Bruno Mars Announces ‘The Romantic’ World Tour, His First Headlining Run in Nearly a Decade
John V. Esparza

We last saw Bruno Mars hit the road for a headlining run with his wildly successful 24K Magic tour, which kicked off in 2017. Now, the Grammy-winning singer is back with The Romantic tour, a global trek in support of his long-awaited fourth solo album of the same name.

Joining Mars across all dates is frequent Silk Sonic collaborator Anderson .Paak as DJ Pee .Wee, with additional performances by Victoria Monét, Raye, and Leon Thomas at select dates. The tour will span nearly 40 shows across North America, Europe, and the UK, and will kick off on April 10 in Las Vegas with stops at iconic venues including back-to-back shows at Rogers Stadium in Toronto, Wembley Stadium in London, MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, and SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles.


General onsale begins on Jan. 15 at 12 p.m. local time via BrunoMars.com. Fans can also sign up on the website by Jan. 12 at 10 a.m. PT for presale on Jan. 14 at 12 p.m. local time.

Mars confirmed The Romantic this week, just a couple days after revealing that he had completed the record, which is slated to arrive on Feb. 27 with the LP’s first single dropping on Jan. 9. The tour announcement follows chart-topping duets for Mars including smash hit “Die With a Smile” with Lady Gaga, which won a Grammy at the 2025 awards show, and the inescapable collab “APT” with Rosé that gained three Grammy nods at next month’s ceremony.

Björk calls for Greenland independance as Trump revives takeover threats

Björk shared a note of solidarity with the people of Greenland after Donald Trump and his admin revived threats of taking over the country following the capture of Venezuelan president Nicolas Maduro.

“I wish all Greenlanders blessing in their fight for independence,” Björk wrote on Instagram Monday (Jan. 5), adding: “Colonialism has repeatedly given me horror chills up my back, and the chance that my fellow Greenlanders might go from one cruel colonizer to another is too brutal to even imagine. ‘Úr öskunni í eldinn,’ like we say in Icelandic.” (That phrase translates to “From the ashes into the fire.”)

Petitions to deport Nicki Minaj gain over 120,000 signatures and counting

Several Change.org petitions to deport Nicki Minaj to her native Trinidad and Tobago have amassed more than 120,000 signatures combined. The most popular petition — garnering over 83,000 signatures — started on July 9, 2025, and lists Minaj’s “harrass[ment]” of “the Carters” as one of the inciting issues (Minaj had been incessantly lambasting Shawn “Jay-Z” Carter on X at the time). There are also at least three other petitions created between Dec. 21 and 28, 2025, that coincide with Minaj’s controversial Dec. 21 appearance alongside conservative activist Erika Kirk at Turning Point USA’s AmericaFest, where the rapper praised President Donald Trump’s administration.

One of the recent petitions began on Dec. 27 by a 16 year-old in Chicago named Tristan Hamilton, per the website, and has gained the most ground, with over 41,000 signatures at the time of writing. Using a photo of Minaj high-fiving Kirk as the petition’s lead image, Hamilton wrote that Minaj has left her LGBTQ fans “feeling deeply betrayed,” pointing to Minaj’s AmericaFest comments, “Boys, be boys…There’s nothing wrong with being a boy.” Some have seen Minaj’s appearance at the event as the rapper aligning with Turning Point’s historically anti-trans and queerphobic leadership. “Deporting Nicki Minaj back to Trinidad would serve as a reminder that public figures need to be accountable for their words and the broader impact they have on diverse communities,” wrote Hamilton. “It’s not just about one person’s fall from grace; it’s about holding everyone to a standard of compassion and consistency, especially when they possess significant influence.” Representatives for Hamilton and Nicki Minaj did not immediately respond to Rolling Stone’s requests for comment.

Drake, Adin Ross Used Online Casino Money for Artificial Streams, Lawsuit Claims

A new class-action lawsuit filed by two consumers in Virginia accuses music superstar Drake, streamer Adin Ross, and a third man based in Australia of luring users into real-money gambling on the casino platform Stake.us as part of a racketeering conspiracy that allegedly used proceeds to “artificially inflate streaming counts for Drake’s catalog.”

The lawsuit, filed in federal court in Virginia, claims the three men worked with Stake to “prey upon consumers,” unlawfully expose them to the “substantial risks of gambling addiction,” and jeopardize their financial well-being. The plaintiffs say they were “influenced to participate” in Stake’s “predatorial gambling environment” after viewing Drake’s paid promotion of the site, including live-streamed gambling sessions and giveaways.
