It really was profoundly special to be a young gay person hearing the biggest name in country music talk like this. I can’t even imagine how many queer people, especially those in conservative areas, she made feel seen and accepted. Earnest as hell, but her support was powerful.
What a life and a tremendous loss for mankind. Rest in power, Dolly!
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 is preceded in death by her beloved husband of 59 years Carl Thomas Dean (1942 – 2025), her mother Avie Lee Caroline Owens (1923 – 2003), and father, Robert Lee Parton, Sr. (1921 – 2000).
A rhinestone life that shone bright enough for the world to see, Dolly will forever stand as an inspiration not only through her timeless music and prolific songwriting, but also her wit, warmth, and kindness that made us all feel like family. Dolly Parton’s legacy is one of love, compassion, and resilience. With a seven-decade career, she inspired multiple generations of artists and fans with her music and an unwavering commitment to making the world a better place. Her songs will continue to resonate with people of all ages, and her philanthropic work will have a lasting impact.
At Dolly’s request, a small, private service will be held for immediate family. Dolly’s fans and friends from around the world are encouraged to pay tribute to Dolly on social media by tagging @DollyParton or by leaving a message at dollyparton.com
In lieu of flowers the family asks for donations to be made to Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library at imaginationlibrary.com

Ever since I was a child, I’ve wanted to write musicals. Although I’m British, Broadway was what musicals meant to me.
To a boy growing up in Britain, Broadway was a distant, thrilling place where the greatest musical theatre in the world was born.
Sheesh @CBSSunday nice of you to commemorate Mignon Dunn but this isn’t her. It appears to be Birgit Nilsson. Don’t trust ChatGPT for your research. @MetOpera had many lovely pictures of Mignon that I’m sure they would have given permission to use.

62 years ago today, the Civil Rights Act became law, outlawing discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.
Progress didn't happen by chance. It happened because people marched, organized, and spoke out.
The work continues. Let's keep pushing for equality, opportunity, and justice for all.
