Bruno Mars Jokes About Debt at BLACKPINK Show

Bruno Mars made a surprise appearance at BLACKPINK's Los Angeles concert, joining Rosé on stage to perform their hit song 'APT.' Mars later joked on social media about being 'almost out of debt,' referencing long-running rumors of a $50 million gambling debt owed to MGM Resorts. The debt rumors, which began in 2023 and were linked to his Las Vegas residency, have been consistently denied by MGM Resorts, who affirm there is no outstanding debt and describe their partnership as mutually respectful. Mars has addressed the speculation humorously, encouraging fans to stream his music as a playful way to 'pay off' the alleged debt. There is no verified evidence to support the debt claims. Mars' energetic cameo at the BLACKPINK concert was widely celebrated by fans.
