    Star Gazing

    The 5 best places in Dallas to spot a celebrity

    Jennifer Chininis
    Mar 1, 2013 | 4:51 pm

    Here in Dallas, our brand of celebrity generally involves sports figures and chefs, and we spot them around town as they go about their business. We know that Troy Aikman frequents Mi Cocina in Highland Park Village and Dirk Nowitzki dines at Suze. Oh, and Tony Romo got engaged at Five Sixty by Wolfgang Puck.

    But where in Dallas might you run into a bonafide celebrity as they cruise through the city? Well, we took out the guesswork.

    Rosewood Mansion on Turtle Creek
    No surprise that the finest hotel in Dallas, winner of so many national accolades, attracts an A-list clientele. It doesn’t hurt that this actual mansion also sits a bit off the beaten bath, yet it’s close to everything that matters. Among the rich and famous who have slept in these sheets: George Clooney, Hugh Jackman, Hilary Swank, Rod Stewart, Jay-Z, Cindy Crawford, Robert Duvall, Ryan Seacrest, Usher and Billy Joel. We bet they also partook in Bruno Davaillon’s heralded French-meets-Texas haute cuisine.

    Al Biernat’s
    Al Biernat is the consummate host. And not just for the local heavies who wheel and deal over red wine and steaks at the longtime Oak Lawn favorite that bears his name. Biernat takes pride in luring in boldface names like Charles Barkley, Will Ferrell, Zach Galifianakis and Danny Glover. If you need more proof, just look at all the signed celebrity photographs plastered on the walls.

    Rosewood Crescent Hotel
    The Mansion’s sexy sister property also receives regular national attention for its luxurious rooms, stellar service and first-class spa. So, if you’re hoping to spot Josh Duhamel, Jennifer Aniston, Julianne Hough, Adam Sandler, Sophia Vegara, Jennifer Lopez or Kobe Bryant, perhaps you should start staking out this swank Uptown hotel. With Nobu and Palomino — a favorite of short-lived Dallas couple Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom — in the same complex, the Crescent is a no-brainer for a celeb sighting.

    Forty Five Ten
    Brian Bolke’s temple of style attracts the most well-heeled fashionistas in Dallas. Celebrities also love to browse the racks filled with designer names such as Stella McCartney, Balenciaga, Lanvin and Jean Paul Gaultier. Among the stars spotted here: Martha Stewart, Steven Tyler, Janet Jackson, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, Erykah Badu, Linda Gray, Jordana Brewster, Jessica Simpson and Angie Harmon. Plus we have spied former First Lady Laura Bush and her fellow lunching ladies at the T Room.

    Village Marquee Texas Grill & Bar
    This restaurant adjoining the Highland Park Village Theatre may have lost Top Chef Tre Wilcox, but it gained another in Andre Natera. Besides, the address alone is enough to lure in the likes of local celebrities like Laura and George W. Bush, Mike Modano and Ross Perot. But we’d take a seat at the bar in the hopes of laying eyes on Giada de Laurentiis, Hannah Storm, Adam Richman, Jon Bon Jovi, Owen Wilson or Dallas star Linda Gray.

    Angie Harmon is a fan of Forty Five Ten.

    population report

    Booming Dallas suburb was the fastest-growing city in the U.S. in 2024

    Dallas' population has grown to nealry 1.33 million residents.

    The Dallas suburb of Princeton grew faster than any other city in the United States in 2024, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.

    The new population report said Princeton's population has more than doubled in the last five years. The city saw a dramatic growth rate of 30.6 percent from July 2023 to July 2024, now boasting a population of just over 37,000 residents. The suburb is located 42 miles northeast from downtown Dallas.

    The report also revealed Dallas retained its No. 9 spot on the list of the 15 most populous cities in the U.S. Dallas gained more than 23,000 residents during the one-year period, bringing the city's population to 1,326,087 people in 2024.

    Elsewhere across North Texas, Fort Worth surpassed 1 million residents and eclipsed Austin as the 11th largest city in the nation. Fort Worth had the fifth-highest numeric increase in population last year, 23,442 residents, to bring the city's total population to 1,008,106 residents.

    Houston and San Antonio were the only Texas cities to have higher numerical growth rates than Fort Worth. Houston gained 43,217 residents – the second-highest increase nationwide – while San Antonio ranked No. 4 in growth with an additional 23,945 residents.

    Austin has yet to surpass the 1 million population threshold and has a population of 993,588 residents, the report says. The city now ranks 13th on the list of most populous U.S. cities after ranking 11th in 2024.

    Sandwiched between No. 11-Fort Worth and No. 13-Austin is San Jose, California, whose population of 997,368 puts it in the 12-largest spot.

    Fastest growing U.S. cities
    Six additional Texas cities made the list of fastest-growing U.S. cities, with several in the DFW Metroplex:

    • Fulshear, near Houston (No. 2) with 26.7 percent growth (54,629 total population)
    • Celina (No. 4) with 18.2 percent growth (51,661 total population)
    • Anna (No. 5) with 14.6 percent growth (31,986 total population)
    • Fate (No. 8) with 11.4 percent growth (27,467 total population)
    • Melissa (No. 11) with 10 percent growth (26,194 total population)
    • Hutto, near Austin (No. 13) with 9.4 percent growth (42,661 total population)
    The Austin suburb of Georgetown's growth has continued to slow since 2023, and it no longer appears in the list of fastest-growing cities. However, it did surpass 100,000 residents in 2024.

    San Angelo, a small city in West Texas, also surpassed the 100,000-population threshold.

    Most populous U.S. cities in 2024
    New York City maintained its stronghold as the biggest in America in 2024, boasting a population of nearly 8.5 million residents. Los Angeles and Chicago also retained second and third place, with respective populations of nearly 3.88 million and more than 2.7 million residents.

    "Cities in the Northeast that had experienced population declines in 2023 are now experiencing significant population growth, on average," said Crystal Delbé, a statistician in the Census Bureau’s Population Division. "In fact, cities of all sizes, in all regions, showed faster growth and larger gains than in 2023, except for small cities in the South, whose average population growth rate remained the same."

    The 15 populous U.S. cities as of July 1, 2024 were:

    • No. 1 – New York, New York (8.48 million)
    • No. 2 – Los Angeles, California (3.88 million)
    • No. 3 – Chicago, Illinois (2.72 million)
    • No. 4 – Houston, Texas (2.39 million)
    • No. 5 – Phoenix, Arizona (1.67 million)
    • No. 6 – Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (1.57 million)
    • No. 7 – San Antonio, Texas (1.53 million)
    • No. 8 – San Diego, California (1.4 million)
    • No. 9 – Dallas, Texas (1.33 million)
    • No. 10 – Jacksonville, Florida (1 million)
    • No. 11 – Fort Worth, Texas (1 million)
    • No. 12 – San Jose, California (997,368)
    • No. 13 – Austin, Texas (993,588)
    • No. 14 – Charlotte, North Carolina (943,476)
    • No. 15 – Columbus, Ohio (933,263)
