The Most Iconic Pop Music Videos of the Decade

A lot has changed since 2010: streaming services like Disney Plus, Amazon Prime, Netflix, and Spotify are popular than ever before, we have been introduced to bigger and better technology, and social media has absolutely exploded. One thing that hasn't changed since the early '10s? Artists like Justin Timberlake, Beyoncé, Miley Cyrus, and Katy Perry are still churning out iconic music videos. While this is by no means an exhaustive list, we've pulled together some of the most memorable pop music videos of the past decade — in no particular order. Note that we've excluded (most) rap and country music to keep this already giant list from getting even more out of control!
