“I really think it’s some of the best work I’ve ever done,” DollyParton revealed when she sat down with HodaKotb.
"I never thought of myself as a rock star," she noted of her first reaction to the news."I found out later that they give it to you if you’ve influenced other people. I found out more about it. But I had said at the start I didn’t want to accept it because I didn’t think I’d earned it. And still ain’t sure.""I thought, 'Well, if they wanna give it to me anyhow, I’m going to accept it gracefully,'" she told Hoda.
The album is set for a 2023 release, and it's just one of the things she's looking forward to in the year ahead. "My hopes for the new year is a little more kindness, a little more love and a little more tryin’ to pull together instead of falling apart," the"Jolene" singer explained."I’m gonna try my best to try to bring as much joy as I can, and lift people up as much as I can in my way. I just think we all need to try a little harder. I don’t care what our politics are or religion or our color or anything else.
She said that's her New Year's resolution,"To try to make as much of that happen as I can through songs or through giving or through whatever it may be.", just received some unexpected funding to help her do even more of that than she already does.as part of the Bezos Courage and Civility Award. "I said, 'Are you telling me that you’re giving me $100 million for my charities?'" Parton recalled."And he said, 'Yeah, that’s what I’m telling you. No strings attached, except that it all has to go to charity.' And I started to cry on the phone. I was just thinkin’ of all the great things that I could do for so many needy people. And I just thought, 'Wow, thank you, God.
