Learn How The Four Body Types Determines A Celebrity Body Type Like Bruno Mars
Celebrity Bruno Mars sporting his genetic scientific Body Type Two (BT2) shape physique/figure while on holiday with friends and family including his girlfriend Jessica Caban. The fully developed vertebrae (posture) and muscles/muscle mass are debatable. He is showing some signs of skinny fat (cellulite, thin fat, loose skin, saggy skin, crepey skin, normal weight obesity) on his mid-to-lower back and stomach, no less, indicating a few underdeveloped lumbar vertebrae or several along with likely a thoracic vertebra or two, at least.
One pound of muscle burns six calories per day, but one pound of skinny fat/fat only burns two to three calories. Which directly affects metabolism (the more skinny fat and fat, the slower the metabolism). The mostly developed posture, muscles, and muscle mass across the majority of his BT2 is an advantage that Body Type Three (BT3) and Body Type Four (BT4) human bodies (male or female) generally lack.
Diet, exercise, lifestyle, metabolism, and BMI matter. But so do genes/genetics/DNA. As he continues to age, it will be interesting to see how well Bruno Mars successfully maintains his body shape physique/figure. Is he really a Standard Body Type One (BT1)?
Bruno Mars Physique/Figure – BT2
Superstar Grammy Award-winning singer and songwriting musician Bruno Mars displays his Body Type Two shape/figure/physique while taking time off. Born in Honolulu, Hawaii, at two years old he was nicknamed “Bruno” by his father due to his resemblance to professional wrestler Bruno Sammartino. As one of six children, his musically-inclined family — including his dancing and singing mother and singing father — exposed him to diverse music genres. Rock and roll being the foremost along with reggae, hip hop, rhythm and blues (R&B), pop, funk, soul, and disco, no less.
At the very young age of four, he began performing with his family’s band, The Love Notes. He became known in Hawaii for his Elvis Presley impersonation, eventually being featured in the Hawaiian tabloid shopper MidWeek as ‘Little Elvis’ while performing at the halftime show of the NCAA’s 1990 Aloha Bowl. His entertainment career technically began in 1992 when he appeared in the major motion picture movie Honeymoon in Vegas (cameo, only film appearance to date), was interviewed on MTV by Pauly Shore, and featured on The Arsenio Hall Show.

Subsequently, his sister introduced his demo tape to the head of A&R at Dr. Dre’s Aftermath Entertainment record label, Mike Lynn. At Lynn’s request, shortly after graduating from high school in 2003 at the age of 17, he moved to Los Angeles to pursue his musical career. His stage name was born, combining his childhood nickname and adding “Mars”, because, in his own words, “I felt like I didn’t have no pizzazz, and a lot of girls say I’m out of this world, so I was like I guess I’m from Mars.” The name was also a way to “avoid being stereotyped” (like, trying to convince him to sing in Spanish) and pigeonholed by the music industry as just another Latin artist.
He signed a record contract with Motown Records in 2004 but was dropped by the label less than a year later. Landing a publishing deal in 2005 with Westside Independent, he performed locally with the band Sex Panther while paying his dues. Struggling to get traction, he nearly gave up when, in 2008, he sold his song Lost for $20,000 to Menudo, allowing him to continue his work writing and producing songs. Before hitting it big as a successful solo artist, he had become an acknowledged songwriter and music producer (Adam Levine, Brandy, CeeLo Green, etc.).

Finally inking a deal with Atlantic Records, in 2010 he released the song Just the Way You Are as the lead single from his debut studio album Doo-Wops & Hooligans. The song topped the charts in Australia, Canada, and the U.S. and went twelve times Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) platinum while the album debuted at number three on the Billboard 200 and number one in the UK, Netherlands, and Canada. It sold 15.5 million copies worldwide to date and is certified seven times RIAA platinum.
To date, his three studio albums include Unorthodox Jukebox (2012) and 24K Magic (2016). He also recorded the 2021 collaborative album with Anderson .Paak as Silk Sonic called An Evening with Silk Sonic. His extensive accolades include 39 Grammy Award nominations and fifteen Grammy Award wins. This includes his first nomination for Best Male Pop Vocal Performance for Just The Way You Are and then 14 straight wins in a row starting with Best Pop Vocal Album for Unorthodox Jukebox and his latest being Best R&B Song for Leave the Door Open with Anderson .Paak.
He has sold over 130 million records worldwide making him one of the best-selling music artists ever. Eight songs have reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 while his concert tours are some of the highest-grossing in history. He holds three Guinness World Records. As well, he has graced Music Week (2011, best songwriters), Billboard‘s Greatest of All Time Artists (2019), Time 100, and Forbes Celebrity 100. Not to be outdone, he is the first artist to receive six RIAA Diamond-certified songs in the United States and is regarded as a pop icon.

In terms of commercials, he has worked for the brands Vogue, Bench, and Selvarey Rum.
As for philanthropy, he supports the Grammy Camp Scholarship Fund (Hawai’i Community Foundation and Grammy Foundation), Bantay Bata orphans, Robin Hood Foundation, Salvation Army Hawaiian & Pacific Islands Division, Honolulu Community College’s Music & Entertainment Learning Experience program, and Grammy Museum’s Campaign for Music Education, to name a few. Bruno Mars’ demanding live tour concerts and singing performances increase his metabolic rate which encourages the burning of more calories keeping any further excess regular fat weight at bay, helping maintain his physique. He has been romantically linked to Chanel Malvar (dancer), Rita Ora (singer), and Rocsi Diaz (TV host).
His net worth is estimated to be $140 million. You can catch him on social media including Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and TikTok.
