Nick Cannon says he'd rather see Bruno Mars live than Beyoncé or Taylor Swift.

Nick Cannon says he believes that Bruno Mars has more hit records than both Beyoncé and Taylor Swift. He made his case for why he'd rather go see Mars live during a recent episode of his podcast, The Daily Cannon.

"See I think, no offense, but I would rather go to a Bruno Mars show than a Beyoncé or Taylor Swift," Cannon said. "Who got more hits?" When his co-hosts confidently chose Beyoncé, he responded, "I'm a Beyoncé fan. I still believe Bruno Mars actually has more hit records." While they cited "Crazy in Love," "Drunk in Love," "Single Ladies," and many more songs from Beyoncé, Cannon failed to name a single comparable track from Mars.

While Cannon couldn't name a Bruno Mars hit, he does have plenty. Over the years, he's dropped numerous number-one singles including "Just the Way You Are", "Grenade", "The Lazy Song," "When I Was Your Man," and more.

Fans of Cannon's understood both sides of the argument on Instagram "Bruno’s dance talent is incredible and shows do remind you of Morris Day and the Time. Beyoncé does have bangers. Both at the top of the game," one user commented on the clip. Another agreed, "Bruno Mars has an AMAZING show!!!! AMAZING!!!! Live vocals, live dancing, live instruments and FUN!!!! Great, great entertainer and I’m not exaggerating. I was thoroughly surprised and pleased at his show!"

Nick Cannon Picks Bruno Mars Over Beyoncé

The discussion comes as Beyoncé begins to travel the globe on the Renaissance World Tour, which marks her first solo tour since the Formation World Tour in 2016. She'll be performing a total of 57 shows through September 27, 2023, stopping in England, Spain, France, Germany, and more. Beyoncé will return to the United States on July 12 for a show at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia.
