Dolly Parton defending the LGBTQ+ community from attacks 10 years ago:
I do not believe that we should criticize and judge other people. Weโre all Godโs children. We are who we are. I just think that we should be more loving, more caring, we are who we are. If youโre gay, youโre gay. If youโre straight, youโre straight and you should be allowed to be who you are.
