Dolly Parton Reacts In The Most Dolly Parton Way To Lil’ Nas X’s ‘Jole…

Is this the birth of an iconic new duo?

“I was so excited when someone told me that Lil Nas X had done my song “Jolene”. I had to find it and listen to it closest…and it’s really, really good,” she wrote on Instagram. “Of course, I love him anyway. I was surprised and I’m honored and flattered. I hope he does good for both of us. Thank you.”

Lil Nas X dropped his new album, “Montero,” earlier this month, which includes a song with Miley Cyrus. His 2019 megahit, “Old Town Road,” featured her father, Billy Ray Cyrus.

Lil Nas X recently teased that he “will not rest until i’ve collected every cyrus stone to harness the ultimate strength.” Perhaps this is part of his quest ― Parton is Miley Cyrus’s godmother.
