Bruno Mars

This Hawaii native's rise to pop superstardom has been extremely rapid, and refreshingly enough, that ascent has been largely due to genuine - albeit a little cheesy - talent. Bruno Mars will be bringing his charms and silky-smooth voice to Chiba's Makuhari Messe for two gigs in April, but not before he takes the stage at New Jersey's MetLife Stadium for the Super Bowl halftime show in February - the ultimate confirmation that this 'Lazy Song' dude is now playing in the big leagues. Tickets go on sale January 25 (from 10am) at Eplus, Ticket Pia, and Lawson stores.
