Singapore Bruno Mars fans, brace yourselves – your favourite singer might not be aware that our country separated from Malaysia in 1965.

According to the Bruno Mars 24K Magic World tour website managed by Atlantic Records, Singapore is part of Malaysia.

While the website got the city and country locations for the rest of the concerts in Asia correct, it flubbed with Singapore.

The location for the pop superstar’s concerts in the republic on 6 and 7 May 2018 is given as “Singapore, Malaysia”.

The Grammy award-winning singer will be performing at the Singapore Indoor Stadium next month.

The 22,000 tickets for both of Mars’ shows in Singapore sold out within 3½ hours of ticket sales opening to the public on 19 October last year.

The 32-year-old pop star was originally slated to perform only for one night but organiser Live Nation Lushington added a second show less than an hour after sales began due to overwhelming response.

Mars last performed in Singapore in 2014.
