Country music singer Toby Keith, known for hits like “Red Solo Cup” and “Should Have Been a Cowboy,” has passed away at 62 after battling stomach cancer. His family announced his peaceful passing on Monday night. In December 2023, Keith performed his first headlining shows since revealing his diagnosis at Park MGM in Las Vegas.
Despite his health challenges, he remained optimistic, stating, “Through COVID and cancer, the old devil’s been after me a little bit. I’ve got him by the horns right now.” Keith had a remarkable career, playing for several U.S. presidents, including George W. Bush, Barack Obama, and Donald Trump. In 2021, he was honored with the National Medal of the Arts by Trump.
