This is when Lady Gaga posted a picture of herself and Bruno Mars in retro outfits with the title of the song, Die With a Smile. As soon as the song and its music video were released, social media users were left exhilarated. One netizen also shared the video of the song and stated:
“Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars just secured that Grammy win.”

Bruno Mars and Lady Gaga have performed together previously at the 2016 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show
While Gaga and Bruno Mars left their fans and followers surprised by releasing Die With a Smile, this is not the first time that the two have performed together. Previously, in 2016, both artists performed alongside each other at the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show.
Mars has also confessed previously how he wishes to collaborate with the Bloody Mary singer. While speaking to Las Vegas Review in June 2024, Bruno said:
“Talking about Gaga — I’d love to do one with her. I’ve got to at least sing with her, on her show.”
The excitement of the song also escalated because this is Gaga’s first song that came in after four years, as she released her last album, Chromatica in 2020. Meanwhile, Mars’ last album, 24K Magic was released in 2016. The Uptown Funk singer has recently been touring in Brazil for his concert, Bruno Mars: Live in Brazil.
