Rosé is super cool, saves a superstar from 1,300 debt, shocking reason behind it

Recently, BLACKPINK performed the second night of the World Tour DEADLINE in LA, USA. BLACKPINK's main vocalist caused a global storm when she successfully invited Bruno "oppa" to be a guest, stirring up the crowd with the billion-view hit APT ..

On social networks, Rosé and Bruno Mars also quickly updated performance videos and photos together, attracting millions of likes.

In his post, Bruno Mars also jokingly said that he was "almost" out of debt after a surprise performance with Rosé at the DEADLINE World Tour : "Almost out of debt BehhhhhBehhhhh, thank you ROSAAAAYYYYYY".

Bruno's humor made people laugh out loud. This is also the rare time Bruno Mars himself mentioned the gambling debt. Although it was just a joke, the fact that Bruno Mars did not deny the $50 million debt gives fans more reason to believe that the male singer is really in debt to release music.

Bruno Mars' fandom sent their thanks to Rosé on Twitter, because she did something "unthinkable". BLACKPINK's concert was the first concert that Bruno Mars was a guest artist in 8 years. Fans also joked that Rosé's superpower was "pulling" Bruno out of the flashy casinos in Las Vegas .

Revisiting Bruno Mars' debt story, music fans always find it interesting. In early 2024, Bruno Mars was reported by Newsnation to owe the MGM casino in Las Vegas up to 50 million USD (about 1,300 billion VND). Newsnation also said that Bruno Mars signed a 9-year contract to perform at the MGM casino and resort to pay off the debt. This information made the public "half-believing, half-doubting", without any confirmation but soon became a topic associated with Bruno Mars every time he appeared.

And coincidentally, after the debt rumors spread, Bruno Mars became more productive. Not only did he tour the world, the king of funk also diligently went on a "feat tour". Every collaboration of "the Martian" shocked the music industry. The first was Die With A Smile , featuring Lady Gaga .

The poignant love song quickly broke a series of music records, continuously ranking #1 on Spotify Worldwide, climbing to the top of the Billboard Hot 100. Die With A Smile set an unprecedented new milestone on Spotify, reaching 1 billion streams in the fastest time in the platform's history (96 days). This collaboration brought a Grammy for Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars.

In October 2024, Bruno sang in the super hit APT. by Rosé (BLACKPINK). APT. became a global hit in a flash, bringing the Perfect All-Kill record in Korea, taking turns occupying #1 on Spotify, Apple Music and YouTube Music Worldwide. APT. also helped Rosé debut at #8 on Billboard Hot 100. The MV has now garnered 1.8 billion views - an unprecedented record for a Kpop solo star.

However, at the time of its release, there were criticisms of Rosé and that "APT." was a song of "too low quality for a talented artist like Bruno Mars". However, this opinion was refuted.

On Radio Z100 New York, Rosé revealed that "APT." was not the song she chose alone for her collaboration with Bruno Mars.

Rosé said that during a few meetings with Atlantis Records, she accidentally learned that Bruno Mars had also signed a contract with this record label. Rosé happily shared with the record label staff that she was a "big fan" of Bruno Mars. The female idol first suggested to Atlantis Records: "Do you think he would like to collaborate with me?".

Then Bruno asked Rosé to send him 3 songs. At that time, she still thought that the collaboration would be 99% impossible because Bruno Mars was a world-famous star. But she thought that just having Bruno listen to 3 of her songs was a big win.

Surprisingly, when the two met again, Bruno asked Rosé: "What does APT. mean?". She explained: "It's a Korean drinking game". Rosé was shocked when it was the song Bruno Mars wanted to collaborate with her.

The Pann Nate post emphasized that "APT." is Bruno Mars' favorite song and was personally chosen from the three songs Rosé sent. Some viewers agreed and commented, "Bruno has won many Billboard awards, do you really think he would pick a bad song? You can't ignore his instincts."

In an interview with Vogue, Rosé said that she initially wanted to delete the recording of "APT." because she was worried that it was a song about a drinking game. But when she contacted her staff to delete the song, they all said they were addicted to it, so "APT." was kept. Now, "APT." has helped Rosé set countless records.
