More from TMZ:


Some of those hits included the songs 'Red Solo Cup' and 'I Don't Wanna Talk About Me', as well as 'Courtesy of the Red, White, and Blue', his angry and patriotic post-9/11 tune that caused some controversy after news anchor Peter Jennings asked him to 'soften' the lyrics for a performance on an ABC special. Keith refused, didn't perform on the special, and the controversy gave the song tremendous publicity. He also famously feuded with The Dixie Chicks (now known as The Chicks) over their political remarks regarding then-president George W. Bush.

Keith was born in Clinton, Oklahoma in 1961 and worked in the domestic oil field in the 1980s until it collapsed and left him penniless. That experience, he said, taught him the how to carefully guard his money.
