Toby Keith to perform at Nobel Peace Prize concert
Oklahoma country music star Toby Keith will perform Dec. 11 at the Nobel Peace Prize in Oslo, Norway, organizers announced today.
According to CMT.com, actor-rapper Will Smith and his wife, actress Jada Pinkett Smith, will co-host the event, which also will feature performances by Wyclef Jean, Donna Summer, Puerto Rican singer Luis Fonsi and Mali musical duo Amadou & Mariam.
This year’s Nobel Peace Prize winner will be announced Oct. 9.
The award ceremony is set for Dec. 10. The concert will mark Keith’s second Oslo performance in less than a month. His schedule already included a Nov. 21 show in the city during his first-ever European tour, which will go to Scotland, England, Ireland, Denmark, Sweden, Finland and Norway.
Keith’s new album, “American Ride,” will be released Tuesday, and I spoke with him this week about the record and the busy fall and winter he has planned. Look for that interview next week.
