e tyre e cila nga të pasmet e tyre seksi duket sikur është në përpjesëtim të zhdrejtë, e megjithatë pjesa më e madhe e tyre duke na ofruar këto foto nëpërmjet rrjeteve sociale, këtë konkurs duket sikur e kanë nisur vetë. 

Britney Spears and will.i.am 'Scream & Shout' about nothing

No one will ever accuse Britney Spears or will.i.am of being lyrical geniuses, but as their new single went to No. 1 on iTunes this week and the video for "Scream & Shout" goes viral, we had to ask: Is this really all fans want from their pop stars?

The nearly 5-minute dance track plays like a forgotten sample from a Black Eyed Peas song, with Britney doing the Fergie talkie parts in what some are hearing as a pseudo-British accent. That's British, as in England. Not Britnish, as in Louisiana.

The whole thing comes off so visually lazy. More than 3 million people have watched Britney stand still, lie down and half-heartedly vogue. For his part, will.i.am puts his hands to his mouth. Oh! He's shouting. The 853 million people who have made "Gangnam Style" the most watched YouTube video ever are shouting, too. Because it's fun to watch!

The princess of pop -- who turns 31 on Sunday -- has had six No. 1 albums over her career. She ranksseventh on Forbes' list of 2012's highest-paid musicians -- $58 million in record sales, touring, endorsements and more. In the '90s, songs like "... Baby One More Time" and "Oops! ... I Did It Again" may not have said anything earth-shattering on their way to No. 1, but compared to "Scream & Shout" ...It's 2012, so we gave up the why-does-everything-have-to-be-AutoTuned fight years ago. And we're still young enough to know about da club and the music played there, even if we can't stay awake long enough to go dance. But Britney and will are saying NOTHING, and this "Get off my lawn!" rant is for all those who still prefer a song that says SOMETHING.

"... Baby One More Time":
My loneliness is killin' me / I must confess I still believe / When I'm not with you I lose my mind /Give me a sign, hit me baby one more time."

"Scream & Shout":
"Everybody in the club / all eyes on us / all eyes on us / all eyes on us."

Listen for yourself right here (and turn it down if you don't want to blast a couple naughty words):

Beyonce out to prove she can sing after lip-synching controversy

YOU can rest assured that Beyonce won't be lip-synching this time around.

The singer is hard at work perfecting her performance for the upcoming Super Bowl final after she was criticised for lip-synching the national anthem at Barack Obama's inauguration a few weeks ago.

The 31-year-old released a short clip of the first day of rehearsals as she prepares to take to the Superdome on Sunday.

Last week, Us Weekly reported that her performance would include her hit song Crazy In Love, before Destiny's Child members Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams joined her for Bills, Bills, Bills, Survivor and a new single called Nuclear.

Earlier today, Beyonce performed the American national anthem for journalists who had gathered at a press conference, in an effort to prove once and for all that she was more than capable of belting it out.

During the press conference, she also admitted to lip-synching at the inauguration, saying she was forced to use a pre-recorded track because she didn't have enough time to rehearse.

“I am a perfectionist, I will practise until my feet bleed but I didn't get a chance," she told media.

“The inauguration was about the President, I wanted to make him and the country proud. I decided to sing along with my pre-recorded track which is something that is common in the music industry.

I always sing live, the inauguration was unfortunately a time when I didn't have time to rehearse with the the orchestra because I was rehearsing for the Super Bowl. I'm very proud of my performance.”

She confirmed that she would "absolutely be singing live" at the Super Bowl on Sunday.

“I will absolutely be singing live, I am well rehearsed. This is what I am born for.

“I've had a 16 year career and everything I've done has prepared me for this, I'm ready. It is something we've been preparing for for about four or five months but I am nervous.”

Sylvester Stallone supports assault weapon ban

SYLVESTER Stallone says that despite his Rambo image he's in favour of new national gun control legislation.

Stallone supported the 1994 "Brady Bill" that included a now-expired ban on assault weapons, and hopes that ban can be reinstated.

"I know people get (upset) and go, 'They're going to take away the assault weapon.' Who ... needs an assault weapon? Like really, unless you're carrying out an assault. ... You can't hunt with it. ... Who's going to attack your house, a (expletive) army?"

The 66-year-old actor, writer and director said he also hopes for an additional focus on mental health to prevent future mass shootings.

"It's unbelievably horrible, what's happened. I think the biggest problem, seriously, is not so much guns. It's that every one of these people that have done these things in the past 30 years are friggin' crazy. Really crazy! And that's where we've dropped the ball: mental health," he said.

"That to me is our biggest problem in the future, is insanity coupled with isolation."

Stallone is now in production on his next project, pairing up with the former Raging Bull Robert De Niro for Grudge Match, about two aging boxers.

"People think it's going to be some geezer brawl. Really? OK, they're in for a surprise. I'm telling you. I've been working on the fight, the choreography. He's taking it deadly serious. Because no one wants to be shown up," Stallone said of De Niro.

"It's going to be like a Rocky fight. This will be Rocky 7, with me fighting - with Rocky fighting theRaging Bull."

Eminem Reveals 2013 Album

The Detroit Tigers may have been swept out of baseball’s World Series by the San Francisco Giants, but the D still has plenty to celebrate now that there are signs that their native son Eminem will be dropping his eighth solo album next year.

Over the weekend, Eminem’s official online store debuted a Marshall Mathers baseball cap styled like the famous blue-and-white hat the Tigers wear. Instead of the iconic D, the new Slim Shady-inspired headwear features a backwards E and an inscription with the years Em dropped each of his solo albums on the side panel. “Side panel is dedicated to the landmark Eminem solo albums. A portion of the proceeds will go to the Marshall Mathers Foundation,” reads the description on the site.

The 1996 inscription commemorates the release of indie debut Infinitewhile 2010 marks the drop of Marshall’s last LP Recovery, but fanatics with a keen eye noticed the 2013 entry that points to a new album for next year — even though his label has not confirmed a date.

In August, while out promoting Slaughterhouse’s Shady Records debut, Em confirmed to MTV News correspondent Sway Calloway that he was once again in album mode. “I’ve actually kinda just started. I’ve been on the move a little bit too, so I’ve in between things, sneak songs in here and there,” Em said during a radio interview flanked by Joe Budden, Joell Ortiz, Royce da 5’9″ and Crooked I.

Last month, platinum producer No I.D. confirmed exclusively with MTV News that he and Em have made plans to hit the studio together. “I definitely sat down and spoke with Eminem about working and we agreed to get in the studio and see what we could do,” he said. “He’s one of the best, I want to work with one of the best and try and give some music contributions. I think that would be one of the next steps in that lineage of what I’m trying to do.”

On top of his solo mission, last week SIlm Shady also teamed up with his pal 50 Cent to shoot a video for Fif’s upcoming Street King Immortalalbum in Michigan Central Station in Detroit.
