Beyonce‘s highly-anticipated cover of Dolly Parton‘s hit song “Jolene” is a complete re-imagining of the song. The events of the storyline are still intact, but she isn’t playing around when it comes to another woman tying to steal her man. To put it simply, she says, “don’t try me.” In Parton’s version, the narrator begs and pleads for Jolene to leave her man alone. She reasons with her, saying just because you can take him, doesn’t mean you should. Beyonce, on the other hand, knows Jolene’s type and she’s not afraid to take matters into her own hands if that’s what it comes down to. Subscrib...

Aside from the two songs she’s already released off the project, “Texas Hold ‘Em” and “16 Carriages,” Beyoncé has been pretty tight-lipped about what fans can expect when she drops her country album, Act II, at the end of this month. But Dolly Parton just might be offering up a hint or two. In a recent interview with Knox News, Parton says she believes Beyoncé has recorded or intends to record a cover of “Jolene,” the country megahit that Parton first released back in 1973. “Well I think she has! I think she’s recorded ‘Jolene’ and I think it’s probably gonna be on her country album, which I’m...

LeGrand Gold, the Dolly Parton superfan so dedicated that he placed a meeting with her on his bucket list, died on Feb. 8, Peopleconfirms. He was 48 years old. The Utah native battled Stage 4 cancer for a couple of years, and after a set of scans relayed bad news in late 2023, he opted to focus less on curative treatment and more on the bucket list that he described as “LeGrand’s List of Living.” That list included some humble goals — spending more time with his children and taking a trip to Chicago with his wife Alice, for example — as well at least one goal that seemed unattainable: Meeting ...

Could a revamped female empowerment anthem from Dolly Parton and “Mr. Worldwide” himself be the collaboration country fans never knew they needed? In mid-February, Pitbull quietly put out a song called “Powerful Women,” an uptempo but emotional salute to everything his working-class mother accomplished when he was a child. There’s something awfully familiar about the track, though: That’s right, it samples Parton’s iconic 1980 working woman’s anthem, “9 to 5.” But the twists and turns don’t stop there. “Powerful Women” includes Parton singing the chorus of “9 to 5,” and it sounds like a fresh ...
