December 7, 2010/by Sarah Skates

Willie Nelson helped Virgin America airlines launch its new service to Dallas Fort-Worth International Airport (DFW). To celebrate, Virgin Group Founder Sir Richard Branson hosted a Texas-sized party in downtown Dallas at the Winspear Opera House.

Willie Nelson performs as Richard Branson boogies onstage with flight attendants.

Darius Rucker visited The Tonight Show with Jay Leno on Dec. 1 to perform his latest No. 1 Country Billboard hit, “Come Back Song.”

Following the performance, host Jay Leno (center) joined Rucker (L) and celebrity guest actor/comedian Jay Mohr (R) to close the show.
