Bruno Mars/ Associated Press He’s a hit recording artist, hit producer and hit songwriter. And now Bruno Mars is the headliner for Macy’s 20th annual Glamorama Aug. 5 at the Orpheum Theatre. Mars is a stylish dresser in addition to being the Grammy-winning voice behind "Just the Way You Are" and "Grenade," the producer of "Nothin’ on You" and "Billionaire," and the songwriter of "Forget You" and "Right Round." Mars will be in concert Wednesday at Roy Wilkins Auditorium in St. Paul. Also performing at Glamorama will be the Far East Movement, the Los Angeles electro-pop group that hit the top of the charts last year with "Like a G6." The Glamorama theme this year is "Artrageous." Featured designers include Marc Jacobs and Jean Paul Gaultier. As always, the event is a fundraiser for the Children’s Cancer Research Fund. Tickets, priced from $60 to $1,000, will go on sale June 1 to American Express cardholders and June 8 to others at Ticketmaster outlets.
