YouTube released its top 10 most-watched videos of 2011. The site surpassed one trillion views this year alone.

2011 was a year of amazing new channels and new stars being discovered, awesome creativity, and of course, Rebecca Black, wrote Kevin Allocca, YouTube trends manager, in a blog post. It was also a year of powerful news stories playing out on YouTube, as people witnessed and documented uprisings and natural disasters, touching personal moments and moments of protest.
The top 10 count does not include videos from major music labels, but YouTube has graciously compiled that list as well.
Jennifer Lopez took the top spot with her music video for On the Floor featuring Pit Bull. Surely viewers tuned in to hear the song and not watch J.Lo writhe in a sequined body suit.
