The 2024 MAMA Awards might be bringing us an unforgettable performance! Reports hint that BLACKPINK’s Rosé and Bruno Mars are set to hit the stage for a live duet of their smash single “APT.” This tea was first spilled on November 12, 2024, thanks to the South Korean media outlet Tenasia.
This could mark Bruno Mars’ first appearance at a Korean Award show. Similarly, this could be one of Rosé’s first appearances at the MAMA Awards, an event BLACKPINK members have skipped over the years. While neither artist has officially confirmed the performance, Tenasia’s report has been echoed by fans on social media, potentially making it an official appearance. However, nothing has been set in stone yet!
