    Adrienne Bailon and Israel Houghton’s Performance at this Year’s ESSENCE Festival Takes Flight

    After a year and a half, television host Adrienne Bailon and her husband, singer/songwriter Israel Houghton boarded their first flight. And where did they go? ESSENCE Festival of Culture, of course. And it was American Airlines that made it all happen.

    “I’m honestly so excited and grateful to be traveling again,” said Adrienne as she lounged in the beautiful American Airlines Admirals Club at JFK Airport in New York. Joined by Israel, they were flying to New Orleans, where they both took the stage to perform with his band, New Breed.

This year, we had another exciting talent line-up, curated programming and a new hybrid experience that directly touched the people of New Orleans and Louisiana while also further extending our reach, engagement and impact via enhanced digital, technology, and streaming capabilities to connect more of our community in the U.S. and across the diaspora,” said Latraviette Smith-Wilson, ESSENCE Chief Strategy & Engagement Officer.
