Dolly Parton Reveals What She Admires About Taylor Swift | Billboard’s 5-Minute Interview

I'm starting to think that Taylor Swift will become Dolly Parton of the Music Industry in the next 20 or 30 years. Like, she started from country music, crossover to pop, and eventually tried different genres. They're both musically inclined; can play multiple instruments, topped the charts with significant hits, sold massive records, and they both were gifted with extraordinary songwriting ability. They always reinvent their style and fashion. A music giant talking about her successor.

Taylor and Dolly should collaborate and do a song together! That could be epic!

It's so wonderful how Dolly celebrates and admires other female talents so openly and honestly. I wish more women did this. Cut the narcissism, jealousy, competition and insecurity.

[RonnyCharles]

I really wish to see Dolly and Taylor collab one day😊

[ShermanCassidy]

I love Dolly Parton, how can you not love Dolly Parton?!?! She is so kind and genuine it’s what I aspire to be. And I think it’s great that she is talking about Taylor Swift and Taylor Swift has done also so much and fought for her own work and she also wants to do her creative thing and not be told what to do. I also really admire Taylor Swift for being super vocal about how she was taken advantage of and that she is not ready to put up with it anymore. I want to see Dolly and Taylor collaboration.
