Dolly Parton on supporting the LGBTQ+ community (2016): “I do not believe we should criticize and judge other people. If you’re the fine Christian you think you are, why are you judging people? I just think we should be more loving, more caring. We are who we are. If you’re gay, you’re gay. If you’re straight, you’re straight. You should be allowed to be how you are and who you are”
“I’m so proud of you. Just know i’m always proud to be your Aunt Dolly, whether it’s on Hannah Montana or at Thompson Station.” - Dolly Parton to Miley Cyrus
