Bruno Mars' third single "The Lazy Song" from his debut album "Doo-Wops & Hooligans" has reached no. 1 in the U.K. This chart position marks Mars' third consecutive single to reach #1 in the U.K., preceded by "Grenade" and "Just The Way You Are."
In other news, Mars will donate proceeds from his upcoming performance at Alabama's Jubilee CityFest celebration "Bama's Big Bang" to the Alabama Tornado Disaster Relief Fund via the American Red Cross.
