Bruno Mars on '$50 Million Casino Gambling Debt': 'I'll Be Out of Debt in No Time'

Bruno Mars took time once again to bring up his rumored gambling debt.

The Grammy award winning artist insists it's not a true story.

Mars joked while celebrating his success on Spotify.

'KEEP STREAMING,' the Honolulu, Hawaii-born performer, whose full name is Peter Gene Hernandez, wrote on the post, which was accompanied by a dancing emoji. 'I’ll be out of debt in no time.'

Mars, real name Peter Gene Hernandez, spoke about his impressive streaming totals Tuesday as he inked an extension with MGM to play seven additional shows in his residency later this year in Las Vegas, Billboard reported.

Talks of Mars having a massive debt came in a March 14, 2024 News Nation story titled 'Bruno Mars needs to lay off the slots: Source,' which alleged details of his financial issues with MGM Resorts International.

Last spring, MGM shot down the rumors of such a gambling debt.  The circulating story prompted the casino company to issue a statement.

“MGM and Bruno’s partnership is longstanding and rooted in mutual respect. Any speculation otherwise is completely false; he has no debt with MGM,” the statement continued. “Together, we are excited to continue creating unforgettable experiences for our guests.”
