Meanwhile, Singersroom interviewed Trey, where he spoke on being happy with success.
“Happy would be an understatement. Am I content? I don’t think I would ever be content but happy is something I’m definitely am. I’ve done amazing things with my life. I just turned 27, I just gave all of my earnings from a show to a great cause that I’m going to be able to help children eat on the weekend when they’re not in school. A kid without a coat could have a coat because of something I’m doing with my life. Because of the talent that God gave me, people love me all around the world and one thing I’ve learned throughout my travels, throughout my career…success and happiness can’t really be judged by what other people think. You have to find that place for yourself and I’m successful as hell and I’m happy as a maf**ka.”

Chart-topping sensation Bruno Mars is up for six Grammy trophies, including three of the “Big Four”: Album of the Year for Doo-Wops & Hooligans as well as Record of the Year and Song of the Year for “Grenade.” Following the Grammy Nominations Concert, Bruno and his team, the Smeezingtons, spoke with MTV about their nominations.
“We worked really hard,” Bruno said. “We worked hard in the studio right down the street, actually. And it’s a little tiny shack, but for the two years we were in there, we just locked ourselves in that room and came up with Doo-Wops & Hooligans.”
He continued by speaking on his smash hit “Grenade.”
“[We] worked extremely hard on ‘Grenade.’ That was the hardest song on the whole album to finish because we knew we had something, and to get all that emotion out. I think I can speak for all of us when I say that we’re really happy that that song is being recognized because that’s like our trophy song.”

“In any light that a woman feels disrespected, and I have thick skin, but when you’re at your job and somebody sexually harasses you in a manner that is very vulgar and disgusting, I have no shame in sticking up for myself and telling you ‘you’re improper right now. I’m at work, we’re on set, there’s children around us, you’re really out of line right now’.”
