'Dazzling' Dolly Parton: How Taylor Swift Remembers the Music Icon
Industry peers pay tribute to Dolly Parton, as the country music icon passed away at age 80. One of them is Taylor Swift.
As the country music world mourns the loss of Dolly Parton, tributes from her peers have poured in. Taylor Swift, a fellow artist, expressed her admiration for the icon, saying, "A world without Dolly doesn't feel possible, real, or right." The late singer-songwriter was remembered by Swift as someone to look up to, embodying grace, grit, and a soft heart for those in need, along with the courage to stand up for herself.
Swift also praised Parton's ability to write melodies that thawed even the coldest hearts, providing millions of children with books through her Imagination Library program, and taking risks that allowed young girls to dream of joining the circus. Swift, who donated to Parton's Imagination Library in memory of her, described Dolly as a "force of evolution and transformation" and an "ageless story teller."
