Bruno Mars Brings His Star-Making Hits Back To The Charts
Bruno Mars's "Uptown Funk" and "Just the Way You Are" return to Billboard's global charts, joining ... More his current smashes "Die With a Smile" and "Apt." LAS VEGAS, NEVADA - APRIL 03: (L-R) Bruno Mars of Silk Sonic accepts Song Of The Year for 'Leave The Door Open' onstage during the 64th Annual GRAMMY Awards at MGM Grand Garden Arena on April 03, 2022 in Las Vegas, Nevada. (Photo byfor The Recording Academy) Bruno Mars has been a global superstar for nearly two decades, and while many pop stars see their careers fade by this point – long before this point, actually – the singer-songwriter and producer is still just as hot as ever. In late 2024, he landed two of the biggest hits of his career, with "Die With a Smile" with Lady Gaga and "Apt." with Rosé. As those tunes approach their one-year anniversary on the charts, they have hardly faded. At the same time that those cuts are riding high, several of the tracks that made Mars a household name return to worldwide rankings. A pair of Mars's most famous smashes reappear on Billboard's global lists this week. Both compositions find their way back to just one roster apiece, and they do so on different tallies. "Uptown Funk," his collaboration with Mark Ronson, returns to the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. at No. 190. The tally ranks the most consumed tunes throughout the world, blending sales and streaming data, with all U.S.-based listening excluded. Over on the Billboard Global 200 — which does include U.S. plays and purchases — "Just the Way You Are" returns at No. 192. It has no need to break back onto the Billboard Global Excl. U.S., where this time around it slips just two spots to No. 179. The two worldwide favorites have experienced different journeys on the rankings they appear on. "Just the Way You Are" is the higher-peaking of the two, having previously climbed to No. 69 on the Billboard Global 200, and No. 58 on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. Meanwhile, "Uptown Funk" has only reached as high as No. 116 on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S., and it's not even present on the all-encompassing roster. However, on that latter tally, "Uptown Funk" does best "Just the Way You Are," which only peaked at No. 177. That said, "Just the Way You Are" has spent more time on the Billboard Global 200 than "Uptown Funk" has on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. — more than twice as many weeks — as it seems that American consumption of Mars's breakout solo smash continues to prove incredibly important to the cut. Mars currently fills four spaces on both global rankings. "Die With a Smile" is still present at No. 2 after spending months at the summit and scoring 41 weeks on the lists. "Apt." also holds steady in third place. That tune traded spots with "Die With a Smile" for months at a time, and the two rank among the most successful cuts ever on these charts.

At YouTube Brandcast, Lady Gaga, ‘Hot Ones' & NFL Help Video Giant Mark 20 Creator-Shaped Years
At YouTube Brandcast on Wednesday night, the finale of a three-day blitz of upfront presentations in New York, Lady Gaga achieved the rarest of things: a standing ovation and screams of enthusiasm from a crowd of advertisers. The pop star's scorching 20-minute set closed things on a high note and received the opposite of the usually jaded reactions, but the event had already been a substantive one before she stepped onstage. The 20th anniversary of YouTube earlier this year served as the framework for the presentation, with appearances and remarks reflecting the milestone. More from Deadline Charlize Theron Appears At Netflix Upfront Following Injury On Set Of 'Apex': "My Cute Boot Is Hiding A Fractured Toe" YouTube Will Stream Kansas City Chiefs-L.A. Chargers NFL Game For Free From Brazil This September - Update Netflix Releases NFL Christmas Gameday Schedule With Cowboys Vs. Commanders & Lions Vs. Vikings 'In just two decades, YouTube has reshaped how we watch entertainment,' CEO Neil Mohan said. Live events, from concerts to sports to many other kinds, have come to be one of YouTube's foundational elements as technology improvements have enabled more seamless livestreams. 'We want to bring more of these moments to fans everywhere,' Mohan said. One example in September will be an NFL game in Brazil, streamed on YouTube in full for the first time. NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell took the stage at the Lincoln Center presentation and joined Chief Business Officer Mary Ellen Coe to mark the step-up in the relationship between the league and the video giant. The expanded deal encompasses a flag football game during Super Bowl week, which last year drew 6 million viewers. Coe also announced a new initiative to give ad buyers a chance to get in on key cultural moments. Brands can collaborate with YouTube creators and properties like this month's PGA Championship (or award shows like the Oscars and Emmys, plus a number of other events) to create custom ads. Befitting the night's themes, MrBeast (aka Jimmy Donaldson) made an appearance. With 394 million followers, he has long been the standard-bearer for the creator community. 'People ask me if I'm going Hollywood. Why?' he said. 'The future of entertainment is not in Hollywood. It's happening right here, right now, on YouTube.' Popular YouTuber Brittany Broski (aka Brittany Tomlinson) interviewed another longtime creator, Sean Evans, who hosts interview series Hot Ones. Evans recently participated in an $82.5 million deal to buy the property from BuzzFeed, giving him an ownership stake in the chat show. 'Ownership, equity, and having a stake in the game is like a natural state for a creative person,' he said. 'We are far past the days when a production company or studio is bigger than the person creating the content.' Asked about the enduring appeal of his 10-year-old show, Evans said, 'It pierces the façade of celebrity. … We knock them off the pedestal and take it down to a relatable level.'
