Dolly Parton
Dolly Parton recently revealed to Rolling Stone that the upcoming Parton/Katy Perry duet at the 51st ACM Awards will include the Parton classics “Coat Of Many Colors” and “Jolene.”
“We were going to do ‘Coat of Many Colors’ together as a duet and then she got the big idea, why don’t we sing ‘Jolene’ together because she loves that song and since it’s going to be one of the movies,” explains Parton. “I go, yeah, why not? So I’m going to try to combine the ‘Coat of Many Colors’ and ‘Jolene’ to make it like a really even more special moment to perform with her.”
Parton is gearing up for a busy 2016, with the release of the CD Pure & Simple, and an upcoming United States tour.
The ACM Awards will air live from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas April 3 at 8 p.m. ET on CBS.
