Someone asked her in an interview about all her wigs and heavy makeup and she replied, “Honey, it costs a lot of money to look this cheap.” Classic Dolly, master of self deprecating humor.

That’s one of my favorite Dolly quotes!

Look up Dolly in an Irish pub - she’s on vacation and people ask her to sing. The guitarist knows her songs and they do an unrehearsed impromptu concert in the pub. Amazing.

Dolly is the best. I have never heard a bad thing about her. Years ago Dolly was interviewed by Barbara Walters who for whatever reason was extremely condescending and disrespectful to Dolly. The way Dolly handled it is a masterful example of what a truly classy woman she is.

I watched that interview when it first aired all those years ago and it seemed that Barbara went into the interview thinking that she was a lot better than Dolly because Dolly was just a hillbilly who sang country music and of course people who were "sophisticated" didn't like country music, dahlin. "Dolly, (sniff, sniff) are you what WE would call a hillbilly?" and "Dolly, do you think you are a joke?" Barbara may have thought she was being "hard hitting" and showing off her journalistic skills. I thought she was being just downright rude and I was amazed that Dolly was able to keep her composure (and her smile) through the whole thing and Barbara came out of that interview looking small. Barbara tried to demean Dolly and Dolly just gave her a huge smile and cracked a joke and Barbara ended up demeaning herself. I NEVER liked Barbara Walters after that one interview and my respect for Dolly shot right up into the stratosphere.

Dolly was born in Tennessee. Loretta Lynn was born in Kentucky.

Dolly was talking about Keith, and then said she had a crush on Vince, but Amy (Grant) put a stop to that. She's a shameless flirt. There's a video of Vince and Dolly singing "My Kind of Woman/My Kind of Man" that is adorable. She sings, "you're my kind of man," and Vince goes, "I wish!"

Saw Dolly in the 80’s in concert. A man was trying to hand her flowers from the 1st row….she said “Honey you’ll need to reach a little higher because if I bend down any more you’ll have get the milk man to help me back up”

Look up Dolly Parton does stand up, it's not actual stand up, but several moments of her cracking jokes. Hysterical 😂

Dolly did a lot of extended live radio and TV in her early career, and she developed those skills of being able to keep the conversation going with the audience, if she makes a mistake, she just carries on, and she has a great sense of humor, so she cracks jokes a lot and often makes herself the target of the joke. "do you know why my waist and feet are so small? because things don't grow in the shade."

If you really like Dolly, watch the movie "Steel Magnolias" she is awesome. She's also a great actress.

She went to see him in the funeral home. That’s why he was smiling. He was all dressed up to go away. Away away.

She is “somethin else” gotta LOVE DOLLY!

His first line in song I will love you until I die and he did now he died he stopped loving her

Dolly also plays a mean Banjo

This is why everyone loves her and she is a living legend ! Always love your Dolly reactions !

Dolly has some of the funniest stories. Some true. Some not. But they are so funny you might laugh hard and pee a little 😂. There's the story about a bear. And one about an older gentleman who just sat down and asked if he could eat with her and her husband. You should look them up. Kenny Rodgers said if she thinks it she says it. 😊

Just like you said, she can do ANYTHING…amazing actress as well

Dolly is anointed

She can sing anybody's stuff

Interesting question - if you love someone, set them free, as Sting says (good song, interesting video) . But that doesn't guarantee YOUR happiness, sometimes doing the right thing doesn't turn out well for you. But it's still the right thing.

Beautiful, timeless song and marvelous performance.

My wife says you need read her book "My Life and Other Unfinished Business". It had my wife laughing out loud and choking.

Fabulous...and George Jones lives on forever in his music ❤

Always wanting you ! A song Merle Haggard wrote to Dolly when she kept spurning him!

9 to 5 is the theme song to the movie "9 to 5". You should give "Mule Skinner Blues" a shot a great Bluegrass song by Dolly

She is a very emotional singer/story teller, you need to listen to her sing “I will always love you” which she wrote in a weekend along with the song “Jolene”. One of my favorites is “me and little Andy”, or “he’s alive”, “coat of many colors”. She is 1 of 11 children and she grew up in the mountains where her amusement park is, she also started a literacy program that provides books to children all over the US free of charge. Just a great woman

Dollywood is my favoritest place in the world!! I was there just a couple weeks ago. Best thing ever? A BLT made with fried green tomatoes! Yummy 😋

Read the first sentence and when you hear they carried him away you will understand what happened to him. He followed his commitment to her.🎉

HOPE YOU READ THIS!! She is hilarious and always has been. I have tried 2 or maybe 3 times to tell you this story but I know you haven't seen it yet because I know you would have acknowledged it if you had seen it. This is my last try. Back in the 70s Dolly was on all the talk shows and she ALWAYS had some funny country wisdom. But this is the main one I remember. Phil Donahue asked her " With 12 siblings and parents in a 1 (or 2, can't remember) room house with no running water... how did you bathe in the winter?" Without thought she said, "Well we just washed down as far as possible and up as far as possible...Then we run the boys outside and washed possible."

See her movie Coat of Many Colors and see a little about her childhood.

She was talking at the beginning about Vince and then started joking about the whole thing saying "Amy put a stop to that". Amy Grant is Vince's wife.

Check out Dolly's version of "House of the Rising Sun" in a red dress in a smoky bar environment.

You need to react to Tony Jackson. He is a fantastic black country singer...and very handsome 😍 I live in Nashville and first heard him live at the Opry. My favorite is "The Grand Tour". Its a cover of George Jones

She genuinely seems like one of the funest people to ever be around.

I would have lost my s..t if I could see Dolly and Vince together..not a huge fan of Keith but ... hell yeah.. I would have been in heaven

She established Dolly Wood to give employment to the people in her mountain world

Goerge was one of Vince's heroes

For a really interesting bit of Dolly's background, check out "Dolly Parton shares the origin story of her biggest assets.'

Great reaction! I recommend When I get Where I am Going(Official Video) with Dolly Parton and Brad Paisley coupled with I Saw God Today with George Strait…2 memorable, poignant and thought provoking songs with great messages

Something may not know and did not pick up on. Vince Gills wife is Amy Grant, the Christian singer. When Dolly said she had a crush on Vince, Amy put a stop to that.

Hey Britt a song you need to listen to is Delta Dawn by Tanya Tucker you will enjoy.

Check out Ghost Chickens in the sky by Leroy Troy

When George was with Tammy, he was a alcoholic and he was known to be kind of rough on her and she couldn’t deal with it and then whenever he was able to kick his alcoholism, he had a lot of time to look back because he always loved her and New done wrongI think he had a probably had a hard time with that

I think George had Tammy Wynette in mind when he recorded this 🤔

George went through a horrible time with drugs and alcohol, both; at the end of the marriage and after the divorce. He was an absolute mess for several years. I think that's when he learned who his real friends we're. It was a big deal when he finally decided to get sober, and was able to start performing again.

He stopped loving her because he passed away.

Think she was talking bout George Jones...some tribute

George Jones one woman man give it a try fun song

He died from loneliness

How creepy would that be to have him smiling?

He was smiling because he was fixed up in the coffin 😑

I feel u missed the true meaning of what it was about hun.( Some others have done the same.) He stopped loving her today because he had died.? Putting wreath on door is a sign or custom In south an what people did when someone died..So they carried him away to be buried. Please listen again now!

He agonized and drank the years away, sometimes going half crazy. I can just see him slinging an open bottle of booze around in the drive way.
