Even though Patrick Swayze was a Hollywood star and "the sexiest man alive" he never lost his Houston roots. His mom Patsy let us peek into the family album and friend Warner Roberts remembers.

Patrick Swayze lived by a motto: "Never work for money, only for passion." During a long and varied career, he delivered passionate performances in such hits as "Dirty Dancing," "Point Break," "Ghost," "Road House" and, most recently, the A&E drama, "The Beast." In September, he died after a valiant 20-month battle with pancreatic cancer. But he lives on through his screen presence and in our memories.
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.
