Bruno Mars performs ‘APT.’ live with BLACKPINK’s Rosé

Bruno Mars and BLACKPINK’s Rose turned up the stage with their performance together at this year’s Mnet Asian Music Awards (MAMA).

The Filipino-American Grammy-winning singer and K-pop superstar performed their megahit “APT,” for the first time on Day 2 of the annual music awards ceremony.

The two also shared an adorable moment when Rosé urged Bruno to speak in Korean in their acceptance speech when they won the “Global Sensation Award.” 

“APT,” is Bruno and Rosé’s catchy collaboration track which has now amassed nearly 400 million views on Youtube and Spotify since its release on October 18. 

The song, inspired from a South Korean drinking game, has spent four weeks on Billboard’s Global Charts.

The two-day awards ceremony, hosted by K-drama stars Park Bo-gum and Kim Tae-ri, kicked off in Los Angeles on November 21 (November 22 KST) and resumes at the Kyocera Dome in Osaka, Japan November 22 and 23.
