Dolly Parton, a country music icon, has endeared herself to American fans, achieving fame with hits like “Jolene” and “9 to 5.” Born in Locust Ridge, her journey from “rags-to-rhinestones” was shaped by family, notably Uncle Bill Owens, who propelled her into the music industry. Despite her glamorous image, Dolly faced struggles, experiencing negative attention for her makeup and surgeries. Humorous about her appearance, she emphasized her authenticity, stating, “I run true and deep.” Dolly, while never having children of her own, expressed the sacrifice needed for her career, sharing that she and her husband wondered what their kids would look like. Despite personal struggles, Dolly remains committed to helping others, contributing to charities and initiating the Imagination Library project, providing free books to children. Reflecting on sacrifices made for her career, she believes in doing what she knows she’s meant to do.
