4 weeks ago Krystal Keith will admit she's a daddy's girl in many ways, but the 'Daddy Dance With Me' singer is far more accommodating when it comes to the silly, sometimes inappropriate questions that fans really want to know. Perhaps we were just too afraid to ask Toby Keith about destroying his daughter's rap CDs. Krystal filled us in on that, her worst grounding, her opinion of the Dixie Chicks prior to 2003 and much more in this round of 60 Seconds With.

It was up to her to do the welding and flame-throwing during the clip's dramatic final scene. It wouldn't be accurate to call the singer an expert necessarily. OK, she had no idea what she was doing.
4 weeks ago Tate Stevens says he's had six or seven days off since Dec. 20, 2012, the day he won the second season of 'X Factor' on Fox. That includes a break for Christmas.
