I doubt it too but if we could get to that goal (15M US-only views ) before the streaming week is up, that would be nice

Little Mix's Salute has 218k likes and only has 8.6million views . no doubt that it's more than double than what the view count is right now for Ariana .

Little Mix have approximately seventy fans though.

Actually it's very possible for the numbers to be real. One Direction is an example of a strange likes/view ratio because of their large fanbase that will automatically like their video.

Usually a video is at like 100-200 million views when it achieves 1 million likes but One Directions You and I achieved 1 million likes at like 45-50 million views.

I don't know if we should be that optimistic yet. Right off the bat, I can say that she definitely should sell 200k+ in the first week. 400k is a different story.

^tbh, a more dedicated fanbase -> more automatic likes -> distorted like/view ratio
and assuming that the poor video doesnt attract people to replay it ...

no offense but what if people just automatically liked the video and exited it at 0:08 when the flexible scary guy appears which is less than the 30-second minimum

yeah i noticed little mix's videos' like/view ratio too

Don't be so pessimistic, pray for those views and replay the video instead.

#cut4views

why are the views still being updated if it's a glitch though

Lets get this trending WW

Shakira's Dare video has 56M views and 374K likes, while Problem has 219K likes. Everything's possible.

Plus, since the song is pretty huge and popular at the moment, I think that people, who don't use Spotify or whatever, and don't have the single on their phones/computers might be playing the video as well only so they could listen to the song.

"ariana grande problem official video" shows up for me.
