DollyParton Old enough to have seen her on the Porter Wagoner show, watching with my Dad. Took many years to appreciate her business savvy.

DollyParton Damn, I love her

DollyParton It’s your business. Do what you want. I think point is- this is America - if it is your business - it is up to you! Freedom!!!

DollyParton I LOVE her!! A true American icon and class act. She has never let her fans down⭐️

DollyParton 🩸✝️🩸 💅 🦄🌻🐝💛💛💛

DollyParton Yes Dolly!! Know better — do better... my life motto and one I teach my students.

DollyParton Definition of class

DollyParton her covid theme park is open for business rn if anyone wants to die

DollyParton Dixie offensive?! It's a term not a racist, hateful name. Should we change the name of Dixie Cups now lol?!

DollyParton Nathan Bedford Forrest was the first grand wizard of the KKK. Many are calling for a new name for Nathan Bedford Forrest State Park in Tennessee here:

DollyParton DollyParton This is why I love you! We do better when we know better ❤️ We are all continuously learning.. God Bless you

DollyParton I really can’t anymore lmaooo, Dixie is part of our hertiage. The poor Dixie chicks had to change their whole name and Lady Antebelum too (not sure how that’s offensive too)

DollyParton Good heart, wonderful person!

DollyParton Dixie is a racist word? So when people who get offended when another says “Hello”, will be change that too? Americans are becoming such snowflakes.

melsonite DollyParton 'Don't be a dumbass.' - Dolly Parton She's the hero we need but not the hero we deserve.

DollyParton From Willie Nelson to Nelson Mandela the world loves Dolly

DollyParton Love Dolly Parton

DollyParton DollyParton should invite BLM to an all free weekend at DollyWood. No security, because that screams mistrust. Excited for the videos. 😶

DollyParton Amen Dolly!

DollyParton nwsteff

DollyParton Remember an opinion is an opinion: does it matter if it’s not offensive TO YOU? A fact is a fact. Is it offensive to someone Be an adult!! Fix it. Do the research bc no one taught you in school bc the states controlled what you learned! (ie: slavery, confederacy, Columbus).

DollyParton Bless your heart, Dolly.

DollyParton Amazing! Just fix it!

DollyParton Dolly don’t give in to these idiots! You are an amazing lady. No one will change Their opinion of you. You’re just wonderful

DollyParton What is wrong with “Dixie “ Why do we give in to this bullshit. Changing names , removing statues. Enough with this crap. History is history. It will always be there whether it is right or wrong. Stop already!!

DollyParton It was our heritage, but like so many other things, like having an arranged marriage/putting crazy relatives in the attic/owning other people, it’s time to move on and call it a day. Unfortunately, Dixie = American Traitor. Let’s not be that. The name Dixie remains cute.

DollyParton Dolly is amazing

DollyParton The QUESTION Dolly should be asking is are the people claiming to be offended by 'Dixie' have they ever gone to Dollywood in the past or do they have plans to go in the future? My guess is 'NO' so she's ticked off the base she actually makes $$ off of.

DollyParton What's wrong with the word Dixie?

DollyParton DollyParton luv ya but a Dixie was ok until 2020 Paleeese

DollyParton I don’t care what she calls it she’s my favorite person in the world and I’ll go to the stampede anytime.

DollyParton Thank You❗️

DollyParton Parton 2020

DollyParton She is a sweet, humble human being who just happens to be one of the best entertainers of our time. (She kills it in concert! 🙂)

DollyParton No matter what you do in life you’re going to offend people! Who are beautiful looks alone offended a lot of people

DollyParton In 1859, the musician and performer Daniel Decatur Emmett composed “Dixie,” a minstrel song that included the now-famous refrain “Away, away, away down south in Dixie!” The song was a smash hit in its day—Abraham Lincoln called it “one of the best tunes I have ever heard”

DollyParton It's her theatre - she can rename it however she wants. I was really disappointed to see a bunch of dumbasses protesting her decision after all she 's done for east Tennessee.

DollyParton She’s awesome

DollyParton I find it hard to believe that Dixie is offensive, but what do I know, I live in 'Indian country' what we call the Mandan, Hidatsa and Arikara Nation,

DollyParton Precious that anyone thinks they will stop at removal of the word, 'Dixie'

DollyParton Hw

DollyParton Came here on a link from ex-Dixie chicks hoping to understand the reason for the name change. I still didn't. Not American so dixie meant nothing to me. Followed link in article and felt that more than the name was the issue.sounds like this reenactment show is rewriting history

DollyParton Omg. Dolly there is no problem with the word Dixie. Theres a dumass problem with letting people burn our country down

DollyParton here’s the thing about dixie stampede. it’s literally a “stampede” between the north and the south and it is racist as fuck

DollyParton I grew up in a small town in Oklahoma. The far south of town was called “Dixie” because it is where the majority of POC lived. I hated the reference and was so happy to see when the town started integrating. Racists still call it Dixie. SMH

DollyParton Dolly has always been a genius. businessdecision

DollyParton Another one giving in and bowing down to blm movement

CurtisMWong DollyParton WTF Black Music denigrates, sexaulizes women NON STOP depicts Black men as violent. WAKE THE HELL UP-who cares about dixe when u are constantly telling women to take off their close, bend over - and rappers talking gangster crap that stereo types black people. New Black Awareness

DollyParton Love ya

DollyParton A legend being legendary.

DollyParton Where is your mountain pride Dixie is our heritage are you ashamed of it now?

DollyParton People pandering to stay relevant. I’m so glad I’m not in Hollywood and need their acceptance to make my life whole.

DollyParton I don’t like being referred to as a crayon color. Your not black and I’m not white. We are are many different hues of browns. Some a little lighter and some a little darker.

DollyParton What is offensive about Dixie? Say what’s offensive about it. Why piss off one group to appease another?

DollyParton It’s not a problem it’s a word. You cave to the destruction of America is not fixing a problem. Dixie is not racist.

DollyParton Love “her dumbass

DollyParton love you, Dolly! you're so right...

DollyParton Many people who struggle with this deal with White fragility and don't realize that invalidating other people is why we are right here. Thank you, Billboard for taking action NoPlaceForWhitePrivilege

DollyParton Sometimes simple is best

DollyParton she didn't remove 'Dixie' from Dollywood, it was removed from the 'Dixie Stampede' dinner shows, which is seperate from the Dollywood theme park

DollyParton But why is Dixie offensive? I know women that have this name.

DollyParton 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

DollyParton 'I have my own thoughts, my own opinions, of course,' Parton says, 'but I don't believe that I should offend people that don't have that same opinion by voicing my own opinion. I'm an entertainer' - DollyParton 2019

DollyParton “I learned a long time ago to keep your damn mouth shut if you want to stay in show business.” - DollyParton 2018 What happened, Dolly

DollyParton Now this is going to open a new can of worms on that word ‘DIXIE’

DollyParton In the beautiful and stately Tennessee Capitol, there's ONE portrait or bust of a person who was NOT the Governor. It's of KKK founder and mass murderer Nathan Bedford Forrest. There's a petition to replace it with one of DollyParton.👇 But the DUMBASSES in the TNleg resist!

DollyParton Just another reason to 💕 you Dolly!

DollyParton Great woman, just wish she hadn't had so much plastic surgery - that's the only way she could be an even more beautiful person! Depressing that even a woman this great chose the knife - wish we could celebrate out ages and accept the wrinkles. Still, Dolly for Pres gets my vote!

DollyParton And I'm wearing my Kindness Is Queen t-shirt with pride today! 🤟❤️ NinaWest

DollyParton How do we fix the Trump problem?

DollyParton That quote summarizes all the wisdom literature ever written. We would all do well to learn it and live it.

DollyParton Anyone named Dixie shouldn't be given any crap though, and shouldn't be told to change it, or asked if they have a nickname they go by.

DollyParton Maybe DollyParton should be POTUS? She would do much better than realDonaldTrump ... Get more votes in key states.

DollyParton She is a lesson to us all. ❤️

DollyParton There is not a more perfect human on this planet ❤️

DollyParton In 100 years when the world no longer exists there will be a list floating in space that will be found and all it says is Things the world did not deserve: Dolly Parton, dogs, music, nature
