October 12, 2012 Like a few country stars on this list of cameos on 'The Simpsons,' Dolly Parton saves the day in her episode. Homer and his friends travel to the Super Bowl, but end up getting tossed in the stadium's jail after sneaking into the game (their tickets were printed on crackers). The country star frees them by dissolving the lock with h
Kenny Rogers is on the promotional trail for his new book 'Luck or Something Like It,' and while chatting with CBS This Morning, the singer addressed the long-standing rumors of a past romance with fellow country legend Dolly Parton. He and his 'Real Love' and 'Islands in the Stream' duet partner Parton did not go down that road, simply because they were too good of friends and any sort of romantic dalliance would have spoiled their friendship.
Country icon Dolly Parton and her Dollywood company will no longer be associated with the previously planned water park in Nashville.

If you haven't heard Dolly Parton's smash 'I Will Always Love You,' chances are you're living underneath a rock ... and have been for decades. Parton took the tune to the top of the charts in 1974. Sh

It's a simpler kind of love that we tend to miss these days.
Kiddie beauty shows are already controversial, what with the poofy gowns and layers of makeup, but one mom may have taken pageant-crazy to the extreme on a recent episode of the TLC series 'Toddlers & Tiaras.' In fact, Lindsay Jackson might actually lose custody of her 6-year-old daughter, Maddy, thanks in part to a Dolly Parton costume, which included padding the little girl's behind and chest to 'enhance' her lady parts to be more like the country singer's notorious bust and rear.
It's hard to believe that Dolly Parton experienced a first in her career last week, so deep into the legendary singer's success in country music. Friday morning (Aug. 10), Parton's label -- Dolly Records -- earned its first gold-selling album for her Cracker Barrel double-disc, 'An Evening With ... Dolly.'

July 30, 2012 Last week, Taylor Swift announced she's looking for more acting work. However, the singer has a long way to go before she'll match the credits of a few other country superstars. While the Nashville-to-Hollywood express is not the norm, enough singers have made the move -- often temporarily -- in recent years to beg the question: Who is the best actor in country music?
July 1, 2012 Dolly Parton has almost as many wigs as hit songs, but we have to call her out on this Mississippi Mudflap. This picture was taken just five years ago, and there are others in her yearbook that come close to a full mullet. Parton is the only female country artist on this Most Fa
