Three days after sharing the video on Facebook, it has gotten more than 11 million views.

As of this writing, the video has been viewed more than 13.2 million times already.

Balang caught the attention of millions of netizens, including “Sorry” singer, Justin Bieber himself.

On Twitter, Justin Bieber quoted the ELLE Magazine’s tweet about Balang’s viral video and said:

Kills it

— Justin Bieber

Just in case you haven’t heard of Balang, he’s got lots of viral videos but his “Sorry” dance video is the highest and most popular so far.

Did you know that he had been invited to the Ellen DeGeneres Show twice?

And like what the popular American blogger, columnist and TV personality Perez Hilton said on his website, Ellen may invite him to her show in the U.S. for the third time.

The 7-year-old dance sensation from the Philippines has already appeared on Ellen twice — and we have a feeling he’ll be on a third time soon enough!

Perez Hilton even called Balang, a “viral superstar”, which we think Balang really is.

Because of the popularity of Balang’s “Sorry” dance video, other big international publications and news sites have written about it; like Time.com, MTV.com, Elle.com, to name a few.
