0 Music, fashion and rum. It could well be an advertising slogan, but these are the three markets in which Bruno Mars now operates. The one who is considered one of the kings of pop of the 21st century that after ten years continues to fill in each of his concerts has decided to broaden his gaze beyond the music industry and enter other businesses where he can exploit his unique personality and, above all, their freedom. If last November he surprised his followers with the launch of his own brand of high-end rum baptized SelvaRey and distilled in the jungles of Latin America, now it is his foray into fashion that has aroused the interest of many of his admirers. At 35 years old and under the alter ego by Ricky Regal this versatile artist has decided to launch himself into design at the hands of one of the most established firms on the current scene, Lacoste, with whom he has signed a collaboration inspired by the passion for life where the style and enigmatic personality of Bruno are combined Mars with the iconic Lacoste sportsmanship , according to the French brands statement. I am very fortunate to have received requests for collaborations in the past, but they always came with marked guidelines. Lacoste has been the first and only brand that has told me: Bruno, you can do whatever you want. The respect for such creative freedom coming from a long-established fashion house was an honor , says the musician in the same text.

Until his father found work at the Paradise Park bird zoo and they moved there. We didnt have a bathroom at first so we had to cross the park to find one in the middle of the night, Mars recalled wistfully on the same show. After finishing school, he decided to continue his musical career in Los Angeles where, after several rejections from the industry, he began to produce songs for other artists. It wasnt until 2010 that he released his debut album. Doo-Wops & Hooligans , with which he sold more than six million copies. He was nominated for seven Grammys at the 53rd edition of the awards (2011), taking home the award in the category Best Male Pop Vocal Performance for Just the way you Are .
