[@dr.davidenglish778]

It was very funny but a little bit of a goof ball joke. I don't like country music, but I would listen to her anytime. She is so very gracious. I loved her, Jane Fonda, Lilly Tomlin and Dabney Coleman in 9 to 5. It is a classic movie.

[@ItsMe-yv9jd]

?? Am I the only one that noticed Dolly is wearing flesh coloured rubber gloves to hide the age spots and wrinkles (interesting that the ends are cut off, so her fingernails can poke through.)

[@markjoll4825]

If you ever have a chance to see Dolly in a live venue, do it! It's hard to describe how gifted she is as a songwriter and singer. Anyone who likes any kind of music will find her to be a one-of-a-kind, super-gifted artist.

I had the honor of meeting Dolly at Dollywood when I was a little girl and I was completely star-struck. My family and I visit Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg multiple times a year. It’s our home away from home. I believe her magic makes it that way. She is the most beautiful soul on Earth!

[@lindablue7494]

That was the best. She is whip smart and hasn't lost her charm or her humor. The bear joke, had me laughing so hard. I then remembered watching movies and shows with her growing up. They were the best moments of my life. She is such a treasure, musician, star and person. Just simply the best. Love Dolly.

Whenever I hear her voice, she takes me back to those times when I was a very young boy, being babysat in a Country Night Club that my Grandparents owned in the 70s. My parents worked and my Dad would always drop us off there during the day.......when it was pretty slow....... I was between 4 and 7 when this would happen.... Of course nobody would say anything since my Dad was a Police Officer of the city........ Like I said, not much of a Country music enthusiast, but Country People ARE GREAT!!! And Dolly is #1
