BRUNO MARS

So, the BET Awards on Sunday night saw an absolutely unreal line up of stars take to the stage in order to celebrate talent from African Americans, and other minorities in the music industry.

Seriously, it was BIG.

Think performances from Big Sean, Kendrick Lamar, Gucci Mane and DJ Khaled, and celebrity faces such as Solange, Chance the Rapper and Mary J Blige…

But there was one super-famous artist who reaaally caused a stir on Twitter, and it wasn’t just because of his performance (which was also unreal btw).

Yep, after performing his song, ‘Perm’, the one and only Bruno Mars broke the internet, simply by doing one suuuuper relatable thing…

HE ONLY WENT AND DOZED OFF IN THE CROWD!!! Lol

Now, obvs, we can’t blame the 24K Magic singer, he’d just put on a hell of a performance after all! But you have to admit it’s pretty funny that he was caught in the act.

And of course, the internet did what it does best, and made hundreds of memes in honour of the occasion.

One user tweeted, “Bruno Mars, did Mary J Blige sing you to sleep?”, while another wrote, “LMAOO why is Bruno Mars going to sleep? I see you bro…”

Now we love a meme as much as the next person, and we have to admit these are preeetty hilarious, but come on guys… he was probably just blinking!!!

You can watch the BET Awards tonight at 9pm on the BET Channel (Sky 187 - Virgin 184 - Feeesat 140)
