Who are late country singer Toby Keith's daughters Krystal and Shelley?
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'.
But what do we know about the late country star's daughters, Krystal and Shelley? Shelley Covel Rowland
Born in October 1980, Shelley Covel Rowland is Lucus' daughter from a previous relationship, who Keith adopted when she was three.
She and her siblings were at the CMT Music Awards last April, when their father was honoured for his contribution to the music industry.

The dark side of cute designer cats like Taylor Swift's Scottish Fold
Cute cats have become social media stars as of late, with many people – celebrities included – showing off their felines with photos and videos that have received millions of hits. Pop queen Taylor Swift's round-headed, big-eyed cat, a Scottish Fold, is a celebrity in its own right, and model and actress Claudia Schiffer brought her own Scottish Fold to the premiere of a film – which also featured the feline. There is, however, a darker side to this trend. For example, animal welfare advocates say Scottish Folds, known for their folded ears, are the result of harmful breeding practices. Animals bred for specific traits, like big eyes, a flat nose or unique coat colours, can struggle with health problems for their entire lives. Some may have difficulty breathing or other physical problems. Taylor Swift with her Scottish Fold cat.

He says animals are being deliberately bred with genetic defects to achieve an extravagant or cute appearance, even though the health consequences for the animals have been known for decades.

How US star Barbara Walters opened the door for women in television
Barbara Walters became a star on US network NBC's Today in the early 1960s, raising the stature of the morning franchise. She opened doors for women as a network anchor and turned newsmaker interviews into major television events – 74 million tuned into her interview with White House intern Monica Lewinsky, whose affair with Bill Clinton ended his presidency. She also created one of American daytime TV's longest-running hits with The View, which evolved into a major forum for the country's political discourse. 'The audience size that Barbara was able to capture and harness is unmatched in today's world,' says Jackie Jesko, director of the new documentary Barbara Walters: Tell Me Everything, debuting on Hulu after its premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival earlier this month. 'Everything she did sort of made a difference.' Play Jesko's feature – produced by Imagine Documentaries and ABC News Studios – is the first in-depth look into Walters' storied career. The film also serves as a sweeping historical review of the decades-long dominance of network news that made figures such as Walters a gatekeeper of the culture, as Jesko describes her.
