Nashville Nights: Dolly's Dazzling Display of Forgiveness!
Country music fans were in for a wild ride at The Grand Ole Opry last month when Elle King (32, Singer-Songwriter) took the stage to honor the one and only Dolly Parton on her 78th birthday. But hold your horses, y'all – it wasn't the smooth-sailing tribute we expected!
Elle King, known for her edgy tunes and powerhouse vocals, found herself in a pickle when she confessed to the crowd that she was "hammered" and couldn't recall the words to Dolly's beloved song "Marry Me." Talk about a birthday surprise!
But fear not, because our Southern songstress Dolly Parton isn't one to hold a grudge! Speaking to "Extra," Dolly showered Elle with kindness, saying, "She's a great girl, and she's been going through hard things lately." Dolly's heart is as big as her hair, y'all!
The Grand Ole Opry, where country legends are made, didn't miss a beat in addressing the boozy blunder. They sent out a heartfelt apology for any ruffled feathers, saying they "regret and apologize for the language that was used." Class act, Opry!
