A Fun and Heartwarming Onstage Moment

Their energetic and chemistry-filled performance captivated the audience. ROSÉ also shared several fun behind-the-scenes and onstage moments on her social media. Her caption, delivered with playful flair, read:

“Look at me and THIS HUNK-O-RAMAA.”

The moment went viral across social media, reinforcing Bruno’s image not only as a talented musician but also as someone with a great sense of humor.

The Debt Joke: Between Rumor and Reality

The joke referred to an old rumor claiming that Bruno had racked up $50 million in gambling debt at MGM Grand Las Vegas, where he signed a long-term residency deal in 2016. However, MGM officially denied the claim in March 2024.

“That speculation is entirely false. Bruno has no debt with MGM,” the company stated.

Bruno has since used the rumor as comedic material. After breaking the record as the first artist to reach 150 million monthly listeners on Spotify, he jokingly wrote, “I’ll be debt-free soon.”

“APT.” Performance Drives Fans Wild

Bruno and ROSÉ performed their hit track “APT.”, released last October. The song peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 and held the top spot on the Billboard Global 200 for 12 consecutive weeks.

This duet adds to Bruno’s growing list of high-profile collaborations this year, including his Grammy-winning track “Die With a Smile” with Lady Gaga and the viral hit “Fat Juicy & Wet” with rapper Sexyy Red.
