    Pop stars Kesha and Scissor Sisters slice into Houston on new summer tour

    Pop singer Kesha will hit the road in 2025 with the boldly-titled The Tits Out Tour, the biggest live run of her career. The tour will come to The Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion in The Woodlands on Thursday, July 10.

    Comprised of 25 dates in North America, the tour will start in West Valley City, Utah on July 1, lasting a little over a month until the final date on August 10 in Tampa, Florida.

    In addition to Houston, Kesha will play in Dallas on July 8. She'll be joined by the recently-reunited Scissor Sisters on all dates, as well as Slayyyter for the two Texas dates.

    The tour will be in support of her upcoming new album, . (PERIOD), set for release on July 4. This will be the singer's sixth overall album, and the first on her new independent music label, Kesha Records.

    To underscore the title of the tour, Kesha released a politically provocative statement:

    “The most political thing we can do right now is love. Love ourselves and love each other,” Kesha said. “Americans need to have more safe, consensual sex. Our administration is so disembodied and disconnected. I’m going TITS OUT this summer to bring as much safety, fun, acceptance, love, connection, and celebration to this country because we are just as much the fabric of this FREE nation as anyone else. We will not be quiet, and we will fight through joy! I think it’s time to make LOVE, not content. LOVE, not anger. LOVE, not hatred, and love, not war."

    Additionally, she is teaming up with Feeld, "a dating app for the curious," as part of the tour "in order to bring our sexually liberated selves and give us a place to flirt, meet, connect, and dance."

    Fans can sign up now for access to presale tickets beginning Tuesday, April 8 at 10 am local time at keshaofficial.com and scissorsisters.com. Additional presales will run throughout the week.

    All remaining tickets will be available through a general onsale on Thursday, April 10 at 10 am local time. For complete tour details, go to keshaofficial.com/tour.

    Ninja Ramen will close at the end of December.

    Editor's note: The long Thanksgiving weekend is a perfect time to catch up on the week's headlines. Our most-read stories include news of a popular ramen shop's shutter, a Netflix foodie star coming to town, a roundup of holiday pop-up bars, and more. Need weekend plans? Our Weekend Event Planner can help.

    1. Houston ramen shop known for Asian whisky will shutter after 11 years. A ramen shop that’s been a favorite of Houston hospitality workers will soon serve its final bowl of noodles. Ninja Ramen will close at the end of December, owners Christopher Huang tells CultureMap.

    2. Beard Award-winning chef and family dish on their new Houston restaurant. On this week’s episode of “What’s Eric Eating,” James Beard Award-winning chef Hugo Ortega, his wife and business partner Tracy Vaught, and their daughter Sophia Ortega join CultureMap editor Eric Sandler to discuss H-Town Restaurant Group.

    3. Netflix foodie Phil Rosenthal brings tasty Texas tour to Houston. Somebody give Phil Rosenthal a few Houston lunch suggestions. The sitcom writer-turned-food personality just announced a whirlwind tour through Texas, including a stop at Houston's 713 Music Hall on January 24, 2026.

    4. 14 holiday pop-up bars serving over-the-top festive cheer in Houston. There’s so much more to a holiday bar pop-up than tossing a candy cane in a cocktail. We want shimmer, we want lights, we want tinsel — and Houston’s restaurants and bars are more than happy to impress. Here’s where to find the city’s most joyful holiday transformations.

    5. Emotional night uplifts mental health at UTHealth Houston's $1.8M gala. At a time when mental health is finally getting its long-overdue moment in the spotlight, more than 200 supporters gathered at the Thompson Hotel for UTHealth Houston’s 2025 Mission in Action gala — an evening as elegant as it was emotionally resonant.
