    Carly Rae Jepsen – Best Celebrity “Call Me Maybe” Videos and Who Should Make One Next

    Carly Rae Jepsen's "Call Me Maybe" has become the hottest song (and probably pick-up line) of the summer thanks to how cute and catchy it is. However, the infectious earworm has had a little help from celebrities that love the song so much that they've recorded their own music videos for it.

    Carly Rae is Justin Bieber's protégé, and he found a clever way to get his Beliebers to become her biggest fans - he and some of his celeb pals got the whole "Call Me Maybe" viral video trend started by recording their own fun lip dub of the song.

    The Biebs' video features cameos from Big Time Rush, Ashley Tisdale, and even Selena Gomez. There are fake mustaches; a banana being used as a phone; an almost-kiss between Justin and Selena; and a copy of "The Hunger Games." All the stars in the video look like their having loads of fun, so it's no surprise that it went viral (it currently has over 42 millions views on YouTube).

    The "Fashion Police" crew decided to spoof that video by making a raunchier version with "Fifty Shades of Grey" standing in for "The Hunger Games" and a banana in George Kotsiopoulos' pants (high heels gets used as a phones in this one, of course). The video also features celeb cameos by Kimora Lee Simmons, Vanessa Williams, and Rachel Dratch; Joan Rivers crawling through Kelly Osbourne's legs; and a fun new game - mannequin leg limbo.

    Giuliana Rancic has actually appeared in two viral "Call Me Maybe" videos. She also got to get down in the Miss USA lip dub alongside the pageant contestants and co-host Andy Cohen, and of course Donald Trump also made a cameo -- even when he's lip synching different words, it still looks like he's saying, "You're fired!" You can argue amongst yourselves about which video is hotter - this one or the one that the Miami Dolphins cheerleaders did. Both vids feature the girls copying the choreography made famous by the Harvard University baseball players in their viral video.

    Katy Perry also rocked out to "Call Me Maybe" at Coachella. The purple-haired pop princess and some pals (including a Zooey Deschanel lookalike) danced poolside and sang along to the song while flinging an inflatable monkey around.

    So with so many stars recording their own videos for the tune, here's the big question: who should do it next? We're kind of hoping to see adorable boy band One Direction make Carly Rae's song even cuter. But for now Directioners will have to settle for fan-made "Call Me Maybe" videos like this one, which shows why the guys definitely should take on the song. One Direction fans were probably also delighted when Zayn Malik, Liam Payne, and Louis Tomlinson tried to start a rumor that Niall Horan and Carly Rae slept together (and the Biebs thinks that he's the best pop star prankster!).

    So which of these "Call Me Maybe" videos is your favorite, and which celebs do you think should create videos for the tune?
