Move over, Paris Hilton: make room for Bruno Mars behind those bars! Singer Bruno Mars was arrested in Las Vegas for suspected cocaine possession over the weekend and now faces felony charges, just as Paris did.
Bruno Mars Arrested In Vegas...For Coke!
Bruno Mars reportedly had two and a half grams of coke on him when he was asked to empty his pockets for Hard Rock security after spending an inordinate amount of time in a hotel bathroom. Paris Hilton reportedly had almost a gram on her, lied to police about it and then changed her story in court, and still only ended up getting community service and a warning to be a good girl for a year.
What will the state of Nevada do with the popular but probably less-connected Bruno Mars, real name Peter Hernandez? Will charges be filed as they were in the case of Paris Hilton, or could he get out of coming back to Vegas to answer for the narcotics?
According to PopEater.com, Bruno Mars (arrested in Vegas on Sunday) told cops he had never touched coke before, and simply made a "foolish" decision that evening. He apparently has a November court date pending.
A former Arizona state prison employee, Sean T. of Tucson, thinks Mars will likely get off. "It would seem a bit unfair to convict one person of a felony and let the other cop to such a lenient plea. Powder is powder, coke is coke. He should get off easy, too, by that logic."

It would be highly unfair if he gets more harsh treatment than Paris. I hope he's telling the truth and he learns from his mistakes.

man shhh!!!!!!!!
hey... dat sucks u got arressted! hope you wont be in there for a long timeQ
I am so disappointed. I will never buy one of his songs again. Mistakes are mistakes, and they shouldn't be forgiven too easily.
People stop listening to singers because they have different political views (how dumb is that?) but not because they behave like criminals (that's uber dumb).
You shouldn't do that . It will make him feel terrible . Look , when he was just normal top hit artist , you supported him , bought all his CD's , but when he needed a full support , you just let go? what kind of fan is this . Sorry , I didn't mean to hurt you , but im stating a fact . Get that right .
seriously?
thats kinda being a duche. no offense but everyone deserves a second chance.
no ones perfect.
You dumb hoes suck.
Dnt worry Bruno , eventhough you are arrested or whatsoever , we will support you no matter what . Fans out there are still waiting for you . I hope you wouldn't get arrested ! In any way , you have a clean record . So , I hope you wouldn't get in , huh ? Will pray for you very hard !
Everyone will be praying. He isnt this kind of person and it was a mistake.
I hope that he is okay. He never would do anything like this. I love him <3 <3

oh wow i love bruno ill still listen to his music but the love for him is dying out. i dont need a drug addict as a role model
It's true that someone who does drugs regularly might not be the best role model, however, we don't know if that is the case here. Bruno Mars has come into new, fast fame, and may have simply made a bad choice. A drug addict wouldn't likely get themselves caught by letting others see/hear him doing coke....something tells me he may have been telling the truth (shocking, I know!) when he said he doesn't have much experience with the drug and was merely experimenting. Let's hope so! Thanks for reading.
