Dolly Parton about Mariah Carey:

"I love Mariah Carey. She can out-sing me so bad, though, or so good. I would really have trouble keeping up with her vocally, because I think she's spectacular. I'll be Miss Christmas or Mrs. Christmas."

Rest in Peace Queen🕊️

Reese Witherspoon remembers Dolly Parton:

“I count my lucky stars that I called Dolly my friend. When I was playing June Carter Cash in Walk the Line, she took me to dinner and told me stories of how June Carter charmed everyone in country music. Dolly gave me the courage to put my whole spirit into that performance and made me see how lucky I was to be a storyteller.

Throughout my entire career, she sent me little notes of encouragement and support, telling me to be the light in people’s lives and listen to my angels. Always signed: ‘I will always love you.’

Dolly, I miss you already. Your talent, your wisdom and your beautiful spirit lit up our lives. Go soar with your angels.... We will always love you. ❤️”

[William Shatner @WilliamShatner]

Dolly Parton was one of a kind.
I had the pleasure of crossing paths with Dolly over the years, and she was every bit as memorable, talented and funny as you would imagine.

But beyond the extraordinary talent was something even more important: her heart.

She brought joy to generations of people and left the world considerably better than she found it. She will be missed. 😔

[Shania Twain 💎💎💎 @ShaniaTwain]

Dolly was pure light sent from heaven. My mentor is gone. My songwriting teacher and hero of grace and humility. There is a hole in my heart but the joy of just the thought of her smile will continue to fill me with inspiration for as long as I live. I will cherish this moment performing Coat Of Many Colors with Dolly forever. Goodbye Dolly. Rest in peace, beautiful angel.

[Nickelback @Nickelback]

An incredible songwriter, an unbelievable entertainer, and just a genuinely good human being. There will only ever be one Dolly Parton, and we were lucky to have her. Rest easy, Dolly.

[George W. Bush Presidential Center @TheBushCenter]

"Laura and I, along with thousands of her fans, mourn the passing of Dolly Parton. We loved her music and her style. She was a great entertainer and even greater person. We respected her work to promote literacy, advance health, and strengthen communities. Dolly was a talented and hardworking American who will be missed."
-President George W. Bush

[Al Gore @algore]

In one of her many memorable hit songs, Dolly Parton famously sang about a “9 to 5” job that was “all taking and no giving.” So, in looking back on her amazing legacy, it's fitting to remember her for all her giving to others throughout her life: all the joy she gave us all with her incredibly beautiful songwriting, her captivating voice, and her endless creative pursuits. The 300 million free books she gave to children across America and around the world through her Imagination Library. All the fun she gave to families who visited Dollywood. The crucial funding and support she gave for medical research into pediatric cancer, infectious diseases, and not least, the Moderna COVID vaccine. She gave funding to provide shelter and food for the victims of disasters. I’m especially grateful for all that she gave back to our beloved home state of Tennessee. For many, her lasting gift is the inspiration to give back to our own communities with the same passion, humor, and conviction as Dolly. God bless her and may she rest in peace. We will always love her!

[Daryl Hall @realdarylhall]

I've known Dolly since the ’70s. Her loss is immeasurable. She was such a kind and genuinely nice person.

And I still don’t know how she played so well with those long fingernails! What an amazing mystery…
