Nice time news

:thumbsup: She is a legend for sure. Love the music she made with Linda Ronstadt and Emmylou Harris.

She's an example of how celebrities should be.

My kids have all benefitted from her Imagination Library, so I certainly have some admiration for her. A friend of mine works at her theme park, Dollywood. He's mentioned that she's quite a lovely and respectful person.

If I remember correctly she's turned down a nomination to the Hall of Fame several times.

It really made Joe lean, Joe lean, Joe lean, Joe leannnnnnn.... (Joke aside, this is one of my favorite songs. Especially the Miley's cover).

Oh, well I'm just repeating what I heard from a friend. *shrug* Guess I was wrong.

Nice lady and singer, and does a lot for the world through her charities. I was surprised to hear about her [Confederate-themed diner](https://www.nylon.com/articles/dolly-parton-dixie-stampede-civil-war-dinner-theater). It has changed formats, and is not (as?) offensive from other articles I've read, so she listened to criticism and is growing. Gotta respect that, too. I wish her well.

That's totally on brand. She's a class act. I don't expect her to be perfect, but she always seems to want to do right by the world - going out of her way to. I admire that about her immensely.

And the story behind it[^] is so much Dolly Parton... truly an icon.

It took me a couple of seconds.

If you know her life history, especially early on, she was made of very tough stuff. Class act indeed.

Wait - you mean the actress from that one episode of "The Orville"[^] is going to start a music career? :laugh:

So you have some freedom of speech, but it doesn't go that far ...

This. I don't mind some country music, but TBH there's only so much of her albums I can take. That being said, I would NOT let anyone say a single bad word about her. As a human being, she's what a lot of people should aspire to be.

If you were on the side of the road, Dolly Parton would stop and help change your tire. Same for Keneau Reeves. They are both legendary, and they are humble. There is your nugget - be humble.

Are you kidding? I'm the most humble person I know!
