13 June 2012, 12:12 | Updated: 4 December 2017, 11:10
We take a look at the various covers, parodies and lip syncs of Carly Rae Jepsen's hit single 'Call Me Maybe'.
Since it was released earlier this year, Carly Rae Jepsen's 'Call Me Maybe' has proved itself to be one of the catchiest songs of 2012.
Not only did the crowd sing a long to every word during her surprise performance at Summertime Ball 2012, but a number of celebrities have also found it infectious.
Katy Perry, Justin Bieber and Hollywood superstar actor James Franco have all released their own versions of 'Call Me Maybe', so Capital thought it was time we rounded-up our top ten favourites.
A host of others have also got involved, such as Baseball teams, cheerleading squads and even the President of the United States, Barack Obama...sort of!
