MGM Resorts International has responded to reports that singer Bruno Mars is more than $50 million in debt with their casinos.
Reports circulated online claiming the casino “owned” the singer because he has so much debt with their establishment. Fans questioned how the casino let him accrue that much debt in the first place.
“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,” the company wrote in a statement to Complex.
The statement continued: “Any speculation otherwise is completely false; he has no debt with MGM. Together, we are excited to continue creating unforgettable experiences for our guests.”
Bruno Mars was given a residency at Park MGM since 2016, which was extended through 2024. It has already generated more than $53 million, making it the highest-grossing MGM concert residency ever, but rumors are that Mars cannot walk away until his debt has been repaid in full.
