Our condolences to Bruno Mars and his family….there were recent reports that she had experienced a heart attack as well. From TMZ:
Bernadette Hernandez — mother of Bruno Mars — died unexpectedly Saturday at the age off 55.
Hernandez suffered a brain aneurysm. She passed away at the Queens Medical Center in Honolulu, Hawaii.
Hernandez was a hula dancer and singer who immigrated from the Philippines and nurtured Mars’ musical talents from a very young age.
Mars was set to kick off a tour in the U.S. later this month. No word on whether the death will affect the concert schedule.
