Dolly Parton jokes about plastic surgeons as she hits 80
The country star teased the remake of her 50-year-old song
As Dolly Parton marked her 80th birthday on 19 January, the country star is taking a moment to reflect on her life.
She took to her Instagram account and shared a video while taking a jab at her experience with plastic surgery.
"Well, hey there! It’s Dolly, and I’ve made it! I’m 80 years old," she began. "Can you believe that? Anyway, what do you give somebody that’s 80 years old? Well, you don’t take gifts. You give things."
The artist went on to say, "I’m gonna give you the gift of a bunch of friends that stopped by to help me sing on a song called ‘Light of a Clear Blue Morning,’ a song I wrote years ago. In fact, it’s 50 years old. We did a new version of it, Kent Wells producing it, and then I’m giving you the gift of Queen Latifah, Reba McEntire, Miley Cyrus and Lainey Wilson, with David Foster playing the piano."
The singer concluded, "Anyway, thank you for all the birthday wishes. And I hope I live another 80 years, but I hope I’ve still got my plastic surgeons in line."
The queen of country singers also talked about aging in a recent chat with People for her birthday special cover.
Parton said she "ain’t got time to get old" while teasing new music in the future.
"I ain’t got time to dwell on that. That’s not what I’m thinking about," she declared.
Parton added, "I don’t know what I’m going to be doing tomorrow. Whatever comes, I’ll give it my best."
