American country singer Toby Keith is set to perform in Riyadh on Saturday alongside Saudi's very own lute player Rabeh Saqer in a free event, which will only be open to male audience.
The "local meets international" music lineup is all part of the welcoming program for U.S. President Donald Trump during his visit to the kingdom, in what is his first official overseas trip since taking office.
Trump will be taking part in the "Arab Islamic American Summit" with leaders of more than 20 Muslim-majority countries, where he is set to deliver a speech on "radical Islam" during the summit.
Keith is known for his top-performing songs that include "Whiskey Girl" and "Beers For My Horses" ... and it seems like the internet is having quite the field day with the news.
"Only thing missing is a dance-off between Madonna and Fifi Abdou"
Warning: "This is not The Onion"
Some (non Toby Keith fans) actually think women are better off ...
Trump has continuously called for a Muslim ban - blocking residents from several Muslim-majority countries from entering the U.S. - and has explicitly expressed concern over a (non-existent) "Muslim problem" with statements that include "Islam hates us."
But, it seems as though the president loves certain types of Muslims more than others.
Saudi Arabia's effort to enhance cultural and entertainment opportunities is an integral part of Vision 2030
The kingdom's efforts to boost entertainment is at the core of the kingdom's Vision 2030, an initiative that has been championed by Deputy Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.
Toby Keith's performance is yet another step towards change. But, it's definitely not the first for the kingdom this year.
In early January, Amr al-Madani, head of the kingdom's General Authority for Entertainment, said concerts and cinemas would come to the kingdom in 2017.
In January, Saudi Arabia hosted its first major concerts in seven years: a jazz performance in Riyadh - the first in the city in 25 years - and a concert by Saudi singer Mohammed Abdo in Jeddah, marking the city's first musical performance in seven years.
Riyadh also held another concert earlier this month, featuring Saudi singers Rabeh Saqer and Khalid Abdulrahman.
