Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars share the BTS story
Gaga began by highlighting that the two artists have immense respect for each other and were discussing a collaboration. She said, “I was finishing up my own album in Malibu, and one night after a long day he asked me to come to his studio to hear something he was working on. It was around midnight when I got there, and I was blown away when I heard what he had started making,” as reported by Page Six.
She revealed that they both then stayed up the entire night to finish writing and recording their recent release. She also praised her collaborator as she mentioned, “Bruno’s talent is beyond explanation. His musicianship and vision are next level. There’s no one like him.”
Mars, on the other hand, said it was an honour to work beside the Poker Face singer on a song. He said, “She’s an icon, and she makes this song magical. I’m so excited for everyone to hear it.”

Future endeavours
The two artists performed their instant timeless ballad for the first time on Thursday, August 15 at the new Intuit Dome in Inglewood, California. While the duo performed together for the first time, it was not their first time together on stage as they appeared at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show in 2016.
This year is about to get busier for Gaga with her eighth solo labrum on the way and her film Joker: Folie à Deux hits theatre on October 4. Mars has not released any album since his 24K Magic in 2016 and has been on a world tour since then.
