The hospitality giant stood by their partnership with the singer in a statement on Monday.
Bruno Mars isn’t in the red with MGM, that is, according to the hospitality and casino giant.
In a statement given to the Las Vegas Review-Journal on Monday, MGM Resorts shut down rumors the “24K Magic” singer had racked up a $50 million gambling debt, and that he was paying his balance via multiple business deals with MGM and its Las Vegas properties.
The company said claims that it has Mars on the hook for millions were “completely false,” writing, “We’re proud of our relationship with Bruno Mars, one of the world’s most thrilling and dynamic performers.”
Celebrating his residency at the Park MGM and partnership on the Bellagio’s new Pinky Ring cocktail lounge, MGM’s statement read, “Bruno’s brand of entertainment attracts visitors from around the globe. MGM and Bruno’s partnership is longstanding and rooted in mutual respect.”
“Any speculation otherwise is completely false,” it went on. “He has no debt with MGM. Together, we are excited to continue creating unforgettable experiences for our guests.”
