In 2022, Parton was nominated into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. She took to Twitter/X to deny it, record how could she not “want the votes to be divided because of me so I have to respectfully bow my head.”

Dolly took “Purple Rain” to spin emotions
On November 17, 2023, Parton’s dream of becoming a bona fide rock star came true with the release of Rockstar, in which she covered a series of iconic hits, including “Purple Rain” by Prince.
Thundering guitars accompany Parton’s crystal clear vocals as she glides through her evocative lyrics with intense emotional energy.
Fans were quick to point out the performance as one of her best, highlighting the tweaks in the arrangements and how “it grows on you,” one fan wrote.
Another fan said it was proof that she deserved to be nominated for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.
“I will listen to purple rain dolly parton all day long and beyond and forever until I leave this earth and no one can stop me,” a third user exclaimed.
“It’s not me crying,” one fan wrote.
Another chimed in, “You need this. Trust me.”
Dolly Parton’s Rockstar has some originals but mostly consists of covers.
The country legend recreates everything from Miley Cyrus’s “Wrecking Ball” and Blondie’s “Heart of Glass” to “What’s Up?.” by 4 Non Blondes. She even recruited the original singers of those classics for a bold 30-song collaboration album.
By the sounds of things, Dolly Parton has now earned her rightful place in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.
