Miley Cyrus’ Wrecking Ball breaks YouTube record

Miley Cyrus seems to always be in the headlines these days, first for her shocking performance at the 2013 MTV Video Music Awards and now for her new single Wrecking Ball. The single released on Monday, September 10 and in 24 hours, it was the most watched video on YouTube beating previous record holders, One Direction.

The song clearly about her on and off boyfriend Liam Hemsworth but what really made the video go viral is her riding naked on a wrecking ball and her licking a sledge hammer. The music itself is completely put on the back burner, as Cyrus’ antics continue to be the focus of what should be her music career.
