The annual Cowboys halftime entertainment segment, officially titled the Salvation Army Red Kettle Kickoff Halftime Show, puts a spotlight on the needs of millions during the holiday season and beyond \u2014 with the Red Kettle Campaign raising more than $3.4 billion over the past three decades. Donations provide assistance to those in need in the community in which they’re given. Information about giving help or getting help is available at SalvationArmyUSA.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“It’s the 30th anniversary. You’ve gotta take the bull by the horns,” Lambert \u2014 who released her 10th solo studio album,Crisco, in early October \u2014 says in the promo spot seen below that was released Sunday (Oct. 25), riding in to AT&T Stadium and revealing the halftime performance news.<\/p>\n

In a press statement also released on Sunday, Lambert adds, “There’s something special about how music brings people together, especially when it’s to spread joy and hope to families who need it most. The Salvation Army and the Dallas Cowboys have built an incredible tradition with the Red Kettle Kickoff, and I can’t wait to be back home in Texas this Thanksgiving to help carry it forward.”<\/p>\n

Lambert’s Crisco album debuted at No. 4 on Billboard’s\u00a0Top Country Albums<\/a>\u00a0following its Oct. 2 release, continuing the singer’s unbroken run of 11 top 10s on the chart.<\/p>\n

“The Red Kettle Kickoff has become one of the Dallas Cowboys’ proudest traditions and one my family and our entire organization look forward to every Thanksgiving,” says Charlotte Jones, chief brand officer\/co-owner of the Dallas Cowboys and former national advisory board chairman for The Salvation Army. “For 30 years, incredible artists have appeared on our halftime stage to help The Salvation Army bring hope to millions of people in need. We’re grateful to Miranda Lambert for joining that legacy and helping us continue this meaningful tradition.”<\/p>\n

Past performers to headline the team’s Thanksgiving game halftime show include the late Dolly Parton, who memorably came out on the stadium field in a Cowboys cheerleaders outfit in 2023. Reba McEntire was the inaugural star to headline the show in 1997. Over the years, Destiny’s Child, Carrie Underwood, the Jonas Brothers, Selena Gomez, Lainey Wilson and Post Malone were also among the artists leading the halftime entertainment for the Cowboys.<\/p>\n
