At 77, Dolly has confirmed that the rumors are true. I don’t care who you are or what you think of Dolly Parton, this is a courageous step for her to take, and we wish her the best

Dolly Parton, a music industry icon, has accomplished a great deal throughout her career, yet she continues to push herself and enhance her already remarkable legacy. Fans are abuzz with excitement at the announcement of the legendary country music artist’s inaugural rock album! Initially hesitant about the nomination, feeling she hadn’t “earned it,” Dolly, now 77, was formally inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame last year.

Although she graciously accepted the recognition, Dolly appears intent on demonstrating her worthiness of her position in the rock world. Now, fans can mark their calendars for the official release date of her highly anticipated rock album, a promise she made following her induction.
According to reports, Dolly initially had doubts about being inducted into the Rock Hall, feeling that others might be more deserving due to her extensive career in country music. However, both the public and the Hall’s voters made it clear that Dolly deserved the honor. Following her induction in November 2022, she wasted no time in working on an album to establish her legacy in rock music.

Entitled *Rockstar*, Dolly’s rock debut is scheduled for release on November 17. The album, which brings her closer to rock stardom, features a total of 30 tracks—nine original compositions and 21 covers of iconic songs, with special appearances by the original artists themselves. Standout tracks include a fresh interpretation of Sting’s “Every Breath You Take” and a duet with her goddaughter Miley Cyrus on “Wrecking Ball.”
The record is brimming with celebrity presence, showcasing appearances by music legends such as Stevie Nicks, Steven Tyler, Sir Paul McCartney, and Elton John.

In a recent interview on *The View*, Dolly shared her thoughts on being inducted into the Hall of Fame, saying:

“At first, I didn’t believe I was worthy of it, but after hearing the reasons for my recognition, I agreed to accept the honor if they insisted.”

She further commented, “However, I felt the need to prove myself deserving of a place in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.”

*Rockstar* features a star-studded cast, including artists like Richie Sambora, Sting, Steve Perry, Ann Wilson, and many others who contributed to the project.
Fans can anticipate revamped renditions of timeless hits such as “Open Arms,” a special duet on “Night Moves” with Chris Stapleton, and a grand collaboration on “Let It Be” featuring Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, Peter Frampton, and Mick Fleetwood.

Dolly shared her appreciation in a statement to *Billboard*:

“I am truly grateful for the opportunity to collaborate with music legends and bring new life to these iconic tracks. Singing these songs brought me immense joy, and I hope that listeners will find as much pleasure in this album as I did in its creation.”
At the age of 77, Dolly remains a source of inspiration, displaying no indications of deceleration. Witnessing her enduring passion for music and innovation is truly motivating!
