This is not true. Additionally, when finding information on social media you must fact-check from a credible source. When doing some research I found that Bruno Mars is not in debt to MGM.

It's not the most reliable to get information from social media like tiktok. So I followed the source on the tiktok video, which brought me to newsnationsnow.com. The company's website seems to be reliable, but their evidence is questionable. The source came from an un-named well placed Vegas insider, which doesn't give much to the reliability of the evidence. The article doesn't include sources below. Other sources, like forbes, has reliable sources on MGM denying the debt accusations.
