Report: Bruno Mars invited to perform in Super Bowl 50 halftime show

Bruno Mars gave a once-in-a-lifetime performance during the halftime show of Super Bowl XLVIII.

Or so we thought. Looks like he might get a chance to make it twice in a lifetime. Multiple media outlets are reporting that the NFL has invited Mars back for the halftime show at Super Bowl 50 at the end of this season.

So why Mars again? And why so soon?

Well, according to Nielsen, his 2014 performance was watched by 115 million viewers, which was a record until Katy Perry beat it with 121 viewers this year.

Plus, since he last took the stage during the NFL's biggest game, Mars was the featured vocalist on one of the biggest pop hits of all time -- Mark Ronson's "Uptown Funk," which spent 14 weeks atop Billboard's Hot 100 chart.
