Bruno Mars on his bust for cocaine possession in Vegas in 2010:

“I’m not gonna preach that I’m a role model. I’m a f**king musician! But I’ve learned people are watching, so don’t do nothing stupid.”

Bruno’s recommendations for wearing and werking your fedora:

Top Off Your Tee
That same gray hat works when you’re going casual, too. It’ll make a V-neck tee look like a style statement.

Draw a Straw
Felt fedoras are for fall and winter. When it’s hotter than hell, go lightweight in straw.

Find Your Rhythm
Think of the ribbon on your hat as a shot of color. Your clothes should play off it, not match perfectly.
