Peter Jean Hernandez

Bruno Mars is an American singer, songwriter and music producer, Grammy winner, who gained popularity after participating in the recording of tracks by rappers BoB (composition "Nothin 'on You") and Travis McCoy (composition "Billionaire").

Peter Jean Hernandez (real name of the artist) was born under the zodiac sign of Libra on October 8, 1985 in Honolulu, the capital city of Hawaii, located on the island of Oahu. Among the ancestors of the boy are representatives of three nationalities: Puerto Ricans, Filipinos and Jews. It is known that the vocalist has sisters Jamie, Tiara, Tahiti and Hernandez, as well as a half-brother, Eric. As the girls grew up, they created their own musical group, Lylas, and even launched a reality show. The girls took their first steps in show business in Hawaii.

It is known that Bruno's father Peter, a member of a local rock group, who from a young age was present at all the vocalist's performances, was involved in the musical education of Bruno. At one concert, Mars performed with the head of the family. After they sang the song in a duet, the singer asked the audience on the show to separately applaud Peter, who taught him everything he knew himself.

All that is known about the artist's mother is that her name was Bernadette and she also had a musical education. Unfortunately, in 2013 the woman died, and later at the 2014 Super Bowl, the musician dedicated a drum performance to her. Despite the fact that the artist's parents divorced when he was very young, they managed to maintain friendly relations.

Mars grew up as an active child. At two years old, the singer received the nickname Bruno (in honor of the then popular wrestler Bruno Sammartino, who had a round face). From an early age, Mars was fond of the works of Michael Jackson, Elvis Presley and The Isley Brothers and The Temptations. At the age of seven, the boy played a rock and roll legend in the film Honeymoon in Las Vegas. Peter got used to the role so much that for a long time the young musician's repertoire included Presley's hits, with which he gave concerts in Hawaii.

Bruno often appears at events wearing hats similar to those worn by Frank Sinatra. According to the singer, this is due to the fact that in childhood he had a whole shock of curls on his head, and when they were trimmed, he felt uncomfortable. The hats saved him from this feeling.

In 2003, Mars moved to Los Angeles to start making music. In the same year, he came up with his pseudonym. In 2006, Bruno signed a contract with Atlantic Records. At first, the artist was engaged in writing songs for other performers and producing.

In September 2010, the famous singer was arrested in Las Vegas for possession of cocaine. In a conversation with the police, he argued that the illegal substances did not belong to him and that he had never used drugs before. The court hearing took place in February 2011. Then Mars could get a term of 4 years and a fine of $ 50 thousand for possession of two and a half grams of cocaine.

As a result, Bruno was sentenced to 200 hours of community service and a fine of $ 2 thousand. The court also ordered the star to attend classes on the harm of drugs for a couple of months.

Prior to becoming a successful solo artist, Bruno wrote songs to Alexandra Burke, Travie McCoy, Adam Levine, Sean Kingston, Flow Rida and the Sugababes.

His first appearance as a music artist was on the Far East Movement's Animal album. Popularity came after BoB's "Nothin 'on You" and Travie McCoy's "Billionaire", in which Mars was both a performer and a co-writer.

On May 11, 2010, the artist released the EP It's Better If You Don't Understand, which took 99th place on the Billboard 200. In August 2010, he co-wrote the Cee Lo Green's single “Fuck You!”, And on September 12 at the MTV Video Music Awards 2010 "performed on stage with BoB and Hayley Williams.

The singer's debut album, Doo-Wops & Hooligans, was released in October 2010. The first single was the song "Just the Way You Are", released on July 19, 2010 and topping the Billboard Hot 100 for a couple of weeks. The next two singles were the musical pieces "Liquor Store Blues" and "Grenade". Since October of the same year, the vocalist has acted as the opening act for the Maroon 5 tour in support of their Hands All Over album.

The second studio album "Unorthodox Jukebox" was released in December 2012. The album "Unorthodox Jukebox" contained pop and R&B compositions, and also included musical styles of rock, soul and reggae. In the United States, the album debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 with a circulation of 192,000 in its first week of release.

In November 2014, the artist released the single "Uptown funk", sung by a duet with Mark Ronson, shot a video for the song, and after the end of the "Moonshine Jungle Tour" concert tour, announced that he had started work on the third album.

As a result, the disc with new hits “24K Magic” was released in November 2016 and received positive reviews from listeners and online publications “Irish Times”, “AllMusic”, “Slant Magazine”, “Entertainment Weekly”, “Cleveland.com” and USA Today.

Throughout the album, you can feel the influence of the childhood heroes of Mars: "New Edition", "Boyz II Men" and many other legendary artists of the golden era of the R&B genre, who inspired the singer when creating the CD.

In "24K Magic," Bruno clearly defends his point of view, stating the need to remember the old school, and instead of filling the record with collaborations with amazing artists of the era, the performer convinces the kids of the 80s to stay forever young. According to music critics, "24K Magic" breathed new life into vintage R&B, which played in a new way in 2016.

In March 2017, the video for the single "That's What I Like" premiered, and in August a video for the song "Versace On The Floor" was released. Soon, the singer rushed through the cities with a concert program in support of the album "24K Magic". It is known that in October, the eminent artist visited Orlando, Philadelphia, Raleigh, Miami and Tampa with performances.

Bruno never spoke about his relationship with the representatives of the weak half of humanity. Despite the musician's efforts not to make his personal life public, nosy journalists always managed to find out the most piquant and scandalous details about the artist's communication with women outside the stage.

So, in 2006, the paparazzi filmed the singer in the company of a professional dancer and actress Chanel Malvar. True, this relationship, which lasted 4 years, did not end with Mendelssohn's march. Media representatives were unable to find out the reason why this couple ceased to exist.

In 2009, Mars was seen vacationing on a yacht in the company of the Russian model Yulia Lukashkina. Later, the artist said that he had exclusively friendly relations with the model.

In 2011, after Bruno Mars performed two versions of the song "Grenade", in one of which the singer addresses a girl, and in the other - to a young man, some pop music fans started talking about the musician's gay orientation. But it turned out that in this way the artist showed his sense of humor, and also increased the sales of the disc.

In 2011, Cupid's arrow again hit the heart of the performer of the song "Grenada", and the handsome man at first sight fell in love with Rita Ora, an artist who, as fans believed, would become the vocalist's wife. Despite the long family life predicted by him, the couple broke up. Between them there was work, from which none of the lovers was going to refuse.

At the end of the same year, the press managed to capture Bruno with a new girlfriend, actress and model Jessica Caben. Now lovers no longer hide their relationship. So, Kaben in his "Instagram" often uploads them with Bruno joint photos.

Bruno Mars is 165 cm tall and weighs 67 kg, for which the singer even received the "Smallest Star" award at the MTV Movie Awards in 2009. But the artist is not going to worry about this. It seems that Bruno even enjoys appearing at special events surrounded by tall models.

Bruno Mars does not stand aside from the fashion for body decoration with tattoos. There are several tattoos on his hands. This is an image of a heart with the name of the mother, an inscription dedicated to the father, and an anchor in honor of the sailor grandfather. As a mascot, the singer created a tattoo in the form of a portrait of a fortune-teller.

Mars does not forget its homeland and regularly participates in charity events aimed at various times to help Hawaiians affected by the disaster.

Despite the busy work schedule, the performer of the song "Just the way you are" does not forget about the subscribers. On Instagram, Bruno regularly uploads photos from performances and recreation. Among other things, on the vocalist's official website, anyone can order products with the print of the "24K Magic" tour, as well as familiarize themselves with the schedule of upcoming concerts.

It is also worth noting that social networks are not the only resource that tells fans about the latest news from the life of Mars. On all kinds of Internet portals and in print publications, materials related to the creative biography of the Hollywood star are also often published.

Now Bruno Mars is at the peak of his musical biography. He continues to successfully mix the traditions and characteristics of music from different styles and eras. Together with hip-hop singer Cardi B, Bruno Mars recorded a remix of the hit "Finesse", which sent listeners to the distant 90s. The video for the song has collected almost half a billion views in just six months. Bruno posted the video on his personal YouTube channel, which he opened back in 2006.

The work of Bruno Mars is regularly awarded significant prizes. 2017 brought the artist the American Music Awards in the "Artist of the Year" category. Bruno beat his peers Ed Sheeran, Drake and Kendrick Lamar, the DJ duo The Chainsmokers.

In early 2018, Mars was awarded three Grammy awards for Best Song of the Year, Best R&B Song and Best R&B Performance. The song that became the reason for the singer's popularity among music critics was the musical composition "That's What I Like". On the Internet, the number of views of the video for a single reaches 1.3 billion. Also, the disc “24K Magic” was awarded two prizes.
