3.) Facebook Official

We're going to go out on a limb and say this new video from former N'Sync member Lance Bass is fake. But even if you believe it to be the real thing, everyone is talking about Heart2Heart's new single, Facebook Official. Go on girl, let's make it official.


4.) Emmanuel Kelly

Every year without fail the reality show X Factor produces one insanely heart wrenching video that is impossible to watch without crying. First it was Susan Boyle and now it's handsome, tearjerker Emmanuel Kelly. Seriously, we dare you to watch this without shedding at least one tear.


5.) Maru in slow motion

Did the world's most famous Japanese cat just get a little more famous and a little more cute? Yup, that is Maru jumping after toys in slow motion, and yes you are allowed to watch this more than once. We won't judge.
