W ith six number one country hits, one platinum album,
four gold albums and nominations for both Grammy
and Country Music Association awards since his 1 1 )93
debut, achieving success should not worry Toby Keith.
In 1993, Keith released his first single. “Should’ve Been A
Cowboy,” skyrocketed to the top of the charts, catapulting his sel f-
titled debut album to platinum status. In the seven years since
then, Keith has released seven albums, the latest of which. Now
Do You Like Me Now, was released in November.
Bom “Toby Keith Covel” in Clinton, Okla., in 1951 to an oil
field roughneck, Keith knows the life he so often sings about.
“I’m in the writing mode all the time.” Keith said. “I just sit
and wait on inspiration, and it usually comes."
On his latest album, Keith tackles a wide variety of subjects,
such as self-confidence, divorce and memory repression.
In “When Love Fades,” Keith explores marriage relationships
gone awry.
“There’s a lot of people out there that just go through the mo
tions, can’t live without each other, but they’re not really in that
‘happy love’ anymore,” he said. “The marriage has just grown so
far apart, but they don’t do anything about it. Nobody broke the
promise yet, but at some point someone’s going to.”
In "I lello,” Keith shows his songwriting swagger in collabo
ration with Jim Femino.
“[T lello’ isj about a guy who took off and was try ing to make
an excuse up from Mexico, why he wasn’t coming home, and his
wife hung up.”
Today, Keith resides in Oklahoma City with his w ife and three

LAS VEGAS (AP) A judge an
nulled the made-for-TV marriage of mil
lionaire Rick Rockwell and Darva Conger,
who testified Wednesday she was not told
about her groom’s background before their
on-air wedding.
Rockwell, 42, selected Conger from
among 50 contestants on the Fox TV show
“Wlio Wants to Marry a Multimillionaire.”
They married on the spot and left for a
Caribbean honeymoon cruise.
Despite smash ratings, Fox canceled a
rebroadcast of the show after it was dis
closed that a former fiancee obtained a re
straining order against Rockwell in 1991,
saying he hit and threatened her. I le denies
the allegations.
“He was not honest and did not rep
resent those restraining orders,” Conger,
34. told Family Court Judge Steven F-
Jones Wednesday.
