Poor Dolly...that sucked last night! She just needs to stick to talking and making us laugh!

I have also loved Dolly Parton for years, both as a musician and for her marvelous, self-depricating sense of humor and her genuine thankfulness and humility in spite of all of her wealth and superstardom.

One of my favorite quotes from her: "It takes a lot of money to look this cheap!" I also liked her comment last night about trying to keep her false eyelashes on. She just tells it like it is.

However after not seeing her for several years, while...

While Dolly is all kinds of amazing, she sorta sucked as a mentor. Meaning she couldn't bring herself to critique ANYONE, even when necessary. Instead, she claimed she liked everyone's performances even when some of them clearly sucked.

Im 43 and I knew 3 of her songs.

Another great Dolly quote, from the set of Steel Magnolias:

After a poor take, director Herbert Ross reprimanded Dolly Parton and asked her if she could act. She replied "No, but it's your job to make me look like I can!"

Truvy - OMG love that character. Dolly's not quite as frightening looking as Priscilla but she's getting there if she doesn't back off the cosmetic surgery. I'm all about looking as good as you can for as long as you can but there comes a time you have to accept the wrinkles and go with it. I know 60 seems ancient to alot of young folks, but in these times women can still look good at 60. You just don't look good to young men, but hey I've seen some looker men at 60...

I love, love, love Dolly Parton. I've seeen all her movies, and in the last year I've been listening to a classic country music station that plays quite a bit of her songs. (Did you know she has a version of Stairway to Heaven as well?). She's incredible. However, I will have to say that she needs to lay off the Botox. She and Pricilla Presley both look so rigid and can barely move their mouths to talk. I think they should just be brave and age gracefully the natural way....

I never got into her music much when I was a kid, but she was one of my 70's crushes... As I've gotten older, I definitely respect her musicianship and songwriting abilities.

Dolly's talent is indisputable, but she is a smart smart lady with a huge heart. Dolly knew early on she was marketable in more ways than songwriting and singing and she took the ball and ran with it. It is phenominal how a 5 ft tall country girl from backwoods Tennessee has become the player she has in the world of entertainment. She wanted fame, money, and the big brass ring. By golly she got it and managed to still maintain class and decency.

weighing in on the Dolly <3

I think her songs are even more fantastic than the beatles!! and I thought everyone did really well with their choices with the exception of devil's pork chop.

This was the best show they've had this season aside from 70s night with the top 10 guys. I thought 7 out of 9 singers did fine (Brooke and David Cook being the exceptions). Dolly is cool and obviously did a good job with this year's pretty talented but somewhat underachieving group. FYI: Saying you love Dolly Parton will not get you banned from here. Don't ask what will, it's too horrible!

I actually went to see Straight Talk at the theater. I'm not sure why now. Given Dolly's fan base, Straight Talk wasn't the best title.

The Dolly/James Woods pairing will go down as one of the strangest ever in cinema, but they had some chemistry. I still remember the scene where she had to debate the snooty psychiatrist and he kept asking her where she went to college. Finally she said, "I went to the university of Screw U."

She's incredibly...

Yes! SI we'll be waiting for your review when you watch it. "Hard Candy Christmas" and "It's a little bitty piss ant country place". Wooo! Of course "Nine of Five" is a camp masterpiece. <3 I also remember loving that movie where she played Dr. Shirley the psychiatrist. I think it was called "Straight Talk".

Probably not and I am sure this will be locked, but I do love her! She is a good singer and honestly, just a down to earth, real woman! I grew up with season tickets to Dollywood, her theme park, and it was fun! But what really impressed me is this: In her home town there are a TON of people who work for Dollywood. She saw that many of them just worked during the summer at her amusement park and were laid off during the winter, so she found a way to make sure her park was open year round...
