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:

The late Dolly Parton once got an impersonator to explain to her how to sound like Dolly Parton… without her realizing who she was talking to. Wait for the end. 😭😂 The funniest part is how naturally Dolly plays along. Mary is confidently explaining how to sound like Dolly Parton, while unknowingly speaking to the real Dolly herself. Then Mary casually tells her, “I think that my accent’s better.” 😂 But the best part comes when Graham Norton finally reveals the truth. Mary needs to hear it twice before she can believe she’s actually been talking to Dolly. It’s a perfect example of Dolly’s sense of humor: she could have simply introduced herself, but instead she lets the impersonator make her case first.
