They got nothin’ on you, baby.

That’s what it feels like Bruno Mars is saying (and singing) to Las Vegas.

The global superstar could have chosen anywhere in the world to open a namesake bar and lounge, but he chose the Las Vegas Strip. The spot will be called The Pinky Ring by Bruno Mars, and it’s going into the space in Bellagio currently occupied by Lily Bar & Lounge, according to two food and beverage industry insiders familiar with the project but not authorized to speak about it publicly.

In the video for “24K Magic,” which is set in Vegas, Mars wears rings on both pinkies, and the song urges players to “put your pinky finger to the moon” in celebration.
