My 7-year-old daughter heard me say that Dolly Parton died, and got visibly very sad. I was surprised she even knew that name.
“You know Dolly Parton?”
In the sweetest timid voice, she replied:
“Well, I don’t _know_ know her. But she sent me books.”
🥹😢😭
This is so cute but it’s absolutely sending me that Dolly made Sabrina change the lyrics from “don’t embarrass me motherfucker” to “don’t embarrass me like the others” but let her keep the premise of the video being that she beat that man and threw him in the back of the truck
u soulless internet ghouls have the nerve to downplay dolly parton's years of advocacy and philanthropy when ur idea of activism is limited to making snarky tweets. she did more for humanity than u could in 100 lifetimes
If you need a pickup, try the song Dolly made with Pitbull. At first, I thought she was just featured because he wanted to use the chorus of 9 to 5, but then he's like, "take it dolly, dale hur hur hur," and she has a rap verse thanking Pitbull for being a feminist
