Global icon and humanitarian, Dolly Parton, known to the world as a beloved singer, songwriter, philanthropist, actress, playwright, and author died peacefully today in Nashville, Tennessee. She was 80 years old.

Dolly Parton addressed health concerns about her on May 4, 2026

She incredibly compared herself to an old antique car that needed a new engine, transmission, new pistons and spark plugs.

“They didn’t say anything about my mental health” she joked.

She clearly had a ton of plans and active projects for this year, including a Nashville museum and hotel, writing, recording, getting on stage in 5 inch heels.

RIP Dolly. Her greatness makes it feel like 80 is way too soon. 🧡

Lets pray together, Father God, we ask you to put your healing hands on Damar right now. Heal him Father as only you can do. You are a mighty physician & we trust you. Please bless his family Lord.

@BrentCorrado @FOX19Joe @NFL The players and the coaches of both teams are not mentally fit to continue to play tonight.

Continuing the game tonight will greatly increase the chance of additional players getting injured.

[Stormrider @Gl1tchByt3]

@FOX19Joe @nflcommish needs to just call this game off. Life is more important than a game and/or money. Play it another day if needed and honor all tickets for today's game at that game or refund those who can't come back. Prayers to Hamlin.

[Robert Griffin III @RGIII]

Please don’t share the video of the Damar Hamlin play. Share this because we are all Praying for him and his family.

Being attacked by both right & left simultaneously is a good sign

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

Twitter has had a massive drop in revenue, due to activist groups pressuring advertisers, even though nothing has changed with content moderation and we did everything we could to appease the activists.

Extremely messed up! They’re trying to destroy free speech in America.
