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.

Kanye West Postpones Show in France After Facing Potential Ban: ‘My Sole Decision’

Kanye West has announced that he is postponing his concert in Marseille, France, which was scheduled to take place on June 11 at the Vélodrome stadium. The rapper, who now goes by Ye, faces a potential ban in the country amid ongoing backlash over his past antisemitic outbursts.

“After much thought and consideration, it is my sole decision to postpone my show in Marseille, France until further notice,” wrote Ye on X Tuesday night.

Nine Inch Nails, Boys Noize Recorded Collab LP ‘in Studios, Hotels, Planes’ All Over

Nine Inch Nails‘ collaborations with Boys Noize began in 2024 when the German EDM producer remixed Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross’ Challengers soundtrack, and it blossomed last year when NIN made a short set of songs with Boys Noize a centerpiece of their Peel It Back tour. Now they’re releasing a unique, “purely electronic” full-length Nine Inch Noize album recorded “all over the place – some of it’s live, some in studios, hotels, planes, etc.,” according to Reznor, on Friday. The album is available to pre-save and preorder now.

“The creative fulfillment of working on the Challengers and Tron scores with Boys Noize led me to think that including him in the Peel It Back tour could be an interesting way to express NIN in more purely electronic terms live — a concept I’ve wanted to explore for some time,” Reznor said in a statement. “The result was so much fun for us we felt it was worth expanding and formalizing in some way.

Katy Perry Under Police Investigation Over Ruby Rose’s Sexual Assault Claims

Police in Australia are investigating claims that Katy Perry sexually assaulted actress Ruby Rose during a night out at a Melbourne nightclub in 2010, a police spokesperson confirmed to Rolling Stone.

“Melbourne Sexual Offences and Child Abuse Investigation Team (SOCIT) detectives are investigating a historical sexual assault that occurred in Melbourne in 2010,” a spokesperson for the Victoria Police said in a statement on Wednesday. “Police have been told the incident occurred at a licensed premises in Melbourne’s CBD. As the investigation remains ongoing, it would be inappropriate to comment further at this stage.”

Get Ready for Ticket Prices to Keep Rising

Get Ready for Ticket Prices to Keep Rising

Back in the Nineties, Pearl Jam famously sued Ticketmaster in an unsuccessful effort to rein in the runaway costs of attending a concert. These days, many are raising the same concerns — like Doc McGhee, Kiss’ longtime manager. In the late 1970s, when he was a young man on the rock scene, top concert tickets cost $10 to $11 (or about $50 to $55 in today’s dollars). Last year, according to Pollstar, the industry trade that monitors touring, the average ticket price had soared to around $132. That’s an increase of 38 percent just since 2019, when they cost a comparatively affordable $96.17. “It’s up to us,” McGhee says. “Until people say, ‘We’re not going,’ the prices are going up.”

This summer, that appears to be true. Entry to one of Harry Styles’ 30 dates at Madison Square Garden could cost you as much as $1,000; Alan Jackson’s sold-out touring finale at a Nashville stadium is prompting scalper prices of more than $5,000.

Madonna Confirms Her Return to the Dance Floor With ‘Confessions’ Sequel

On Tuesday, Madonna wiped her Instagram account, teased lyrics from the original album’s lead single “Hung Up,” and updated her website to have the phrase “Confessions II” flash across the screen.
