Bruno Mars addressed recent financial rumors with humor during a surprise performance at BLACKPINK’s Los Angeles concert. The 39-year-old singer made an unexpected appearance on Sunday, July 13, joining BLACKPINK’s Rosé on stage to perform the track “APT.”
A day after the event, Bruno posted a video on Instagram showing himself running onto the stage, accompanied by a playful caption: “Almost out of debt BehhhhhBehhhhh!!! Preciate You ROSAAAAYYYYYY!!!!” The joke appeared to reference ongoing rumors about his alleged gambling debt.
Speculation about Bruno’s finances surfaced last year, with online reports claiming he had racked up significant gambling losses during his residency at MGM Resorts. However, MGM quickly denied those claims, stating there was no truth to the debt rumors.
Bruno has responded to the speculation in a lighthearted way, previously joking that his music success would help cover any alleged debts. His latest post continues that self-aware tone, blending humor with gratitude following the well-received performance.
Bruno’s cameo was a highlight of BLACKPINK’s ongoing world tour, which features a dynamic setlist of fan-favorite songs. The unexpected duet with Rosé energized the crowd and sparked excitement across social media.
To date, Bruno Mars has not formally addressed the gambling rumors beyond his jokes, and no verified evidence supports the claims. For now, fans seem to appreciate his ability to laugh off speculation while continuing to deliver unforgettable performances.
