Per NBC, a portion of ticket sales went to the Toby Keith Foundation’s OK Kids Korral, a zero-cost home for families of sick children, as well as Vanderbilt’s Monroe Carell Jr Children’s Hospital.
Keith and Tricia Lucus were married in 1984 and had three children: Shelley – Lucus’ first child who Keith adopted – Krystal and son Stelen. It was the famous singer’s family who kept him grounded, with Keith telling People magazine that “they all grew up with me being successful but they are not hooked on that part of the business”.
