Now if only we could get them together on

A beauty salon in North Carolina has paired RuPaul with country music singer and songwriter Dolly Parton, and it’s just the type of unity this country needs most right now.
According to
WSOL, a likeness of the queer ally and buxom queen of country music Parton has graced the wall outside the Beauty Parade salon in West Asheville since 2018. Recently, though, owner Terra Marshall called upon muralist Gus Cutty to update the mural by adding the iconic drag queen to his earlier artistic creation. The response has been decidedly positive, with even RuPaul giving a big seal of approval to the mural.

RuPaul has just joined a mural of Saint Dolly Parton on the side of a hair salon in North Carolina.
Artist Gus Cutty created the mural of the “Jolene” singer in 2018 on the wall outside Beauty Parade Hair Salon in West Asheville, North Carolina. Salon owner Terra Marshall has been teasing that the mural would be updated over the past couple of weeks, even posting a picture of the almost finished piece.
“We get at least 10 visitors a day, probably upwards of 50 or 60 during the weekends,” Marshall told news station
WLOS. “So, the new addition is definitely going to bring probably even more.”
