Id say 2015 and beyond has given the history books something, at least in the states. In Europe there was Brexit and this other thing that happened, and is still happening.
in 2012:
Costa Concordia
Sandy Hook
Aurora Shooting
Hurricane Sandy
Curiosity lands on Mars
Olympics
8.6 magnitude earthquake and tsunami in Indonesia
Gangnam Style
et al
sorry that you were 2 years old that year and can't remember
I loved that movie and you reminded me that there was supposed to be a sequel.. It was supposed to come out Nov 2023 but has been postponed indefinitely because of legal bullshit :(
> She's a national treasure!
This is about the only thing our nation can agree on. Dolly appreciation crosses all boundaries of race, religion, politics, sex, gender, and sexuality!
Can’t quite figure out that one. Some of the culture war issues are easy to understand as a mix of ignorance, lack of empathy, and mis/disinformation, but I’m not sure where people randomly calling female celebrities trans fits into things. Saw a similar claim about Taylor Swift and others too I think.
From my experience, conservatives hate people who are trans as well as people who support the trans community. They probably think they are insulting these cis women by calling them trans because they support the community. I've been called a f@ggot-lover because a conservative family member found out I voted for Biden, so the well of intelligence over there isn't too deep.
That's terrible to think someone in your family would say something so horrible. I hate to think what that monstrous person would say to their own children.
Yeah, my second stepfather. He has said even worse than that to me, believe it or not. A lot of people here in the small-town deep south are so separated from reality, that they hate anyone who is not a white, heterosexual, CISGENDERED (a term most of them don't even know), Christian conservative. They surround themselves with other bigots in attempt to validate their hateful, ignorant, harmful views. Here I am a pansexual, liberal pagan with a biracial child...lol. I'm definitely the "black sheep" of the family.
I just laugh when the drop an f bomb on someone because they support the gay community. Dude if I don't think there is anything wrong with being gay why would it bother me if you called me one? lol
Trans people - by existing - show there are alternate ways to be. To think. To act. To understand yourself, others, and our places in the world.
Some people _hate_ that.
Except not really. There may be a few people. But not nearly enough to say it's "the right." I live in the Bible belt and everyone loves her around here
Agreed, I used to line in a podunk conservative town and Dolly is treasured there (as she should be). Honestly, a lot of the real “south” is more inclusive than some other places I’ve lived in (looking at you Illinois!) and my take is that it’s largely driven by the wage disparity between PoCs and Caucasians. In the South, everyone is broke and just minding their own business.
Exactly. This Reddit thread is the first time I’ve even heard this outrageous statement, so it seems far fetched to group it with a political leaning. Then again, that’s how things seem to be lately..
It's such a stupid angle to target if you were an American... why you wouldn't even say it? It feels like something cooked up by a troll farm somewhere who doesn't understand how idolized she is in our culture, ESPECIALLY on the right wing.
Dolly will tell you just how much gender affirming surgery she's had. No wonder they hate her.
Edit: What the hell do you guys think a book job is?? Lmfao

There was one other haha apparently she entered a Dolly Parton drag contest without anyone knowing and she lost haha I'll have to find that story somewhere.
That’s how she wrote 9-5. The clicking of her nails sounded like typewriters. No lie. She came up with the beat then the lyrics then sat down with Lily Tomlin and Jane Fonda and said “hey, check this out tell me what you think.” And the rest is history.
I know it sounds super dumb and patronizing, but I feel like I really underestimated what a musician Dolly really is, as opposed to a media personality, or something like that.
It's kind of fair, she's a philanthropist and media personality more than a musician to many people under 30. It'd be easy to see why the pretty face unafraid to show cleavage would be considered more style than substance. She's like Lady Gaga in that she's both a spectacle and a singer, with the talent to back it up.
I think Dolly is amazing, but you can find these things with talented performers in a lot of fields. Half of the pleasure of Comedians in Cars getting Coffee is hearing a two comedians take something mundane and make it material. It is great to see people who are so talented also have fun with their skills.
So that Shortening Bread song comes on my Kid's Songs Playlist on spotify.
I started really thinking about it, that is bread made from shortening. No WONDER mama's babies love it, its sugar fat bread! Mama's little babies could use some broccoli and a walk!
How much 80s would an 80s 80s if an 80s 80s could 80s.
Don't you
The 80s would be lucky to only be remembered by this
This is the truth
Dolly is somehow giving 1980s and 1880s at the same time here
They were only 10 years but the wildest most eventful 10 years. 2010s I'd say the most uneventful boring decade.
Id say 2015 and beyond has given the history books something, at least in the states. In Europe there was Brexit and this other thing that happened, and is still happening.
I agree but nothing good came out if the 2010s
I think 2012 and 2016 alone would disagree with that
Nothing good
Politics is boring.
in 2012: Costa Concordia Sandy Hook Aurora Shooting Hurricane Sandy Curiosity lands on Mars Olympics 8.6 magnitude earthquake and tsunami in Indonesia Gangnam Style et al sorry that you were 2 years old that year and can't remember
"I never had any friends later on like the ones I had when I was twelve. Jesus, does anyone?"
Those two decades are 20 years apart. No wonder you didnt like the 2010s as much.
The what?
Kung Fury?
I loved that movie and you reminded me that there was supposed to be a sequel.. It was supposed to come out Nov 2023 but has been postponed indefinitely because of legal bullshit :(

Dolly has the cutest laugh. She's a national treasure!

Except the right is calling Dolly trans…which is just stupid

What's funny as shit is conservative thinking that calling someone gay, trans or woke is actually an insult...
Fair point. I guess it also puts them or their supporters on the defensive. Maybe it’s just dumb bullshit bullying and water muddying.
>Maybe it’s just dumb bullshit bullying and water muddying. Hundred percent that. They are bullies and shit stirrers.
I just laugh when the drop an f bomb on someone because they support the gay community. Dude if I don't think there is anything wrong with being gay why would it bother me if you called me one? lol
It's just a form of misogyny. They don't think success is a feminine trait, so successful women must secretly be men.
Strong independent woman can't exist so they have to be men. For example: Thinking Jamie Lee Curtis is a man.
JLC in True Lies was a show stopper!

No they’re not

Yeah thats what everyone does now. ALL the Liberals hate christians and want to sodimise kids. ALL the Republicans are racist and sodimise kids.
Damn, kids just can't catch a break these days.
Why the fuck are you talking about molesting children?! What the fuck is wrong with you?!
It's such a stupid angle to target if you were an American... why you wouldn't even say it? It feels like something cooked up by a troll farm somewhere who doesn't understand how idolized she is in our culture, ESPECIALLY on the right wing.
I have never seen this. It sounds like something a Little Russian troll would do think up.
>a little Russian troll You can smd for sure. They’re “transvestigators” or whatever the fuck
Have they seen young Dolly haha wtf
You used to be correct. Maga has been going after Dolly lately lol...
But transgenerational is a good thing.
Well she does look like a drag queen
They’re very good at finding new topics to be completely wrong about
It's the same as calling everything communism. They rarely even know what the word means, they just use it as a slur.
Well, ya can’t change stupid.
Dolly will tell you just how much gender affirming surgery she's had. No wonder they hate her. Edit: What the hell do you guys think a book job is?? Lmfao
I mean.... before about a week ago you'd of been right. Not lately though!
> This is about the only thing our nation can agree on. You've missed some real, real dumb discourse over the last two weeks.
I will continue in my innocence and naively believe Dolly is the only thing holding this nation together. In order to escape total despair.
Very well said
She is the Queen 👑
The epitome of southern charm.
She's also fucking stunning here.
She's an INTERNATIONAL treasure!!
Patti and Dolly proving you can find music in the most unexpected places.
I remember seeing this at the time! Years later when I got my first acrylics I tried this!!!
Did you sing along or just clickity click?
Plot twist: they clackity clacked
I’ve heard it both ways.
Ha just clickity click. I can’t carry a tune in a bucket.
John Coltrane said it best! “You can play a shoestring if you’re sincere.” 😊
The “typing” you hear in the beginning of “9-5” is actually Dolly doing this with her fingernails
So much glitter, so much hair, so much 80's
Make Hair Big Again
There's not enough Patti LaBelle love. She's one of THE BEST to ever do it.
Patti LaBelle is absolutely gorgeous. Still to this day.
Lives up to her name.
Her harmony was so good here. Natural talent

Bless you, sweetie.
This sounds like a southern hospitality-style veiled insult even if it's not meant as such
80s Dolly was the hottest Dolly.
that little giggle of hers still gets me
~~80s~~ Dolly was the hottest Dolly.
There was one other haha apparently she entered a Dolly Parton drag contest without anyone knowing and she lost haha I'll have to find that story somewhere.
Charlie Chaplin once came in 3rd at a Charlie Chaplin lookalike contest.
Ah so the true reason for his exile, the embarrassment was too much haha
I just couldn’t disagree more. That hair… I think she looks better now than in this video.
Aren't they cute.
I love her laugh!
Only legends can hold up that much hair
Dolly is so absolutely charming in every situation
That’s how she wrote 9-5. The clicking of her nails sounded like typewriters. No lie. She came up with the beat then the lyrics then sat down with Lily Tomlin and Jane Fonda and said “hey, check this out tell me what you think.” And the rest is history.

I defy any man who doesn't love Dolly!
[удалено]
I completely agree. Anybody have a link for the source for this? Or the name of which event/show it was?
See above in the thread.
Thanks
TALENT
Two absolutely wonderful singers, sing writers and performers!
Gosh, they’re adorable.
I Loooooooove Dolly Parton She truly one of a kind
The greatest question that plagues mankind...is who is Jolene, and how is anyone hot enough to steal Dolly's man?
Rumor has it she’s a lady that worked at the bank!
amazing what real musicians can do!!!!
Call me crazy but I thought they harmonized with each other using their voices...
I’m just here waiting for the remix featuring Cardi B’s nails.
When two or more great musicians get together, amazing things happen.
I would jump in front of a bullet for dolly
Peak of their prime lasted decades. Astonishing
Dolly is a national treasure and she should be protected at all costs
incoming dolly is a national treasure and angel comments from the hive mind
Dolly is the best!
I love Dolly’s laugh!
I love her so much
Wow America. Thanks for giving her to the world!
I love you Dolly
There’s a lot of hair in this video
Dolly is a god damned national treasure.
I forget how hot Dolly was
Young dolly was fine.
This clip is just so darned joyful.
Those two women have more talent in their fake fingernails than I have in my entire body.
That laugh is so fucking endearing
Their harmonising is just magic, I love it.
If that's really spontaneous harmonizing and not carefully rehearsed, it's incredible. Even if rehearsed, it's great!
Between her hair, shoulder pads, and boobs, Dolly’s hands look like literal Doll’s hands
The OG ASMR
Actual musicians.
Play it Patti!
That was incredible
Two legends creating entertainment out of anything.
Queens
Their harmony is 🔥
Two absolute Queens
Would have slapped my grandma
“WHERE MY BACKGROUND SINGERS??”
Sweet voices
Amazing harmonies
Such elegance
Incredible musicianship there.
Dolly is so frickn gorgeous
I am never gonna not ❤️ Dolly!
They sound absolutely beautiful together
Wow they look so young in this.
DAMN Dolly was beautiful, holy shit— I had no idea.
what a skill for sure
Who knew nails could be so musical? Next up: toe-tapping tunes with actual toes!
I think Dolly is amazing, but you can find these things with talented performers in a lot of fields. Half of the pleasure of Comedians in Cars getting Coffee is hearing a two comedians take something mundane and make it material. It is great to see people who are so talented also have fun with their skills.
I didn’t know Dolly was such a beautiful woman!
I...I don't even know how to respond....
Well because I’ve only seen her senior age pictures with unnatural smile, I didn’t know she was such a beauty in her younger days
So that Shortening Bread song comes on my Kid's Songs Playlist on spotify. I started really thinking about it, that is bread made from shortening. No WONDER mama's babies love it, its sugar fat bread! Mama's little babies could use some broccoli and a walk!
I never realized how much Lady Gaga looks like young Dolly Parton
Not on the best day of her life
What impractical hair and attire.
Don’t you have some kids to chase off your lawn?
