    The annual Jingle Ball Tour is coming to Dallas on November 29, with headliner Meghan Trainor and an appearance by '90s boy band the Backstreet Boys.

    Dallas will be the opening date on a 12-city tour that also includes Los Angeles, New York, and Chicago. The lineup varies by city. Unlike Los Angeles or New York, Dallas will not get Justin Bieber. The tour ends on December 18 in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

    Each year, iHeartMedia stations across the country host Jingle Ball concerts in select cities, with performances by the year's most iconic recording artists and emerging talent.

    "What started as a local holiday concert in New York over 20 years ago, has become a nationwide holiday music tour, radio broadcast, and CW Network telecast," says iHeart president John Sykes in a release.

    iHeart will broadcast the December 9 show in New York on iHeartRadio CHR stations and as a live video stream on CWTV.com and within the CW app, beginning at 8:30 pm ET. The event will also be featured in a TV special on The CW Network on December 15.

    Tickets range from $51 to $156 and go on sale on October 17. Here's the full lineup:

    Tom Cruise fulfills vow to eat BBQ in Dallas on Mission Impossible tour

    Tom Cruise in Dallas

    Movie star Tom Cruise promised he was going to eat BBQ in Dallas and he stood by that vow: While on a tour through Texas to promote his new filmMission: Impossible—The Final Reckoning, Cruise hit Pecan Lodge in Deep Ellum on May 22, where he was treated to a spread that included a specially-made sausage.

    Pecan Lodge is the perennial Dallas BBQ favorite that opened in Deep Ellum in 2014, known for its smoked brisket and "Hot Mess" loaded baked sweet potato. The restaurant's nods include being featured on Guy Fieri's Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives.

    The visit was no surprise to Pecan Lodge owner Justin Fourton, who shared in an interview that it had been discussed over a week beforehand.

    "You don't believe it at first, and up until today there was a part of me that was like "I don't know if this is gonna happen or not,'" Fourton said in an interview with WFAA. "They had a list of several places they were considering and he had got a couple of personal recommendations and finally made the choice to come to Pecan Lodge."

    Cruise's dining companions at the BBQ spot included the founders of Tribal All Day, the juice bar and cafe in Oak Cliff, who shared an Instagram post of a group posing with the actor inside Pecan Lodge.

    Cruise was spotted greeting fans as he left the restaurant in a video posted online.

    During his time in Dallas for Mission: Impossible, Cruise visited Dallas movie theaters including the IMAX at AMC NorthPark and the Cinemark on Webb Chapel Road. The official premiere for the film is May 23.

    San Antonio was the first stop on the actor's tour. He visited Military City on May 22, signing autographs at Joint Base San Antonio before heading to a packed 2 pm screening of Mission Impossible — The Final Reckoning at AMC Rivercenter.
