    Seriously, by the time you get to Dolly’s age, what is there to do but laugh at yourself – the alternative doesn’t bear thinking about

    Love me some Dolly

  2. geronimo says:

    One of the things I love about her is that she doesn’t feel the need to give her opinion left, right and centre (like so many other celebs do) about the economy, politics etc (love her foreign affairs remark.) and just sticks to what she’s best at, being herself and throwing out the odd playful barb at those who deserve it. Less is SO more. Class act, love her.

    And who cares whether she comes up with her quips on the spot or not, she still comes up with them and her delivery is always brilliant PLUS she’s dynamite in interviews.

  3. Syko says:

    Love her!

  4. boomchakaboom says:

    Love me some Dolly! The voice of an angel.

  5. Lauri says:

    Right on, Geronimo. I like my celebs for their talent, not their politics. I can’t tell you how many I just can no longer tolerate because of their arrogance and superior attitude! They alienate their fans!

    Dolly has never pretended to be anything that she isn’t. Gotta respect that.

  6. Tess says:

    She’s got heart, soul and humor all wrapped up in a delightful little package.

  7. Mairead says:

    I actually quite like it when celebs take up a social cause – we wouldn’t have some of Bob Dylan’s early works otherwise or some of Tom Petty’s wry social commentary. but I agree there’s a way of doing it without being sanctimonious. 😉

    That being said – I <3 teh Dolly :mrgreen:

  8. G. says:

    Love her.

  9. Alexis says:

    Love!

  10. Shane says:

    It’s easy to see why most people love easy going light hearted celebrities like Dolly Parton and hate gutter mouth trash talking hurtful celebrities like Joan Rivers and Sarah Silverman.

  11. geronimo says:

    It is actually possible to love Dolly AND Joan.

  12. NHchicky says:

    My favorite Dolly quote is: “My feet are so small because nothing grows in the shade.”

  13. Bodhi says:

    “People are always asking me in interviews, ‘What do you think of foreign affairs?’ I just say, ‘I’ve had a few.’”

    😆 😆 I friggen LOVE Dolly!

  14. I choose me says:

    I love to hear this woman laugh, speak and sing, not necessarily in that order.

    Dolly Parton for Pres indeed! 😀

  15. Missy says:

    Dolly’s o.k. with me.

  16. daisy424 says:

    “I think there have been enough boobs in the White House.”

    Is she priceless or what.

    Have been a fan for years, even went to Dollywood in TN. It is beautiful where she grew up.

    Remember how hysterical she was in ‘Nine to Five’?

    Nothing but love for you Dolly 😉

  17. Curly Fry says:

    I *heart* Dolly!

    I love someone who doesn’t take themselves seriously at all and is so incredibly comfortable just being themselves!

    Plus, growing up in NE Tennessee just a few counties over from where she’s from, you really get to hear all of the philantropy that she does in the area. She is responsible for all the tourism that now comes into the Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg area.

    Class act all the way!

  18. Codzilla says:

    I think her public persona (which I adore) sometimes overshadows the fact that she’s also a brilliant songwriter. “Jolene” is a classic and no one will ever convince me otherwise.

  19. Mary says:

    I have and always will love Dolly! I believe she comes up with her little comments on her own – she doesn’t know what questions she’ll be asked. I love how ‘real’ she is. She tells it like it is. She is an angel – she is one person that I would truly love to meet some day. She’s one classy, talented, and smart woman!!

  20. Lauri says:

    Ah, Jolene. What a wonderful song. She also wrote “I Will Always Love You” that Whitney Houston made so popular.

  21. Kaiser says:

    Love love love Dolly. She also has a good line about plastic surgery – That she’s been “sucked, plucked and tucked.”

  22. Snowblood says:

    Dolly Parton’s a true original, a special, rare bird she is. She’s wonderful!! She’s like nowadays’ Mae West, but different – I mean, she comes up with the witty sayings & one-liners right off the top of her head, naturally, and they’re always memorably brilliant, Dolly’s little sayings.

    Yeah, she’s way cool. She always was…

  23. BuzzBaby says:

    Dolly, you are the best. I have been listening to you for years. There is not a song that I don’t love. I Will Always Love You is my favorite. 9 to 5 and Steel Magnolias are my favorite movies. Dolly for President !!!!!

  24. paris herpes says:

    Dolly is a class act! She’s so lovable, if I ever meet her in person I think I’d give her a squeeze!

  25. Danielle says:

    Dolly’s always been naturally witty. I don’t think she gets people to write it for her. It would be impossible to remember all those lines.

  26. Gracie says:

    Tacky? Yes, but please keep in mind what Ms. Parton herself said: It’s expensive to look this cheap!

  27. Carly says:

    Dolly Parton is an extrodary person!! Think: she has the Imagination Library… and she gives money to every charity!! She IS really generous!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So think before you say something NOT nice about Mrs.Parton!!!!!!
