Bruno Mars has addressed the apparent $50 million debt he's in on his social media.
Mars, who is best known for songs like 'Locked Out of Heaven' and 'The Lazy Song', has continued his success of late and released a series of hit singles.
One of his biggest recent songs is 'Die With A Smile' with Lady Gaga, which has hit the number one spot on the Billboard Hot 100.

He is also featured on Blackpink's Rose track 'APT', which has been in the country's top ten songs for some time now.
Most recently, Mars – whose real name is Peter Gene Hernandez – has released his NSFW song 'Fat Juicy & Wet' with Sexyy Red, and it's safe to say that the song is the 'WAP' of 2025.
I'll let you Google the lyrics to that one in your own time...

In light of the singer releasing a series of hits of late, Mars has achieved a huge milestone on music streaming service Spotify.
It announced yesterday that on January 27, Mars officially became the first artist to reach 150 million monthly listeners in Spotify history - quite the accolade!
Resharing the post to his Instagram Story, Mars penned: "KEEP STREAMING! I'll be out of debt in no time."
But his sentiments are very likely to have been tongue-in-cheek in light of MGM denying that Mars is in debt with the entertainment company.

Speaking last year, an MGM spokesperson told UNILAD: "We’re proud of our relationship with Bruno Mars, one of the world’s most thrilling and dynamic performers.
"From his shows at Dolby Live at Park MGM to the new Pinky Ring lounge at Bellagio, Bruno’s brand of entertainment attracts visitors from around the globe.
"MGM and Bruno’s partnership is longstanding and rooted in mutual respect.

"Any speculation otherwise is completely false; he has no debt with MGM. Together, we are excited to continue creating unforgettable experiences for our guests."
It's not the first time Mars has joked about the alleged debt, either. Following the success of 'Die with a Smile' last year, he also shared a reel on Instagram that joked (via BuzzFeed): "Lady Gaga on her way to get Bruno Mars out of debt."
Almost a decade ago it was revealed that Mars has signed a long-term agreement with MGM Resorts 'that will see him performing at multiple MGM venues, including Park Theater At Monte Carlo in Las Vegas and The Theater at MGM National Harbor in Maryland', said Next Level Agency at the time.

It was recently announced that the singer will be performing seven shows at Dolby Live at Park MGM in Las Vegas later this year.
The dates will run form May 21-31, as well as June 2. Pre-sale tickets go live today (January 29), with general release tickets going live on Friday.
