Dolly Parton: The Country Music Legend Who Never Plans to Stop..
Dolly Parton, the legendary country music icon, recently shared her unconventional view on the future. Speaking with Ken Bruce on the UK’s “Greatest Hits Radio,” she said, “hopefully drop dead in the middle of a song on stage someday – hopefully one I’ve written.” Despite sounding grim, it reflects her unwavering passion for her craft.
Parton’s philosophy centers on nurturing dreams, believing each dream is like a tree, needing care to flourish. “I’m not one to sit around doing nothing,” she adds, emphasizing her relentless drive that has made her a beloved figure in country music history.
Her latest album, “Rockstar,” marks a departure into rock music, inspired by her induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2022. Collaborating with icons like Paul McCartney and Sting, she ventures beyond her country roots.
Looking ahead, Parton aims to launch her TV network featuring shows about her life and interests. She also plans a fashion and beauty line alongside a book release titled “Behind the Seams: My Life in Rhinestones” in October.
Despite her monumental success, Parton remains humble, fueled by her love for music and her husband’s good health. Brace yourselves for November 17, when “Rockstar” hits the shelves, signaling yet another milestone in Dolly Parton’s extraordinary journey.
