Watch: Dolly Parton Makes First Public Appearance Since Canceling Las Vegas Residency Over HealthEven in the final months of her life, Dolly Parton continued working that 9 to 5, remaining upbeat about her overall well-being. Though the country music legend was notoriously private about her personal life, it wasn’t all takin’ and no givin’ when it came to discussing her health, the icon sharing a series of updates prior to her recent death at the age of 80. Last September, the Tennessee native announced she would be postponing her Las Vegas residency due to “some health challenges” she was experiencing, later canceling it entirely.”My doctors tell me that I must have a few procedures,” Parton shared on Instagram. “As I joked with them, it must be time for my 100,000-mile check-up, although it’s not the usual trip to see my plastic surgeon!” While noting she would “need a little time to get show ready,” she quelled retirement concerns, adding, “Don’t worry about me quittin’ the business because God hasn’t said anything about stopping yet. But, I believe He is telling me to slow down right now so l can be ready for more big adventures with all of you.”photosDolly Parton and Carl Dean’s… Read More
