Today, Billboard has an exclusive premiere of the Rio 2 soundtrack. Check out their write-up via the link above and listen to Bruno Mars' "Welcome Back" and Philip Lawrence's "It's A Jungle Out Here."

According to iHeartRadio New Zealand, Bruno Mars broke the record for House Attendance for a concert in "End Stage Mode" during the Australia/New Zealand leg of the Moonshine Jungle Tour during his concert at Vector Arena on March 16th.
During his run as the opening act for the Austrailia/New Zealand leg of the Moonshine Jungle Tour, Miguel shared a photo of himself, Bruno Mars, and part of his crew, Drew. Captioned "keep rockin primo @brunomars," check out the photo below.
Following one of their performances at The Chelsea, the Hooligans shared photos of custom designed jackets that rep the cities they're from. Bruno recently shared his via twitter. Check out the collection below.
After his February 16th show during his mini residency at The Chelsea, Bruno Mars attended an after-party at Marquee in Las Vegas.
He seemingly jumped on the 1s and 2s for a quick second to hype the crowd. Perhaps this brings back flashbacks of his job as a mall DJ?
This isn't Bruno's first romp at Marquee. Check out the promo for his concert pre-party back in 2011.
Since he's performing at half-time, it's only befitting to hear one of Bruno Mars' songs during a commercial break. Car maker Hyundai's super bowl ad for their 2015 Genesis will air during the first quarter of the Super Bowl. The ad will feature Bruno's song "Count On Me." So look out for the ad while you're watching the game.
During their "Get Hyped For Halftime" campaign, Pepsi shared a video of The Bottle Boys from Copenhagen Denmark covering Bruno Mars' "Young Girls." Check it out and get hyped for the Super Bowl halftime!
Yesterday, Bruno Mars announced the dates for the 2nd leg of his Moonshine Jungle World Tour. The journey continues throughout North America during summer of 2014 after two shows in his hometown of Hawaii. Be sure to check out www.brunomars.com/moonshinejungletour for venues and dates. Pharrell Williams and Aloe Blacc are the openers on select dates. Tickets are scheduled to go on sale February 3rd, after his Super Bowl performance.
So it's official, and the rumors are true. Red Hot Chili Peppers will be joining Bruno Mars on the Super Bowl Half Time Show stage.
In my previous post, I mentioned an ad that would start airing to promote Bruno's super bowl half time show.
Today, Bruno shared the ad via twitter. Check it out below if you missed it.
After seeing Bruno countdown New Year's Eve at The Chelsea, I'm certainly pumped for his half time performance. And you can be too, this Saturday according to the Washington Post.
Apparently, Pepsi will start airing an ad to promote Bruno's half time show on Saturday during the NFL playoffs. So get hyped and prepare to be blown away come February 2nd.
While in Las Vegas, preparing to open his shows at The Chelsea, Bruno Mars was spotted attending a UFC match back on December 28th that pitted UFC fighters Chris Weidman and Anderson Silva against each other.
During the fight, Anderson Silva's leg was broken. The next day, Bruno tweeted a get well wish to the fighter, saying "Wishing Anderson Silva a speedy recovery."
Today, Anderson responded to Bruno's tweet, saying "Thanks man I will."
Newly solo singer Brit Smith (formerly known as Matisse) is rumored to have been putting in work in the studio with Bruno Mars, among other notable producers. She currently has a track out now that was produced by Timbaland, and her debut album is scheduled for release in 2014. Perhaps a Bruno assisted track could be on it? To early to tell so we'll just have to wait and see! In the mean time, check out a cover she did of Bruno's "When I Was Your Man."
Photographer Kai Z Feng shared a great photo of Bruno Mars via instagram yesterday December 6th 2013. "Working with the talented Bruno Mars again! @brunomars" he captioned the photo.
Kai worked with Bruno on several of the shots seen in the current Super Bowl photos as well as shots used in the Moonshine Jungle Tour promo, and his February 2013 InStyle magazine feature. Check out a few of his other shots that he shared via instagram.
Last night, Bruno Mars was spotted in Las Vegas attending the Jersey Boys show. He snapped a pic with triple threat (actor/singer/dancer) Noah Rivera, who plays in the show. "Bruno came to the show last night! So cool. So chill. So talented. He's #Awesome. I wish you could've been there. #BrunoMars" Noah tweeted/instagramed.
Bruno also snapped a pic with the rest of the cast below.
A little late, but better late than never. Check out this cool video from Pepsi, showing NFL players getting hyped for Bruno Mars' Super Bowl Halftime by dancing to his song "Treasure."
Today, Bruno Mars surprised his fans via Twitter with a remix of his song "Gorilla." The "Gorilla G-Mix" features R&B singer R. Kelly and producer/artist Pharrell Williams.
How very befitting since Bruno is known to cover R.Kelly songs in some of his performances. Particularly "Bump N' Grind." Remember his 2012 New Year's Eve performance when he sang R. Kelly's vocal runs perfectly? And Pharrell seems to be a fan of Bruno's music, tweeting during his 2013 Grammy performance, and his 2013 VMA win. As Macklemore and Ryan Lewis say, "this is freaking awsome..."
