Toby Keith had just flown from Oklahoma to Nashville when Monday's tornado hit, killing 24 in his hometown of Moore. The singer returned to find the streets and businesses he'd known and frequented since he was a kid in tatters, and neighbors beginning the recovery process.

"As bad as it looks right now," Keith told 'TODAY' host Matt Lauer, "these people - they are so prepared for it ... they'll bounce back. Homes will start going up quick and they'll prepare for the next one." He explained how he grew up four blocks away from the worst of it and used to run to a grocery store -- now destroyed -- to buy baseball cards.

The singer -- who calls the state home -- couldn't offer many details, but said it would be televised and happen soon.

"We'll know more about it in the next 24 hours," Shelton told Billboard. "I'm hoping it will raise a lot of money. Obviously it will be televised and will happen really quickly." The 'Boys 'Round Here' singer grew up in Ada, Okla., 75 miles from Moore.

Kellie Pickler was the last to know she'd won Season 16 of 'Dancing With the Stars.' Host Tom Bergeron announced her as the winner, and partner Derek Hough began to celebrate with the live audience. Pickler didn't hear him, however. After a few brief moments of confusion she was brought in on the secret and began an emotional celebration.

The country singer may have wrapped up the competition on Monday night with a beautiful freestyle dance. Fans picked the routine for Tuesday's encore dance, so Hough and Pickler had a chance to perform the vulnerable and extremely difficult choreography one more time.
