An absolute legend. Dolly Parton never forgot where she came from… and never stopped being grateful for the people who helped her along the way. Even after she made it big, she still showed up with that same smile, same humor, and pure class. She wrote a song just for Johnny Carson: “I have come a long way from the hills of Tennessee And I have worked hard to make the folks back home real proud of me Now everybody knows my name no matter where I go But I never really made it until the Johnny Carson show” That’s who she was. Talent for days. Heart even bigger. Rest in peace, Dolly.

"She's the prime example of what it means to be an American original."

She leaves behind an unmatched career spanning seven decades — timeless songs, unforgettable films, Dollywood, and the Imagination Library that has given millions of free books to children. Born into poverty in the Smoky Mountains, she never forgot where she came from and spent her life lifting others up with that same bright spirit. A true American original. Rest in peace, Dolly.

This was the LAST footage of Dolly Parton before her passing today at age 80. Just watched Dolly’s video from the Night Flight Expedition opening at Dollywood. She couldn’t make the trip. Doctors clipped her wings. Dizzy. Dehydrated. Sitting there in those sparkly butterfly wings, still smiling, still talking to her people like family. She said she’d keep everybody in the loop. Promised to see us down the road. Then she pushed the new ride anyway. That was her last public message. Today we found out she kept her word the hard way. Dolly Parton was 80. Born in a one-room cabin in the Smokies, raised on hard work and harder times, and somehow turned it into one of the purest American success stories we’ve ever seen. No scandal machine. No political lectures. Just songs that still hit, a theme park that employs thousands, and a heart that never got too big for the mountains she came from. She spent the last stretch of her life dealing with real health problems after years of putting her own needs second so she could care for Carl. She told us straight. No filters. No PR spin. Just Dolly. In a world full of manufactured celebrities and empty noise, she stayed real till the end. That’s rare. That’s the kind of toughness and grace that doesn’t come from Hollywood or the coasts. It comes from people who know what it means to work, to love hard, and to keep showing up even when the body starts saying no. Rest easy, Dolly. You kept the loop open just like you promised. We’ll see you down the road. Godspeed.

Dolly Parton told Tennessee years ago not to put a statue of her on the Capitol grounds while she was still here. “Perhaps after I’m gone,” she said, “if you feel I deserve it.” Now that time has come. She wasn’t just a country icon. She was one of the last figures almost everybody could love — humble roots, huge heart, unmatched talent, and a generosity that put books in millions of kids’ hands. There’s a push to name an airport after her. Dolly Parton International. That tracks. She spent her whole life lifting people up and sending them somewhere better. If President Trump went to the funeral and invited the living presidents to stand together for her, it would be one of the rare moments this country still knows how to honor someone who actually earned it. Rest easy, Dolly. Tennessee — and America — will remember.

The world lost a legend today… but East Tennessee lost one of our own. 💔 For every little mountain girl who was ever made to feel like her accent, her roots, or where she came from made her less — Dolly showed us different. She made the whole world know our mountains, and no matter how high she climbed, she never forgot the people back home. From one East Tennessee girl to another… thank you, Dolly. 🦋 You made us proud to say, “That’s where I’m from, too.” Rest easy, mountain girl. East Tennessee will never be the same. 🕊️

“That’s very touching to me, ’cause Mama and Daddy are both gone now. You just pulled at my heart there.” In 2009, Morley Safer surprised Dolly Parton on 60 Minutes with old footage of her singing and dancing with her parents. She hadn’t seen it in decades. Her voice caught. Then she smiled through it, the same way she always did. One of the most human moments she ever gave on camera.

Dolly Parton died today… and the most important thing she ever did had nothing to do with the stage. She just left us at 80. Watch this old clip. Dolly looks straight into the camera and says her daddy told her the Imagination Library was the most important thing she ever did. Not Jolene. Not the money. Not the blonde hair and the rhinestones. The books. He was the smartest man she ever knew… and he never learned to read. That kept him from chasing every dream he had. So she built a program that puts a free book in a kid’s hands every single month, started in her own little county and now reaches millions. No government program. No press conference. Just a country girl from the mountains who decided her kids and everybody else’s kids deserved better than what her daddy got. In a world full of screens, soft parenting, and empty noise, Dolly was quietly stacking real books on real porches. That’s the kind of legacy that actually lasts. Rest easy, Dolly. You did right by your daddy… and by every kid who ever needed a chance to dream.

We’ll Always Love You, Dolly 🤍 Some artists leave behind great songs. A very small number leave behind something bigger—a feeling that seems to belong to everyone who ever heard them. Dolly Parton was one of those rare people. She was born in the mountains of Tennessee in 1946, one of 12 children in a family that knew what it meant to have very little. From those humble beginnings, she built a career that would eventually span more than six decades, crossing country music, pop, film, television, business, and philanthropy. She became one of the most recognizable entertainers in the world, but somehow never seemed to lose the warmth of the woman who came from those mountains. Her songs became part of people's lives. “Jolene” gave a voice to jealousy and fear. “9 to 5” turned frustration into something catchy and unforgettable. And “I Will Always Love You,” a song Dolly wrote herself, would later become a worldwide phenomenon through Whitney Houston. But reducing Dolly Parton to her biggest hits would miss what made her special. She had an extraordinary ability to make enormous success feel personal. She could stand in front of thousands of people and still sound as though she were telling a story to one person sitting across the room. She could make people laugh at her jokes, cry over a song, and then remind them, almost casually, to be kind to one another. That combination of talent and warmth became her signature. Her career was filled with remarkable collaborations—with Porter Wagoner, Kenny Rogers, Linda Ronstadt, Emmylou Harris, and many others—but she never disappeared inside someone else's story. She remained unmistakably Dolly. And perhaps that is why her passing feels so difficult to accept. Dolly did not simply belong to one generation. Parents introduced her music to their children. Children who grew up hearing her songs later returned to them as adults. Her voice kept finding new listeners because the feelings inside her songs never really aged. She also understood that success meant little if it could not be shared. Through her philanthropy, including the Imagination Library, she helped put millions of books into children's hands. Her legacy was never limited to the stage. I think that is what people will miss most. Not only the voice. Not only the songs. But the feeling that Dolly Parton was somehow still there—smiling, telling a joke, picking up a guitar, reminding us that you could dream big without forgetting where you came from. In 2001, it was a dream to see her perform on Austin City Limits. Watching that performance now carries a different weight. We know we are looking at something that can never happen again. But perhaps music gives us one small gift in moments like this. The person leaves. The song stays. The voice remains in recordings, in memories, in the people who learned something from her, and in the generations that will discover her long after today. Dolly Parton gave the world an extraordinary amount of music. But she gave us something else, too: a reminder that talent can open doors, while kindness determines what you do after walking through them. We will miss you, Dolly. And yes, Dolly— we’ll always love you. 🤍

🔥DOLLY PARTON HAD TO PULL HER CAR OVER & ALMOST WEPT… the first time she heard “I Will Always Love You” by Whitney. She made around $10 million off Whitney Houston’s version of “I Will Always Love You” in the 90s. Most people would’ve bought a bigger house or a boat. She bought a whole strip mall in a Black neighborhood in Nashville instead. Off the beaten path. She said she did it because of Whitney… called it “the house that Whitney built.” Same woman who built Dollywood and started the Imagination Library. That program has sent out over 325 million free books to kids so they grow up loving to read. And when Hurricane Helene hit her people in East Tennessee… she put up $1 million of her own money and her companies matched it with another million. Quiet class. No big speeches needed.

“Jolene” was written by Dolly Parton and released in 1973 as the title track and lead single from her 13th studio album, Jolene (1974). The song’s story was inspired by two real people: the situation came from a young red-haired bank teller whom Parton believed had a crush on her husband, Carl Dean, while the name “Jolene” came from a young fan who asked Parton for an autograph. Parton has said she combined those two inspirations into one fictional character. The track became one of Parton’s signature songs, reaching No. 1 on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart and No. 60 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1974. It has since become one of the most covered songs in country music, with versions by artists including The White Stripes, Olivia Newton-John, Miley Cyrus and Pentatonix. Parton wrote “Jolene” and “I Will Always Love You” during the same songwriting session, and both songs became enduring classics.

They don’t make ‘em like they used to… I mean that sincerely. There is no artist alive today who will leave the legacy that Dolly Parton did. Most music today is slop, and even the “good” music is (mostly) devoid of real heart and soul, and it certainly won’t be remembered in 50+ years… Dolly released “Coat of Many Colors” in 1971. Take a couple minutes and watch this video. You listen to it today and you get the same goosebumps folks did when they heard it over 50 years ago. The same happy-sad pang in your gut. You actually feel something. You feel her story. Her love for her mom, and her mom’s love for her. When you listen to her sing you know it’s true. She opens up part of her soul and shares it. What an incredible gift she gave us all. She came from nothing and became one of the most iconic musicians that ever lived. She also gave back what she was given. Not because her agent told her it would be good PR or to virtue signal on Instagram, but because it was who she was. To bring such joy to the world through music is out of reach for almost all of us. But to raise people up through our actions is something we all can and should strive to do, even if we fall far short of Dolly. What a truly beautiful human and amazing life. Rest in peace, Dolly.

We lost a true treasure. Dolly Parton was probably the last person left in this country that almost every single one of us could still agree to love. Dolly didn't need a crown or a political office to gain that admiration. She did it through her music, her humanitarian efforts, and the mindset that if there's a need anywhere in the world, she would step up and fill those needs. She earned her place as one of our nation's greatest through her pure talent, stubborn grace, and unmatched kindness. She stuck to her guns and lived a life that we should all try to emulate. Her light and her spirit will live with us for generations to come. Thank you for everything you've done, Dolly.

Dolly Parton turned down Elvis Presley when his manager demanded 50% of the publishing rights to her song. "Elvis reached out and wanted to record it. Elvis's manager called Dolly with a condition: Elvis generally wouldn't record a song unless he received publishing rights, in this case, at least 50% of the publishing." "Dolly refused. That was incredibly difficult because having Elvis record your song in the '70s could transform a songwriter's career. Dolly later said she cried all night because she desperately wanted to hear Elvis sing it." "She considered the song one of the most valuable copyrights in her publishing company and wanted to preserve it for herself."

I’m deeply saddened by the passing of Dolly Parton. She has a heart of gold and a spirit that touched so many lives. She was a true woman of God, an incredible entertainer, and of course, one of the pillars of country music. Marie and I had the pleasure of having Dolly on our show, and what a pleasure it was. She had the most amazing way of making everyone in that studio feel like they were her best friend. I think it was that sweet Southern hospitality in her. Rest in peace, Dolly. What a beautiful life you lived, and what a gift you were to the world. Your name will be forever remembered by all. "We will always love you!" 🎶💜🪽

Matt Gaetz pays the late Dolly Parton a tribute on The Anchormen: GAETZ: “I have to give a tribute to the great Dolly Parton. Dolly Parton was more than an actress or a songwriter. She was a symbol of Southern excellence, and throughout time in America, frankly, the South has been denigrated. Put down. There was the belief that intelligence, business acumen, creativity, emerged from the Northeast or the West, but Dolly Parton showed that talent grows everywhere, even on a hillside in Tennessee where she made a name for herself in her small town that she never forgot with millions and millions of dollars in charitable donations. After amassing an incredible fortune, Dolly Parton has passed, but in in these times we live in such a cultural moment where, when an icon like Dolly Parton passes you almost get to re-enjoy some of their fantastic creations all over again. Dolly Parton's music is topping some of the iTunes downloads, and I know family members who are watching her movies again to re-enjoy all the magic that was Dolly Parton. But one moment stands out to me: It is when Barbara Walters gets the opportunity to interview Dolly Parton and instead of exploring that talent, majesty and Southern excellence, Barbara Walters tries to degrade the upbringing of Dolly Parton and she handled it masterfully.” WATCH NOW:

She was a symbol of Southern excellence, and throughout time in America, frankly, the South has been denigrated. Put down. There was the belief that intelligence, business acumen, creativity, emerged from the Northeast or the West, but Dolly Parton showed that talent grows everywhere, even on a hillside in Tennessee where she made a name for herself in her small town that she never forgot with millions and millions of dollars in charitable donations. After amassing an incredible fortune, Dolly Parton has passed, but in in these times we live in such a cultural moment where, when an icon like Dolly Parton passes you almost get to re-enjoy some of their fantastic creations all over again. Dolly Parton's music is topping some of the iTunes downloads, and I know family members who are watching her movies again to re-enjoy all the magic that was Dolly Parton. But one moment stands out to me: It is when Barbara Walters gets the opportunity to interview Dolly Parton and instead of exploring that talent, majesty and Southern excellence, Barbara Walters tries to degrade the upbringing of Dolly Parton and she handled it masterfully.” WATCH NOW:
