Dolly Parton compliments Taylor Swift and Beyonce, discusses being left out of Cowboy Carter.

Dolly Parton, the iconic country legend, recently expressed her admiration for two of the biggest pop stars in the world, Taylor Swift and Beyoncé. In a recent interview with Variety, Parton had nothing but praise for both superstars and even shared her thoughts on the recent snub of Beyoncé’s album “Cowboy Carter” at the CMA Awards.

Parton had high praise for Taylor Swift, describing her as amazing and admiring her career transition from country to pop. She commended Swift for her business acumen, personal life handling, and the inspiration she provides to young people around the world.

When it came to Beyoncé’s album “Cowboy Carter,” which featured a cover of Parton’s hit song “Jolene,” Parton described it as a great album that she felt fortunate to be a part of. She highlighted Beyoncé’s country roots from growing up in Texas and Louisiana, stating that the singer’s background added authenticity to the project.

Despite the lack of recognition for “Cowboy Carter” at the CMAs this year, Parton believes that it was not intentional and attributed it to the strong presence of traditional country artists in the field. She acknowledged the wonderful work of country artists and expressed pride in Beyoncé’s contribution to the genre.

Parton also expressed her willingness to perform “Jolene” with Beyoncé in the future, showing her support for collaborations between artists of different genres. She extended her pride to other female artists like Chappell Roan and Sabrina Carpenter, emphasizing that she views them all as talented individuals deserving of recognition.

As a 10-time Grammy winner and a respected figure in the music industry, Parton sees herself as a supportive figure for younger female artists, cheering them on from a place of experience and wisdom. She believes that each artist brings something unique to the table and values the diversity and creativity they bring to the music scene.
