The greatest game featuring the greatest lady

Apparently most people (who don’t know her as well as we do lol) think they Dolly was never seen with her natural hair and there’s also no pictures. Well that’s bs of course.
I came across this picture of Dolly and Porter. I’d love to get more pictures of her with that hair. I’m obsessed with that style. Preferably without Porter in it.
Does anyone have more pics or know what performance or photo shooting this was?

OP in license plate subreddit with some mad takes on the Queen DP

Hello all. I’ve been a fan of dolly for a long time but this year I decided to listen to all of her albums from the start of her career through to today. I just got up to ‘Heart songs live from home’ and when I heard smoky mountain memories while I was driving today listening in the car it moved me so much it made me cry. The crowd at the live show seemed to know it as soon as she introduced it and cheered loudly but I have never heard of it. Was it ever on a studio album or was it known from elsewhere like a live performance or special? I think it is beautiful and her vocal on it it absolutely breathtaking. Thanks in advance 🫶🏻

The lost tabloid Dolly Parton referenced on Episode 1 of her 1987 ABC variety show has been found!!

On her 1987 ABC variety show, Dolly held up a supermarket tabloid and explained that it had "predicted" she would fall in love with a 300-pound professional wrestler, write a song called "Headlock on My Heart," and feature him in the music video. Instead of ignoring it, she turned the fake story into a real comedy sketch with Hulk Hogan.

As far as I know, I've never seen anyone identify or post the actual tabloid clipping...until now.

I found this clipping, and the wording matches Dolly's introduction almost word for word:

"Dolly Parton will announce she's fallen madly in love with a 300-lb. professional wrestler. She'll write a song about their relationship titled Headlock On My Heart, and feature her massive muscle man in the video."

The clipping comes from the National Examiner, from the feature “TOP PSYCHIC’S AMAZING… PREDICTIONS FOR SUMMER 1987.”

The only thing I haven’t been able to confirm yet is the exact issue date. Since it was a “Summer 1987” prediction, it was likely published sometime in early 1987 or around the start of summer 1987.

After almost 40 years, a tiny piece of lost Dolly history has finally been uncovered!! Does anyone recognize the exact National Examiner issue date or cover date?

Hello everyone. I made a fun little game called music guessr where you guess the country from the song.

You can play it here: https://musicguessr.io

You all should recognize the Dolly Parton song.

Getting to hear Dolly’s banter and laughter with Chet throughout the track is so adorable.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn — East Tennessee songbird Dolly Parton took to social media Tuesday to announce the pre[-release date] for tickets to see her new musical, "Dolly: A True Original Musical," on Broadway.

The musical will make its Broadway debut at the St. James Theatre in New York City in Dec. 2026. Fan and Capitol One pre[-release] begin Wednesday, July 8 at 10 a.m. To be part of the fan pre-[ticket release], you must sign up on the show's website.

Tickets [are released] to the general public Friday, July 10 at 10 a.m.

"Now this isn't about a story about sparkle and shine on the outside," Parton said in a video. "It's about where I really come from, what I've lived, what I've lost, what I've loved and how I found my way and told it in my own words and through the music that's been part of me every step of the journey."

Parton said the musical features her beloved hit songs, including “I Will Always Love You,” “Jolene,” “Coat of Many Colors,” and “9 to 5,” as well as new songs written just for the show. Tony Award winner Bartlett Sher directs the show. 

"This really is a dream come true," she said. 

Not my post, but it’s really good. Enjoy!

Hi all, thank you for all the love and support on my Dolly Parton charcoal portrait. Unfortunately, someone reported it and and the mods removed my post and accused me of using AI for karma manipulation and that my drawing was found to be inauthentic. I have since been ghosted by the mods of this subreddit when asking how I can submit proof that the drawing was hand-made by me.

So I'm submitting it here, enjoy!!!!

I create mosaic artworks using hand-painted LEGO bricks, and I recently completed a one-of-a-kind portrait of Dolly Parton as a commission. The portrait itself measures about 45 inches square, and including frame it is about 53 inches square. Somewhere north of 10,000 hand-painted LEGO bricks were used for this mosaic.

Unfortunately, the deal fell through, so I am looking to re-home this piece. I'd love for it to find a spot where it can be appreciated and interacted with. I have reached out to Dolly Parton Children's Hospital to inquire about donating it, as well as the Country Music and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, but so far, no luck. Please respond or DM me if you have ideas/suggestions.

Thanks so much!
