Dana Edelson/NBC(NEW YORK) — South Korean rapper PSY can add another notch to his belt this week.  His viral sensation “Gangnam Style” has danced its way into the record books, Guinness style.

PSY’s video has seen a global stamp of approval on YouTube, amassing well over 2,200, 000 YouTube “likes” as of Friday morning and crushing the 1,575,979 tally of previous record holder, LMFAO’S “Party Rock Anthem.” That makes “Gangham Style” the most “liked” video in YouTube history, a mere three months after the video’s release.

As for the all-time most watched YouTube video, that accolade still goes to Justin Beiber, whose 2010 music video for the song “Baby” stands tall at 780,683,863 views. “Gangham Style” has about a quarter of that number at this time.
