  "account": "Dolly Parton's iconic \"Jolene\" look was recreated by singer Lizzo for Halloween. The 38-year-old artist, known for her hit singles and flamboyant fashion sense, embraced the country legend's 1973 single by donning a yellow jumpsuit with floral designs and a platinum blonde wig. Lizzo's Instagram video showcased her elaborate costume, as she lip-synced to Parton's 1967 song \"Dumb Blonde,\" mouthing the lyrics \"Just cause I'm blonde, don't think I'm dumb, 'cause this dumb blonde ain't nobody's fool.\" Fans, including SZA, praised Lizzo's flawless execution, commending her for consistently creating flawless looks. Lizzo's tribute to Parton extended beyond her costume. She shared several photos of her Dolly-inspired ensemble, including one that recreated an alternate \"Jolene\" single cover featuring a bright red background. Another snapshot displayed Lizzo holding a guitar in front of a gold certification plaque for Parton's 2023 album, Rockstar, which also celebrated Lizzo's contribution to the album by playing the flute. In her caption, Lizzo expressed her gratitude to Parton, stating, \"Dolly, you icon you, thank you for believing in the good of humanity, for seeing our light in the darkness and loving us anyways!\" Lizzo's dedication to honoring Parton's legacy was evident in her Halloween costume and her contributions to Rockstar, the country legend's album featuring covers and original songs.",
