The latest pop star rumored to be desired -- not to mention ideal -- for a spot on the soon-to-be-revamped 'American Idol' judging panel is none other than Bruno Mars.

The 2013 Billboard Music Awards kicked off with a bang in the form of Bruno Mars. Mars and his Smeezington buddies were clad in red pants, red jackets and black shirts. He let his curls run free, not topping his outfit with his usual fedora. There were horns, guitars, drums and, of course, that voice!

While he's celebrating his fifth No. 1 single, crooner Bruno Mars' sisters are working to get their musical career off the ground and they are making a go of it on reality TV. The ladies have scored a show with WE Tv.

Bruno Mars is No. 1 again! It's getting to be old-hat, or old-fedora, in his case. The crooner notched his fifth No. 1 hit with the heartfelt ballad 'When I Was Your Man' -- you know, the one that he got all emotional performing on 'Ellen.'

Bruno Mars took the stage on 'Ellen' to perform 'When I Was Your Man' -- and the hostess with the mostess revealed that it's the only place he'd do so. What an honor!

If you had plans for May 19, do yourself a favor and cancel them immediately. Oh, you're getting married? Not anymore! Taylor Swift, Justin Bieber, Bruno Mars and Miguel will all perform at the 2013 Billboard Music Awards.

Bruno Mars and Terrence Howard have something in common.

I'm a huge Bruno Mars fan. I love his energy and racy retro style. Did you know as a child singer he got his start impersonating Elvis, Michael Jackson and Little Richard? It worked!   "When I Was Your Man" has some real notes of Michael Jackson...

Bruno Mars is going on tour! Okay, that's not such a huge surprise, since he's been hinting at a tour for weeks. He finally made the news official during a visit to 'Ellen,' where he revealed the title of the trek: The Moonshine Jungle World Tour.

Grammy collaborations don't always work, but when they do, they can be amazing. That was the case for the 2013 Grammys' powerful tribute to late reggae star Bob Marley, which featured Bruno Mars, Sting and Rihanna joined by two of Marley's sons.

Bruno Mars' video for the haunting ballad 'When I Was Your Man' is a simple, focused clip where the crooner plays the role of piano man, with a drink perched atop his instrument, a suit on his back and shades covering his eyes while he tickles the ivories. The emotion reverberates off the screen as he sings the lyrics of the song.

Bruno Mars is a man of style. He always looks fashionable, and that's why the 'Locked Out of Heaven' singer was selected as the Man of Style for the February issue of InStyle. Dressed in array of dark suits, button downs and hats, Mars is looking fine. But he also displayed a sense of humor so delightfully demented that your tummy will hurt from giggling at what he said in the feature.
