[2] In 2023, when she was 17, she went viral for a soon-deleted TikTok video in which she tries to make pasta and says she was grounded for trying to use her father's credit card to take a helicopter to dinner with an out-of-state friend. [3]

Mars began writing music when she was 12. [4] She released her first pop singles, "Stuck Up" and "From a Distance", on May 22, 2024. [5] [6]

Mars appeared in a small role as a reporter in her grandfather Francis Ford Coppola's film Megalopolis , which premiered at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival. [1] She played the student Kayla in the FX comedy series English Teacher later that year. [7]
