Bruno Mars' Super Bowl performance last Sunday was the most-watched halftime show in history. The crooner's drum solo and smooth retro dance moves proved a hit with fans, pulling in 115.3 million viewers during the big game. Bruno beat out past heavyweight halftime performers like Beyoncé, who drew 110.8 million viewers in 2013, and Madonna who had 114 million viewers in 2012.

Bruno performed "Locked Out Of Heaven," "Treasure" and "Runaway Baby" with some help from the Red Hot Chili Peppers. 

Not surprisingly, the singer's Doowops and Hooligans shot back to the top of the iTunes charts the morning after the glitzy show.
