Dolly Parton turns down offer of statue
Dolly Parton took to social media on Thursday (3 am Friday AEDT) to declare that she does not want the Tennessee legislature to approve putting up a statue of her at the state capitol. I want to thank the Tennessee legislature for their consideration of a bill to erect a statue of me on the Capitol grounds, she wrote. I am honoured and humbled by their intention, she continued but not that humbled, necessarily, by the governing body s attempt to come up with some feel-good legislation amid all of its famously divisive and controversial bills.
