The video recorded 402.1 million hits as of 11 a.m., jumping to 16th place on YouTube`s all-time list of most-viewed videos.
The milestone was reached 55 days after its release on April 13 and 29 days after the video broke the 300 million mark on May 9.
The singer`s previous hit "Gangnam Style" has attracted more than 1.6 billion YouTube views, but it took about 85 days to reach the 400 million mark on Oct. 8, last year.
But the growth pace of views on "Gentleman" has recently slowed.
Psy is scheduled to attend the annual Muz-TV music awards in Moscow on Friday and perform his new song.
On Saturday, he will perform as a special guest in the final round of "Britain`s Got Talent Season 7," the country`s most popular TV audition program, according to his local management firm.
