Well, this was unexpected! This video has triggered my first ever viral post anywhere on social media. So, because it’s getting so much attention, I decided to go back to Facebook and find out who originally posted the video. It appears to have been a guy by the name of Chad Taylor. I’ve sent him a DM on Facebook letting him know what’s happening here on my X account with his video. Here’s the link to his Facebook profile:

Dolly Parton reveals that the real Jolene was actually just a little red-headed girl asking for an autograph.
“There was a little girl at one of our shows. She was a little red-headed girl, pretty as she could be. She came up to get an autograph.”
“She said, ‘Would you sign it to Jolene?’ I said, ‘Oh, that’s a pretty name, I’m gonna write a song about you.’”
“I said, ‘If you ever hear a song on the radio called Jolene, you’ll know it’s about you.’”
“I got back to the bus and I was singing, ‘Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene’ just so I wouldn’t forget the name.”
“That’s why the whole chorus is pretty much just saying the word Jolene.”
We had so much fun celebrating The Oak Ridge Boys last night in honor of their 15th Anniversary! If you missed it, they'll be back in the circle on August 14th and 15th💫
We miss you, Joe 🤍
