Dolly Parton has reportedly received an offer from Jack White to producer her next record. How epic does that sound? The legendary country singer said “I’ve thought about doing it… He (White) seems to be a fan but who knows. You never know what I might do.” Dolly also said that she’s not opposed to the White Stripes singer producing her record but that she usually has “a set notion of where I’m headed with a certain project and what I want to get out of it.” Well, she never knows. Jack might just share the same ideas as her.

The legendary Dolly Parton is talking about her Broadway baby ‘9 to 5’. The musical’s run on the Great White Way is coming to a close on September 6 and the iconic singer has released a statement via her official website expressing her gratitude to the cast and crew. She said “I couldn’t have asked for a better experience on my first Broadway show. I’ve had the privilege of working with an amazing group of people who have become like family to me. I can’t wait to for this show to hit the road next year so people across the country can see why I’m so proud of everyone involved.”

The star of the Broadway musical ‘9 to 5’ Stephanie J. Block has just recorded the most beautiful cover I have ever heard of the Dolly Parton classic ‘I Will Always Love You’. The song has been reworked as a duet and she’s got the iconic country singer Dolly herself joining in on the vocals. It’s amazing! After hearing Whitney Houston’s version of the song, I thought that was a good as it was going to get but Stephanie has gone and proved that idea to be wrong. If she decides to have a music career apart from singing on Broadway, she already has a fan and supporter in me.

Dolly Parton performed her ambassadorial duties Tuesday night at a National Press Club luncheon in Washington DC where she spoke on behalf of the Great Smoky Mountain National Park. The Park is celebrating its 75th anniversary and the country singing icon is its official Ambassador. Dolly is pretty much the defender of all things wonderful, including national parks. And she does all that while looking ever so fabulous. I think every celebrity should be just like Dolly. She’s such a good person and she does so many good things with finesse. If the world can have just one ruler, I vote for Dolly!

Dolly Parton called the cops on some people earlier this week and T-Pain and Ludacris may just be the culprits. The country singing icon was filming a music video on Hollywood Boulevard this past week when hooligans intentionally disrupted the shoot with some hip hop tunes pouring from a boom box. Well that was really disrespectful. I hope they got told. No one should do that to Dolly. Every type of music is welcome in California, do they not know that? Hip hop these days is overrated anyway. Cops came and went but the hecklers stayed as Dolly walked the streets.
