    Do you know the history behind Whitney Houston's 'I Will Always Love You'? It sure has a lot to do with Dolly! Check it out:

      I rather real interviews like this where we get to know the person than the fluff, “nicey” stuff now. Just because someone asks you a question doesn’t mean you have to answer. Now it’s, “Tell me the story when you almost burned rice trying to cook,” “How was working with this director?” And we get phony replies.

      Amen!! At the end it's like I feel bad for Barbara because she had an agenda and Dolly basically looked down winked at her and pinched her cheek. Dolly didn't need to say anything but everything she said here was so ABOVE any kind of fuse Barbara was trying to light. Almost as if to say look at how cute you are trying to get me to say something inappropriate. The boob questions, were just plain rude! Finally Dolly addressed it with "my figure" which was so amazingly classy. That was what has always blown me away about Dolly Parton. She was always soooo classy as to never invite any rude questions and has always been absolutely gorgeous and adorably cute. Then you hear her sing and my god it's like what I'd imagine angels sing like. And she can talk into singing better than anyone I've ever heard.

The only interview that I've seen that is worse than BABA WAWA's interview of Dolly Parton, is when David Letterman interviewed Grace Slick (of Jefferson Airplane). In this interview, David Letterman trashes Grace Slick, and he puts her down, and he trashes her again. How sad.

      Society is very different now, however. Unacceptable behavior is much more tolerated & a new ‘normal’ is being rammed down everyone’s throats. Kids have been Indoctrinated for decades in schools. It’s just much more blatant & heavy duty now, b/c their parents were also Indoctrinated, but on a lesser scale. It’s been a steady escalation over time. As all brainwashing & mind control is.

      Taking the masses down by any means the Evildoers can, is the plan. So they can take over w/total control.
      Control by FEAR has been the agenda on a global scale for going on 2 yrs now. And it’s obviously not stopping. Can’t let anyone get comfortable thinking things are evening out, or going to be ‘OK’. This is ‘on’, full throttle now. No turning back.
      The 24/7/365 propaganda & narratives are covering _every area_ now. And millions that are ‘group thinking’, over independent critical thinking, have fallen for it all. Doesn’t matter education level. This reaches beyond that. Obviously.

      Interviews should push limits. If they don't at least probe for some sort of interesting thing or bit of insight, why would you bother watching it? That said, the interview was very much patronizing and the interviewer clearly doesn't respect Dolly at all when this interview takes place and that's seen clearly in the questions. Would I change it? Nope. Because the interviewer reflected the criticisms of a wide swath of "society" types in 1977 who all thought they were better than her. It's no different than today listening to the coastal, self-appointed "elites" talking about fly-over country. It's just as derisive, arrogant, and dismissive. Those of us subject to that socially-acceptable scorn should be able to defend ourselves and respond to the critics. Dolly did that with class. She always has been a very genuine, loving woman and an admirable human being.

      I agree - southern accents are charming. Dolly’s accent differs from Southerners living in other parts of the southern US. For example, the southern accent my family from Georgia has is different from from hers in some noticeable ways if one listens. Texan accents sound different than those in Florida, and Tennessee has yet another variation on the accent. It’s fun to learn about these differences by talking to Southerners from different parts of the South.

    And then Dolly answers with wisdom, intelligence, sincerity, and the perfect amount and use of humor.

She surely had to tuck some of Dolly's wisdom and intelligence into her pocket and carried it with her for her own rainy days. Ms. Walters disappointed me greatly here. Some jealousy maybe? Because she certainly couldn't touch, with a very very very long pole, Dolly's talent - or grace. Do you know how few people are recognized by their first names only? They couldn't have paid me enough money to be this rude and thoughtless.
