Of the five singles for Bruno to be certified, “Just The Way You Are” has been certified 12x platinum, “Uptown Funk!” and “When I Was Your Man” are certified 11x platinum and “That’s What I Like” and “Grenade” are both 10x platinum.

“Congratulations to Bruno Mars – the first artist with five Diamond Single Awards in the history of RIAA’s Gold and Platinum Program! This milestone is a testament to Bruno’s unstoppable creative genius and the incredible partnership he has built with the team at Atlantic Records,” Mitch Glazier, Chairman and CEO, Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), said in a statement. “What Bruno has accomplished is just extraordinary. Fewer than 60 Diamond Single Awards have ever been awarded – and Bruno now has five of them!”

The record-breaking news for Bruno was amplified when his “Leave The Door Open” collaboration with Anderson .Paak returned to the top of the Billboard Hot 100 chart on Wednesday (May 19). To date, the video has been viewed more than 200 million times as fans continue to wait for the duo to release the full album.

“WE GONE BE SINGIN THIS ALL YEAR!!! YALL MIGHT NOT EVER GET THE ALBUM!!” Paak exclaimed on Twitter. “LOVE FROM
@SILKSONIC!”
