The Evolution Of Dolly Parton

She’s The Godmother Of Miley Cyrus

Dolly Parton is the godmother of the pop and country singer Miley Cyrus. The pair sang “Jolene” together, which was really amazing. They both have great voices and together they just take the song in a different direction. Parton was asked in 2014 about her opinion of what Miley had become in the media.

Parton said that she has loved Miley since she was a baby. Parton said Miley wanted to become Miley but no one would let her so she took it to extreme measures. In addition, Parton says she hopes Miley makes good choices because she has a lot of talent.

A Supportive Godmother

When asked about Miley’s indecency in the media in 2014 (when Miley was arguably wilder and more out there than she is recently), Parton did what any other good Godparent would do and justified Miley’s actions.

Parton told TIME, “If I didn’t know how smart and talented Miley is, I might worry about her. But I’ve watched her grow up. So I don’t. She knows what she’s doing. She was very proud of the work she did as Hannah Montana, but people were gonna leave her there forever… The girl is smart. And she doesn’t have to be so drastic. But I will respect her choices. I did it my way, so why can’t she do it her way?”
