  • The fight will take place at the 80,000-seat AT&T Stadium, home of the Dallas Cowboys
  • Jake Paul promised on Instagram that he would make Mike Tyson ‘fall asleep’ if they fought
  • Tyson will be 58 by the time they meet in the ring, while Paul will be 27

Jake Paul will sensationally fight Mike Tyson at AT&T Stadium in Dallas on July 20 – and has promised to ‘put the boxing legend to sleep’.

There is a 30-year age difference between the two fighters, with 27-year-old Paul facing off against the 57-year-old heavyweight boxing legend. Tyson will be 58 by the time the fight takes place.

The fight, held at the 80,000-seat home of the Dallas Cowboys, will be streamed live on Netflix, which released a teaser video of the event showing Paul stepping out of a helicopter and taking on Tyson.

“I’m really looking forward to getting in the ring with Jake Paul,” Tyson said.

“He’s grown a lot as a boxer over the years, so it’ll be a lot of fun to see what the will and ambition of a ‘kid’ can do with the experience and aptitude of a GOAT.”

Paul, who won his latest fight against Ryan Bourland on Saturday, wrote on Instagram: “It’s time to put Iron Mike to sleep.”

He added: “It’s crazy to think that in my second pro fight I went viral for knocking out Nate Robinson on Mike Tyson’s undercard.

“Now, less than four years later, I’m taking on Tyson myself to see if I have what it takes to beat one of the most infamous boxers and biggest icons in boxing.

“My sights are set on becoming a world champion, and now I have the chance to prove myself against the greatest heavyweight champion ever, the baddest man in the world and the most dangerous boxer of all time. This will be the fight of your life.’

Paul later shared a video of Tyson in practice just two weeks ago, looking in great shape.

“He’s the greatest heavyweight of all time…the most vicious KO artist ever. But I’m younger, I’m faster and I’m going to do my best to get stronger,” Paul wrote. “A member of my team sent me this video that Mike’s coach posted two weeks ago asking me if I’m sure I want to do this… yes, yes I do. Heavyweight.’

Tyson, the former heavyweight champion, returned to the ring in 2020 for an eight-round exhibition fight against Roy Jones Jr. in Los Angeles.

His last professional fight was in 2005 and it is unclear whether this fight will be categorized as a professional fight or an exhibition event.

He has also teamed up with Francis Ngannou, the former UFC fighter who switched to boxing and was narrowly defeated by Tyson Fury. Ngannou fights Anthony Joshua on Friday, but Tyson has not been involved with him for this training camp.

Paul, meanwhile, is 9-1 with six KOs on his crossover from YouTuber to boxer. His only loss was to Tommy Fury, Tyson’s younger brother.

He has defeated former UFC stars Nate Diaz, Anderson Silva and Tyron Woodley, as well as journeymen like Andre August and Bourland.

The event also marks a new foray into live sports broadcasting by Netflix, which has also streamed ‘The Netflix Cup’ – a golf event between Formula 1 drivers and golfers – and a tennis event called Netflix Slam.

Netflix has partnered with Paul’s Most Valuable Promotions organization to co-host the event with Tyson.

Paul said: ‘Within just two and a half years of MVP’s founding, we are about to produce the biggest fight in history, a fight in the biggest NFL stadium in the US, broadcast live on the biggest streaming platform in the world – a testament to all we have achieved in such a short time.”

A Dallas woman is fighting for her life after a horrific car crash that also killed her college roommate.

Camryn Herriage, 23, was riding in a car with her college roommate and three other friends on Feb. 11.

Ttheir vehicle was waiting at a red light on Beckley Avenue, where the Woodall Rogers Freeway ends, when a Ford pickup truck crashed into them, causing a chain reaction car crash. Fox4 News reported.

All passengers were rushed to hospital, where HErriage has been in intensive care for the past month on a ventilator due to life-threatening injuries sustained in the fatal crash.

Bystanders reported seeing a woman exit the driver’s side of the truck and flee from the scene on foot “dressed in a little black dress and white club shoes,” according to an arrest affidavit.

The woman who allegedly left was later identified by police as 27-year-old Carmen Guerrero.

Detectives said they found Guerrero’s wallet in the abandoned Ford truck and took her into custody 11 days after the crash.

She now faces multiple charges, including manslaughter and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. She is being held in the Dallas County Jail.

While Herriage continues to fight for her life in the ICU, her older sister Casie Campanello has not left her side for weeks.

‘Literally: a careless act. It put us in a situation that changed our entire lives,” she said. “We’re very helpless and just staying strong for her, but it’s very hard to watch.”

She added: ‘When she came out of her first operation, the surgeon told us he had told us he had never seen anyone come to hospital with her injury. So she has a purpose.”

Herriage’s best friend and Texas Tech University roommate was tragically killed in the collision.

Sara House, 23, worked as an executive sales associate at Ralph Lauren after graduating from Texas Tech, having studied business, management and marketing and also competing in bikini competitions.

The Maracana, Wembley and the Azteca are among the iconic stadiums to have played host to football’s biggest match: The World Cup final.

Just 20 venues have had the honour of providing the stage for final, with the Maracana and the Azteca doing so on two occasions.

On Sunday FIFA are set to confirm the AT&T Stadium in Dallas will become the 21st, staging the finale of the 104 match tournament co-hosted by the United States, Canada and Mexico.

The venue emerged as the winner in a two-way battle against the MetLife Stadium in New York.

FIFA President Gianni Infantino had lauded the stadium when he visited back in September, appearing to hint that the venue was set to be chosen.

The AT&T stadium in Dallas has been announced as the host of the 2026 FIFA World Cup final

‘The stadium is absolutely fantastic,’ Infantino said.

‘It’s incredible to be here… it’s important to see all the stadiums, it’s important to see what is done for the fans.

‘I have to say in America, you are light years ahead compared to the rest of the world.

‘So, we’re here to learn, we are here to check and we are here to make, and organise, the biggest, biggest World Cup ever.’ 

The Swiss official made the comments as he watched the Dallas Cowboys earn a 30-10 win over the New York Jets. It proved to be an omen with Dallas beating New York again to secure 2026 final. 

Clearly, Infantino did not take too much offence to being booed when his face appeared on screen at the venue.

FIFA has described the venue as a ‘jaw-dropping example of stadium architecture’, adding that it provides a ‘once-in-a-lifetime’ visitor experience.

Another factor contributing to stadium’s selection is its capacity. While typically boasting a capacity of 80,000 – less than the MetLife’s 82,500 – the bid book says the venue will house 92,967 fans during the World Cup.

The capacity will be the highest of all the 16 stadiums selected for the expanded 48-team tournament, with the potential for a further expansion to over 100,000 seats.

The stadium has been the home to the Dallas Cowboys since 2009 after the near £1billion project was completed.

Initially known as the Cowboys Stadium, a naming rights agreement with the telecommunications company AT&T was reached in 2014. The stadium has also been dubbed as Jerry World and The Death Star after Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones.

Under FIFA’s policy of World Cup venues remaining unsponsored, the venue is expected to be known as Dallas Stadium or revert to Cowboys Stadium for the duration of the tournament.

The stadium boasts over 300 luxury suites, ten premium clubs, and club seating on multiple levels, which typically offer premium hospitality during NFL matches and will provide similar during the World Cup.

This includes the Touchdown and Field suites which offer guests unique views from either behind each endzone during matches or from the north or south sidelines. The latter also includes a lounge which lets fans watch players enter and level the field of play via a Draftkings Club.

The stadium also includes Hall of Fame, Owners and Optum Club suites, with the latter claimed to be the best experience in the NFL.

The suite features an all-inclusive Legends club, where chefs serve five-star catering and a bar with service from the city’s top mixologists. Each suite includes granite countertops, plush stadium seating, in-suite private restrooms, while the sightlines are considered to be the best in the venue.

Prices of the private suites are claimed to range from between £4,700 to £70,000, according to the Suite Experience Group. In their bid book to FIFA, organisers said the stadium can host 10,000 people in luxury suites, as well as a further 15,000 in club seats.

The stadium notably has two arches which support a retractable roof, offering the prospect the World Cup final can be held indoors for the first time in history. 

A closed roof and climate control would enable organisers to play the final on July 19 in a cooler temperature, with Dallas capable of reaching as high a 36°C during the month.

‘We have over three million air-conditioned square feet inside the stadium,’ Jones said when pitching to host the final.

‘The stadium has complete flexibility as to its weather conditions. We can basically have perfect weather.’

Beneath the roof, the stadium boasts a giant HDTV, measured at 160 feet wide and 72 feet tall. The video display was the biggest in the world when the stadium opened.

The giant screen, suspended 28 metres above the pitch, cost a reported £31.5million and took Mitsubishi over one year to construct and four months to install.

The screen is not the only excess at the stadium, which also boasts a world class collection of contemporary art. More than 50 pieces from an international array of curated artists are displayed on walls and public spaces at the venue.

The stadium typically hosts NFL events and staged the 2011 Super Bowl, but has repeatedly hosted major events and concerts.

This includes hosting the 2010 NBA All-Star Game, as well as boxing fights featuring the likes of Manny Pacquiao and Canelo Alvarez. Alvarez’s fight with Billy Joe Saunders in 2021 achieved a record 73,126 crowd for a boxing match indoors in the United States.

Increasingly the stadium has welcomed football matches, with Barcelona, Real Madrid and Chelsea among the leading clubs to have been hosted, as well as the Mexican national team.

Key matches at the CONCACAF Gold Cup have been staged at the venue, while the stadium will also host matches at this summer’s Copa America.

The Dallas bid team had stressed these matches showed their experience in switching between turf and grass pitches, with the latter required by FIFA for the World Cup.

‘We’ve done this on multiple occasions, modified the boundaries in the stadium, basically cleared out some of the infrastructure at the field level,’ Jones said.

‘The stadium was built to do that. Not only do we have the flexibility [to install natural] grass, but we also have the ability to configure the actual field size.’

The comment was backed up by Dan Hunt, chairman of Dallas’ World Cup bid and FC Dallas President. Hunt’s late father and businessman, Lamar Hunt, was a key figure in the growth of the professional game in the United States in the 1990s and helped deliver the 1994 World Cup.

Hunt claimed the NFL stadium will have to make only minor modifications as it prepares to host football matches at the 2026 FIFA World Cup

‘We’ve proven we can put a grass field in the stadium, and stadium modifications will be minimal,’ Hunt said.

‘I think a number of venues are struggling with what their modifications will have to be.

‘I know a lot of these stadiums well, being in the NFL business, and AT&T looks like it’ll be on the low side of renovations.’

Dallas is also seeking to host the World Cup’s Broadcast Centre and host the referee headquarters during the tournament. 

FIFA previously placed its tournament headquarters and the IBC in the Texan city during the 1994 FIFA World Cup, when Dallas hosted six matches at the Cotton Bowl.

Globe Life Field and Choctaw Stadium, the current and former homes of the Texas Rangers baseball team, have been earmarked to host major fan festivals during the World Cup.

The stadium is set to join the Rose Bowl in becoming US venues to host the men's World Cup final

‘You could cordon off this whole area and do a ticketed event of 200,000+ people, something that has never ever been seen at a World Cup, especially a World Cup final before,’ Hunt said in October.

‘This would be something that I think would set the record.

‘FIFA wants to continue to innovate and by doing this, we’re doing something that I’m not sure we’ll ever be done again.’

One potential issue facing fans is that the AT&T is not currently accessible through public transport, but Dallas organisers have insisted they are on top of planning.

The stadium is now poised to join the iconic Rose Bowl in California in becoming the second venue in the United States to stage the FIFA Men’s World Cup final.

Matthew Vaughn's highly anticipated big budget film Argylle – designed to kick off a new blockbuster spy series – has been savaged by film critics, with one labeling the film as one of the 'worst films ever made'.

The film, which features a star-studded cast including Bryce Dallas Howard, Dua Lipa, Henry Cavill and Samuel L. Jackson, and cost Apple Original Films an eye-watering $200 million, has been universally panned in reviews released Wednesday.

Based on a recently published book of the same name, it follows introverted spy writer Elly Conway (played by Howard) who is drawn into the real world of espionage when the plots of her books get a little too close to her activities. a sinister underground syndicate.

The film was called 'one of the most expensive worst films ever made' by Katie Walsh from Tribune News Serviceand currently has a rating of 37% Rotten tomatoes.

“One of the most chaotically stupid action films to torture audiences in a long time,” says Barry Hertz Globe and mail said about the movie.

Critics have labeled Matthew Vaughn's $200 million spy film Argylle as “one of the most expensive, worst films ever made.” The film features an A-list cast including Dua Lipa and Henry Cavill

Another reviewer called it

Another reviewer called it “one of the most chaotically stupid action films to torture audiences in a long time.”

'The comedic touch is almost as heavy-handed as the slow-motion-drenched action is boring, seemingly designed primarily to answer the question, “How many movie stars can one fiasco waste?”' Nick Schager of The everyday beast asked.

“A talented cast trapped in an endless story with a fake cat,” says Matt Singer ScreenCrush joked.

David Fear of Rolling stone kept his review simple and to the point, writing: 'Argylle is a bad movie. A very, very bad movie.'

“It's all starting to feel like one of those very expensive, very elaborate commercials for a pseudo-luxury product you don't want to buy — a perfume, perhaps, or a car,” wrote Leslie Felperin of the Hollywood reporter.

Meanwhile, Carla Hay is out Cultural mix called the film, “An incoherent, bloated mess filled with stupid plot twists, terrible dialogue, and a gimmicky cat that looks fake for most of the movie.” Henry Cavill is not the protagonist. Argylle is mainly Sam Rockwell who plays smug and Bryce Dallas Howard who is terrified.'

Meanwhile, Bryce's performance was called “terrible.” The guards Peter Bradshaw.

“Here, through terrible anti-alchemy direction, he has produced a terrible starring role from Bryce Dallas Howard as spy writer Elly Conway, whose creations eerily mirror real life.”

“She looks waxy, inert, and uncomfortable; it's as if she's wearing ground glass contact lenses, with a dull, blurry quality that doesn't explain or excuse the script's big twist,” he wrote.

However, some critics praised Bryce's performance as the film's saving grace. “Howard does her best to keep things lively, but she's hampered by dull characterization,” notes Richard Lawson of Vanity fair.

He adds: 'Argylle tries desperately to be kicky, twisty and raw, but above all it feels like a chore, a slog through painful jokes and canned charisma.'

'There's way too much CGI. It's half an hour longer than even the most tolerant Vaughn fan will allow. And yet. Howard is so irrepressibly charming that it proves difficult to completely resist Argylle,” Donald Clarke of the Irish times wrote.

Sam Rockwell and Bryan Cranston also received praise for their roles.

The film, based on an adaptation of a recently published book of the same name by a writer also called Elly Conway, will be released on February 2.

The film stars Cavill as lead agent Argylle opposite femme fatale Dua Lipa in her feature film debut.

It was first announced in June 2021, with a script adapted from the novel before it was even published.

'When I read this early draft manuscript, I felt that it was the most incredible and original spy franchise since Ian Fleming's books of the 1950s. This is going to reinvent the spy genre,” Vaughn said.

There were even rumors that 34-year-old singer Taylor Swift was the secret novelist behind the book, although Vaughn has since shut down that conspiracy.

Little has been shared about author Elly Conway – whose name is used for Bryce's character in the film, and spelled interchangeably as Ellie and Elly in promotional materials.

On the Penguin website, Elly's biography simply reads: “She lives in the United States and is currently working on the next installment in the series.” Elly's Instagram account is empty – she only follows one person: her agent Eric Reid.

The film is scheduled for release on February 2, 2024.

Arctic freeze: Much of the United States of America (USA) continues to suffer severe cold wave conditions as the Arctic Freeze/Arctic Blast continues to devastate vast swaths of the country with sub-zero temperatures.

According to the AP, “Dangerously cold temperatures affected much of the Rockies, Great Plains and the Midwest on Tuesday, with wind chills below minus 30 degrees (minus 34.4 degrees Celsius) in many parts of the central U.S.” .

It also reported that more than 85,000 U.S. homes and businesses were without power Tuesday morning, with the majority in Oregon following widespread power outages that began Saturday. Meanwhile, Portland General Electric warned that the threat of freezing rain on Tuesday could slow recovery efforts and transportation officials urged residents to avoid travel as roads were expected to be dangerously slippery with ice covering trees and power lines. could become heavier, causing them to sag. fall.

The bad weather has also affected studies, as classes were canceled Tuesday for students in Portland and other major cities including Chicago, home to the nation's fourth-largest public school district, Denver, Dallas and Fort Worth, Texas .

The storms and freezing temperatures affected everything from air travel to NFL playoff games to the Iowa presidential caucuses, and resulted in the deaths of several people across the country.

At least four people in the Portland area died, including two people from suspected hypothermia. Another man was killed after a tree fell on his home and a woman died in a fire that spread from an open fire stove after a tree fell on a camper.

In Wisconsin, the deaths of three homeless people in the Milwaukee area were under investigation, with hypothermia as the likely cause, officials said.

Freezing rain and sleet were expected to continue in parts of the South East until Tuesday morning. Winter storm warnings were in effect for Lawrence, Limestone and Madison counties in Alabama and Franklin County in Tennessee, southeastern Arkansas, northeastern Louisiana and much of north-central and southwestern Mississippi.

On Monday night, temperatures dropped as low as 10 degrees (minus 12.2 C) in Olive Branch, Mississippi, and Jackson, Tennessee.

Air travelers across the country faced delays and cancellations. The flight tracking service FlightAware reported about 2,900 cancellations in, to or from the United States on Monday.

The National Weather Service said Monday that wind chills are expected to raise temperatures from the northern Rockies to northern Kansas and Iowa by 30 degrees below zero, while Arctic storms have left at least four dead and cut electricity to tens of thousands in the Northwest have disabled and caused snow. south and hit the Northeast with snowstorms forcing the postponement of the Pittsburgh Steelers vs. NFL playoff game.

Why the definition of 'extreme cold' is different in Duluth and Dallas http://usmail24.com/extreme-cold-definition-html/ http://usmail24.com/extreme-cold-definition-html/#respond Sun, 14 Jan 2024 12:05:07 +0000 https://usmail24.com/extreme-cold-definition-html/

As a mass of frigid Arctic air descends on much of the United States over the next week, meteorologists and public health officials are well aware that it's unlikely a North Dakotan and a South Texan will agree on what's coming down on 'extreme cold'.

As such, the National Weather Service and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention emphasize that there is no set definition for extreme cold, and that the point at which forecasters will warn residents that falling temperatures pose a danger to them is tailored to the prevailing conditions in the region. climate.

“Everyone's extreme is at a different level,” said Ketzel Levens, a meteorologist at the Weather Service office in Duluth, Minnesota, where the average daily temperature in January is a chilly 9.4 degrees. 'People in the north may have better protection. They may have many more clothes and layers. Our homes, our water infrastructure, they are built to a different standard.”

And so if you warned Minnesotans every time it was just freezing, you'd have a hard time getting their attention when it was dangerously cold. Mrs. Levens office only issues a wind chill warning when the temperature reaches minus 25, and a wind chill warning when it reaches 40 degrees lower.

While it won't be historically cold in Duluth this week — temperatures could reach minus 7 degrees — Ms. Levens said residents may still feel the chill as the city emerges from its second-warmest December on record.

About 1,000 miles south, the Dallas-Fort Worth area won't be as cold as Duluth this week, with a low of 15 degrees. But the freezing temperatures there could have a bigger impact, said Tom Bradshaw, a meteorologist with the service office in Fort Worthwhere the average high temperature for January is 56 degrees.

“We could see 80 to 85 hours of subzero temperatures here,” he said, “which for us is definitely on the colder side of what we normally experience.”

His office sends out an alert when the wind chill is expected to dip below zero, while an alert comes when the wind chill is likely to dip below minus 18, Mr Bradshaw said.

On the plus side, he said, this week's cold snap is not expected to be accompanied by precipitation and icing, which ravaged Texas during a storm in February 2021. More than 200 people died and millions were left without electricity and heat in the cold. . Many also lacked clean water because pipes had burst or water treatment plants had failed.

Not only is the infrastructure in the South not as comfortable in such extremes, but the population – which is less accustomed to severe winter weather – may also have a harder time, according to Dr. Gordon Giesbrecht, an expert on cold weather physiology and hypothermia at the University of Manitoba.

The body responds to feeling cold, he said, by tightening blood vessels to stop blood flow to the extremities. This protects a person's core and vital organs from cold. The body may also shiver to increase heat production, he said. But both protective tendencies cause the skin to become colder and at greater risk of frostbite.

“People who are better adapted to the cold, like if you live in Minnesota, your skin won't get as cold,” said Dr. Giesbrecht. “Your body learns through continued exposure that, 'We can afford to lose a little heat at the expense of keeping our skin warm, because it takes a lot to actually cool the core.'”

People unaccustomed to such cold are likely to experience more constriction, he said, putting them at greater risk of frostbite. Dr. Giesbrecht advised keeping the head, fingers and toes well covered.

The possibility of frostbite naturally faces anyone who feels cold, whether better adapted to extremes or not.

“People are often fooled. They don't feel anything and say, 'Okay, I'm fine now,'” said Dr. Giesbrecht about the numbness caused by frigid temperatures. “You have to do something: either add more insulation, or exercise to increase your heat production, or go indoors.”

And keep in mind that even Minnesota is relatively warm by some standards. Natalie Hasell, a warning preparedness meteorologist for the Canadian government, said that on the shores of Hudson Bay in northern Manitoba, the threshold for a wind chill advisory is minus 50 degrees Celsius, or about minus 58 degrees Fahrenheit.

It's not like the people there are “superhuman,” she explained, because someone's skin could freeze after five to 10 minutes of exposure to temperatures below minus 40, or even faster in high winds.

“But it just happens so often there that they would never hear the message about when it would be really bad,” Ms. Hasell said. She added: “If you only have two minutes before your skin can freeze, you want to hear that when you're used to 10 minutes.”

Christie Brinkley wants Dolly Parton to join her in the ranks of Sports Illustrated’s swimsuit models to prove to critics that age is just a number.

The 69-year-old Vacation alum liked her Instagram On Wednesday, she defended the country singer, 77, after she was accused of being too old to dress up as a Dallas Cowboy cheerleader during the NFL Thanksgiving Day Halftime Show.

“Anyone who has the audacity to suggest that the one and only Dolly Parton should dress her age needs to sit down!” Christie captioned a beautiful throwback photo of the two women posing together.

During Christie’s fiery defense of Dolly, she also suggested the “Jolene” singer clap back at trolls by donning a swimsuit for the famous Sports Illustrated spread.

“I’ll cut this short, like your amazing outfit, and just say: LOVE YOU DOLLY!” Maybe @si_swimsuit will be next?’ Christie wrote.

“I’ll cut this short, like your amazing outfit, and just say: LOVE YOU DOLLY!” Maybe @si_swimsuit will be next?’ Christie wrote; Saw Dolly on Sunday

The supermodel – who has written about the magazine’s annual swimsuit issue a record four times – continued: ‘You should know that you can’t define an icon like Dolly Parton with a number! Also immeasurable are her talents, too many to count, her boundless good energy and vibrant humor, and her golden philanthropic heart full of love!

“And the fact that she can also rock a Dallas cheer outfit is inspiring and fun!” Oh and don’t forget @dollyparton is also topping the Billboard charts this week! Brava, go girl!’

If Dolly takes Christie’s encouraging words to heart and poses for the magazine, she will be in good company, as Martha Stewart did at age 81.

Christie wasn’t the only celebrity to defend Dolly’s choice of clothing. because Whoopi Goldberg also had some nice words for the naysayers on Monday’s episode of The View.

“Shame on you, shame on you all,” she said. “She’s someone who doesn’t care what you think.

“She is someone who thinks for herself, and I would like all of you haters to do half of what she did on that stage,” she continued.

“Show me any dance videos you haven’t cleaned up yet,” she said. “Don’t be dark, man. Life is too short.’

Parton’s younger sister, Stella, also came to the defense, telling critics to “f*** yourself” in a tweet shared on X.

“To those of you who are so critical of a 77-year-old kicking up her heels, I say f*** yourselves. Shame on you, not her.”

The 10-time Grammy winner did not respond to the comments, but shared teasers ahead of her Thanksgiving performance and posted a promo for her rock album Rockstar.

During the holiday halftime show, she sang a medley of some of her biggest hits, including Jolene, 9 to 5, as well as covers of Queen’s We are the Champions and We Will Rock You.

Country icon Dolly Parton, who belied her age in a daring cheerleading outfit, drove the crowd wild during the halftime show of the Commanders-Cowboys game in Dallas on Thanksgiving.

The 77-year-old took center stage in a tiny blue and white top and mini shorts at AT&T Stadium as the Cowboys led 20-10 against Washington on Thursday.

Parton performed two of her biggest hits, “Jolene” and “9 to 5,” and also sang “We Are the Champions/We Will Rock You” to a sold-out crowd in Texas.

Fans were blown away by her brief live performance, with Undisputed’s Skip Bayless being one of the first on X (formerly Twitter) to praise Parton.

“How about that Dolly Parton,” the sports analyst posted. ‘Talk about dressing for the occasion. That’s impressive.’

“Joe Biden is 81. Donald Trump is 77. If we have to pick an old person, let it be Dolly Parton,” another added, with the US election fast approaching.

Meanwhile, another fan labeled her a ‘queen’ and another called her a ‘national treasure’ as the performance left the majority of fans impressed.

In the CBS booth, announcer Tony Romo couldn’t hide his excitement when discussing Parton’s Thanksgiving performance.

After seeing 77-year-old Dallas in her cheerleading outfit, Romo and Jim Nantz discussed the show in the booth — and the former made his feelings very clear.

“She was wearing the…Cowboys cheerleading outfit,” he began, addressing Nantz in the booth. ‘You saw that coming, didn’t you?

“You said, ‘I think she’s going to wear a little cheerleading outfit tonight,’ and I thought, ‘Wow, pretty good.’

Nantz then tried to change the conversation by asking, “What do you think we’re going to see in the second half?”, but Romo wasn’t ready to continue, adding, “I mean, she looks great , However? She is amazing. Who doesn’t love Dolly Parton?’

Parton’s live performance was very different from Jack Harlow’s, as the majority of fans at the Green Bay Packers’ win over rival, the Detroit Lions, were unimpressed with the rapper’s halftime performance .

To conclude America’s annual fall holiday, DJ Steve Aoki will perform during halftime of the late night match between the Seattle Seahawks and the San Francisco 49ers.

The rivalry between Commanders and Cowboys is a common theme on Thanksgiving Day, as it has been played ten times in the past.

Dallas won eight of those games, winning again Thursday night, 45-10.

Elle Macpherson lost her patience with customs officials at Dallas-Fort Worth airport in America when she had to wait in line.

The Australian supermodel, 59, snapped at an employee as she was waved through customs only to be called back, reported Perth Now on Sunday.

And the WelleCo founder made no effort to hide her irritation at having to wait while everyone else went through customs.

Having to wait in line longer than she expected, Elle expressed her frustrations to security and demanded answers.

“Why did you just tell me to go ahead and then tell me to come back?” Elle snapped.

She continued, “You just let five people through. I was ahead of them and now I’m behind again.’

The tall beauty carried a $5,300 Christian Dior leopard print tote bag and was dressed in a luxurious Texan-style ensemble as she went on her rant.

Elle’s outburst comes after she was criticized by followers in September when her wellness brand WelleCo failed to deliver paid orders.

After she shared a glamorous selfie on her company’s Instagram account, disgruntled customers still waiting for their products lashed out at her.

Some flocked to the comments, claiming they had not yet received orders they ordered up to a month ago and were being ignored by customer service.

“Why do you have time to post on IG, but haven’t gotten a response to outstanding orders since September 1st,” one person wrote.

Another said: ‘Can someone please respond to my email or direct message as I have been charged for my subscription and still have not received my product.’

‘Hello, I tried to receive my order! And no one responded to my email and customer service request,” a third added.

Someone else suggested that Elle and WelleCo should “scale back advertising” until they have “sufficient supply.”

WelleCo CEO Leighton Richards released a statement to address the issue and allay customer concerns, blaming “upsizing” for the missing orders.

The crowds poured in Highland Park Village are hungry for luxury. At this open-air mall in a Dallas suburb, they park their Porsches, flaunt Yves Saint Laurent handbags, flit in and out of Audemars Piguet, and pause for brunch at Sadelle’s, the posh new sandwich shop from major food group in New York City.

Sadelle’s has been open a little over a year now, and it’s not unusual for the place to be packed on Tuesday afternoons as well-dressed diners sip mimosas and snack on $18 pigs in a blanket and $85 latkes topped with salmon and Osetra caviar. Even the sugar for the coffee is served in tiny Le Creuset frying pans.

Dallas has long had a reputation for living big, an image built on oil money and the sprawling farms on it. eponymous TV series. But today the city is enjoying a surge of new development, new residents, new wealth – and a dining scene pumped up by the arrival of several high-end national restaurant groups, all looking to cater for the party.

These companies are giving Dallas the kind of attention they’ve previously given to tourist playgrounds like Las Vegas and Miami. In the past two years, local outposts have been established bySTKRV, Komodo, La Neta Cocina and Lounge even Nusr-Et, the Salt Bae steak house. Major Food Group opened a Dallas branch of its maximalist Italian restaurant Carbone last year and says it has even bigger ambitions in the city.

The local rumor mill is abuzz with speculation about the next potential entry – names like Joe’s stone crab from Miami (which said it had no such plan), or Ralph Lauren’s Polo bar (who did not respond to requests for comment) and pastis (who said it was in “preliminary talks” about a space) from New York City.

“I’ve been called by every restaurant group in the country,” says Stephen Summers, whose family owns Highland Park Village. He added, “Every group you can think of, from Los Angeles to New York City to international groups, seems to want to be in Dallas.”

The pandemic spurred many Americans to move to places like Miami And San Antoniowhere the weather was warmer and Covid restrictions loosened.

No city has benefited more from this shift than Dallas. From April 2020 to July 2021, the Dallas-Fort Worth area gained about 122,000 new residents, more than any other metropolitan area in the country, according to Census data. Some demographers predict that by the 2030s, Dallas — now the largest metropolitan area in Texas — Chicago could replace as the fourth largest metro area in the country.

Where do those people go for fun? The Dallas-Fort Worth region has no beaches, mountains, or wonders of the world, but it does have about 15,000 dining options. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the average Dallas household will spend a higher proportion of its income on dining out in 2022 than households in New York, Miami or San Francisco.

Like any major city, Dallas has its share of lack – 17.7 percent of the population lives in poverty – and economic inequality. The area is home to 92,300 millionaires and 18 billionaires, according to a Report 2022 from Henley & Partners, a London investment firm, which ranked Dallas as the 18th richest city in the world. Several Fortune 500 companies, including AT&T and American Airlines, are headquartered in the area.

“You have no idea how fast spending is happening in that market,” says Julie Macklowe, the founder of the Macklowe American Single Malt Whisky, which retails for $350 to $400 a shot in numerous restaurants in Dallas. “It’s like the American version of Dubai.”

These luxury chains cater to the city’s ultra-rich – and those who want to spend an evening living like them. The Las Vegas-based restaurant group Blue + employees recently opened Crown Block in the towering Reunion Tower in Dallas, where the seafood tower costs $230. The place had approx 10,000 reservations before it even released a menu.

The three-month-old Dallas branch of La Neta Cocina y Lounge, originally from Las Vegas, offers a $95 lobster taco served in a cheese-stuffed tortilla.

Ryan Labbe, owner of the restaurants, has high hopes for Dallas, where—unlike Las Vegas—a meal isn’t just a pit stop on the way to a show or a club.

“Dinner in Dallas is your night,” he said.

In Dallas, these companies have also found manageable operating costs. There is no state or local income tax. Rents are cheaper and ingredients cost less than many other major cities, says Matt Winn, a partner in and the chief development officer of the Chicago-based Maple Hospitality Groupwith two restaurants in Dallas – Monarch And Kessaku – and has plans to open a third, Maple & Ash. It was easier to hire workers, he said, and sell extravagant dishes.

At Monarch, “we have a whole king crab that serves eight people and costs $1,000,” Mr. Winn said. Diners in Dallas “will show up and spend that.”

In a city whose food culture has often been overshadowed Houston‘s various cuisines and Austin‘s array of distinctive independent restaurants, many locals love the attention.

“Two Ritz-Carltons are being built here,” said George White, a retired IT salesperson who often dines out. “Things happen.”

But a smashing food culture isn’t necessarily interesting, said Brian Reinhart, the restaurant critic at D Magazine, who recently published a list of the city’s 50 best restaurants – and deliberately left out the out-of-town restaurant chains.

“As we move into a world where the best food is as chain-like as the most basic fast food,” he said, “it’s going to be harder for Dallas to maintain any sort of distinction or culinary character.”

Restaurant chains have traditionally been part of the city’s identity, albeit more cheaply: Chili’s, On the border Mexican Grill & Cantina And 7-Eleven all started here. The proliferation of these businesses damages the image of the local food culture, said Mark Masinter, the founder of Open Real Estate Advisorsthat rents real estate to restaurants in Dallas.

But in recent years, many of the city’s independent restaurants have thrived and garnered national praise. Bon Appétit chose Dallas as his restaurant city of the year in 2019. Other publications have mentioned Petra and the Beast And Roots southern table are among the best in the country. (The Times included Roots in its list of favorite American restaurants for 2021.)

Sam Romano, who runs the local steakhouse Nick & Sam, said the influx of out-of-town restaurant groups will further raise Dallas’ profile. “With restaurants comes prestige,” he said, referring to Major Food Group’s decision to open a satellite of Carbone, one of only four in the United States. “That says something about Dallas.”

A few years ago, Dallas wasn’t even on the radar of New York restaurateur Eugene Remm. At the encouragement of a colleague, he visited in 2021 and was surprised to find dining rooms packed every night of the week.

“If you can find restaurants that are busy on Mondays and Tuesdays and restaurants in a close two-mile radius that can do $17 million, $22 million, there aren’t more than 10 markets that can justify that kind of spending on a regular basis, ” he said. “That makes it special.”

Next year he plans to open a branch of Catchan upscale seafood and steak restaurant, in the city’s fast-growing Uptown neighborhood.

He once associated Dallas with “George Bush and cowboy hats,” he said, but found it more like New York. “People go to membership clubs and have the same Dior store and the same Gucci store and everything the same.”

Not every national restaurant group succeeds here. The chef Tom Colicchio closed his Craft’s Dallas location in 2012. Il Mulinoan Italian import from New York City, Closed in 2006 after only two years in business.

Today, diners in Dallas are more cosmopolitan, said Candace Nelson, who opened a location of the Sprinkles cupcake shop in 2007, followed by a branch of the restaurant in Los Angeles Pizza in 2022. “They are excited when a concept from their many travels chooses their city to come to.”

On a recent Friday evening at Carbone, that excitement was palpable among the diners. Throughout the evening, customers poured out of Cadillac Escalades in stilettos and suits. Servers in crimson uniforms whizzed through the restaurant with $600 bottles of Burgundy and slabs of chocolate cake covered in edible gold.

“The people who work here call them captains, and they have the outfits,” said Nav Singh, who works in real estate and spent money celebrating his birthday in Carbone. “They make an effort. At a mom-and-pop store, it might be a white shirt, black pants. Compared to the average restaurant in Dallas, he said, “This is more elevated.”

But the boom in out-of-town restaurants has not come without casualties for the home side.

In 2021, Julian Barsotti, a longtime owner of a Dallas restaurant called Carbone’s, sued Carbone for copyright infringement. But it was Mr. Barsotti who finished changing the name of his restaurant, after making a deal with Major Food Group.

“In the end, if the name meant that much to them, I was happy to compromise,” said Mr Barsotti, who said he could not reveal the terms of the deal.

Erin Willis, who recently closed her French restaurant, RM 12:20 Bistro, in East Dallas, said the big restaurant groups were partly to blame.

“These big companies that now own all the restaurants can afford more advertising, they have deeper pockets, they’re glitzier,” she said. “It puts the little places like myself in the background, and we can’t survive.”

The outside groups also weaken the city’s culinary diversity, she said.

“Dallas has so much ethnic food to offer, but what the business side is doing is bringing so much of the same to the metroplex,” she said. “There is no variety. It takes out the people who are trying to stay true to their culture.”

Teiichi Sakurai runs the downtown Japanese restaurant Tei Ana short drive from two nationally known sushi restaurants, No And Uchiwho came from other cities. But Mr. Sakurai said his business has not been affected by the competition.

“Nobu, they have a lot more European dishes, with Japanese carpaccio style fish,” he said. “We do handmade soba.”

And Dallas guys are loyal, he said. “We’ve had regular customers for 25 years.” National groups come and go, he said. “They don’t remember names.”

Regino Rojas, who serves dishes from his native Michoacán, Mexico in his restaurants, Revolver taco lounge And Revolver Gastro Cantina, said luxury chains more focused on curating an atmosphere than serving unique foods. His clientele, he said, is different.

Additionally, said Mr. Romano of Nick & Sam’s, Dallas is only getting denser and bigger as new developments expand the metro area’s footprint. If restaurant groups want to settle here, “we have the space and the people to do so.”

Is there such a thing as too many dining options?

“I don’t think there are enough left,” he said.
