Charles De Gaulle 484 Posted September 17, 2022 61 year old country star Toby Keith has had stomach cancer for a nearly a year now. And now he is too weak to travel https://countrynow.com/breaking-toby-keith-will-no-longer-appear-at-cancer-benefit-amid-tough-week/ According to Wikipedia he has sold over 40 million records which is quite a lot. Enough for me to say that despite his us centric fame he would very likely still get an obit over here. A good name for next year's deathlist. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RadGuy 1,614 Posted September 29, 2023 Performed at the People's Choice Country Awards tonight. Says he feels good today but calls his cancer battle a 'roller coaster.' Definitely looks ill, but not at death's door. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joey Russ 7,228 Posted December 13, 2023 Arguably John Wetton looked better in his final picture tbh. Tbf he’s still touring but I think he’s basically gonna tour till he dies cause he loves it 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jd24fan 78 Posted December 14, 2023 Toby looks worse than his friend Jimmy Buffett in his last few months, and Jimmy did look gaunt in some of his last photos. From what I've been following with the situation, Toby says he still plans to tour next year, but those cancer treatments take a toll on so many. I'm sure he'd love to perform even with the cancer, as that would take his mind off of the disease. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MrWonderful 481 Posted December 15, 2023 He kind of has that Randy Jackson look that Mr. Jackson had late last year (and arguably still has), but Jackson has made it to the end of the year, so I guess you never know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To be fair we don’t know if Randy Jackson actually has cancer or another fatal illness. We know Toby Keith has advanced cancer. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sean 6,329 Posted December 21, 2023 If a beloved figure says they are doing well against cancer usually they are fucked.If a despot says they are dying they will make 3 digits. 4 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
