Now, fans of ABC’s The Bachelor can clamor to a watch party for a Houston-specific episode starring Clayton Echard and his Houston home, the C. Baldwin Hotel, on Monday January 31, at 7 pm.
The event will (natch) be held at the C. Baldwin (400 Dallas St.); those interested can RSVP here.
As Instagrammers are most likely aware, Echard posted up at the downtown hotel for the ep. Expect to see sites around town as Echard and the ladies venture around the city. Look for the Baldwin hotel and NRG Stadium to be prominently featured.
To that end, as the quipster Reality Steve notes, there may be a flag football game in the episode: “There are unconfirmed reports that Clayton’s women have been installed as 3 pt favorites against the Texans for tmrws group date. Should be a close one,” he noted back in October.
If Echard is familiar, that’s because he was first introduced as one of Michelle Young’s suitors in Season 18 of The Bachelorette. He won over the Minneapolis school teacher and even her middle school students, but was famously — and somewhat surprisingly — sent home.
Will Clayton find love in Houston? No telling, but it’s always nice to see H-Town landmarks on the national stage.
A$AP Rocky will perform at the Toyota Center in Houston on Saturday, June 20.
Fresh off an appearance as the musical guest on Saturday Night Live, rapper/aspiring actor A$AP Rocky will go on the road with his 2026 Don’t Be Dumb World Tour, which will include a stop at the Toyota Center in Houston on Saturday, June 20.
The 42-date tour will start in Chicago on May 27, with the 25-city North American leg lasting through July 11.
There will be three Texas stops in the middle — Houston will follow Dallas on June 18 and Austin on June 19.
The tour is named after A$AP Rocky's new album, Don’t Be Dumb, his first full-length release in eight years.
Rocky's first two albums went to No. 1 on Billboard's overall 200, R&B/Hip Hop, and Rap charts, while 2018's Testing took a slight step back, still finishing in the top five of all three.
The rapper gained big notice as an actor in 2025, co-starring in two A24-produced films - Highest 2 Lowest, directed by Spike Lee, and the Golden Globe-winning If I Had Legs I’d Kick You.
Rocky's appearance on SNL included a cameo in a sketch alongside host Finn Wolfhard, as well as him performing “Punk Rocky” and a medley of the album’s title track and “Helicopter$."
Rocky also served as co-chair of the 2025 Met Gala, was announced as the creative director for Ray-Ban, and was appointed as Chanel’s new house ambassador.
