Dolly Parton has an album and a book with James Paterson coming out on March 4th, and she has been working 9 to 5 to get the word out about Run, Rose, Run.
The singer got into the kitchen with Duncan Hines and is releasing some special dessert mixes and frostings with them. She is going to host the American Country Awards next week on Prime Video. And today, Parton announced she teamed up with 1-800-Flowers to curate three rose bouquets in honor of International Women’s Day on May 8th.
“I remember as a little girl, running into the meadows behind our house so I could pick fresh flowers for my mama. I loved the smell and that they felt like a little ray of sunshine that I could share,” recalls Parton. “To this day, I feel the same way. I’m partial to yellow roses, but I love all different kinds of flowers. So, join me and send a little bit of sunshine to the special woman in your life with 1-800-Flowers.com. Plant a seed with love.”
The flower arrangements are Dolly’s Yellow Rose Bouquet, Dolly’s Roses of Many Colors, and Dolly’s ‘Lil Rose Bouquet. They run from $39.99 to $71.99. Each bouquet comes with a digital message from Miss Dolly and an option to add a digital copy of the album and the book.
The bouquets are available from now until March 11th. And if you feel like sending me one with her favorite flower, yellow roses, I won’t send them back!
Before Dolly Parton revealed she would love to sing a duet with Keith Urban, he was singing her songs all by himself. How talented was the 11-year-old, with his signature mullet, singing Applejack back in 1970?
Dolly Parton was recently on GMA talking about her cake line with Duncan Hines, and they asked her who she would like to do a duet with.
“Probably any of the good looking ones,” she said. “I love Keith Urban. I’ve always thought he was one of the most talented cutest guys in the World…I love his writing. And I just think he is dear. So I would be happy to make a big old cake for him and spend all afternoon singing songs.”
The word got back to Mr. Nicole Kidmam, and he wrote to Miss Dolly, “Name the time and place
@DollyParton… we’ll be there.” I am surprised that he didn’t just show up at her doorstep as soon as he heard. That is what I would have done if she said she would want to do anything with me. I wouldn’t give her time to change her mind.
Oh, and Parton wants Kidman to know that she is not trying to hit on her husband. Actually, she paid the Oscar nominee a compliment and called her “Jolene.” Hmmm, is that really a compliment???
CBS parted ways with the American Country Music awards, and Prime Video picked it up. Therefore, they wanted to go big, and they are. They asked Dolly Parton if she would do it, and she said yes!
Actually she said, “I am so excited to be hosting the ACM Awards on March 7 from Vegas. Watch for us because we’re going to have some fun.”
I am not a huge fan of Country Music or awards shows, but I am going to be watching this one because of Miss Dolly.
However, I don’t know why they think she needs co-hosts to help her. She can do it all by herself unless they are thinking of asking Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin to do it!
One last note, the reason why they were able to get Parton to do it, is she releasing her album Run Rose Run on March 4th. You can get exclusive merchandise on Amazon to go with the record and the book which accompanies it that comes out on April 5th.
Dolly Parton is getting into the baking business, and she teamed up with Duncan Hines to release some of her favorite treats in March.
“I have always loved to cook and, growing up in the South, I especially love that authentic Mom and Pop kind of cooking,” said Dolly Parton. “I am excited to launch my own line of cake mixes and frostings with Duncan Hines, bringing that sweet, Southern-style baking experience I enjoy to others.”
What are these scrumptious flavors? They are Dolly Parton’s Southern Style Coconut Flavored Cake Mix, Dolly Parton’s Southern Style Banana Flavored Cake Mix, Dolly Parton’s Creamy Buttercream Frosting, and Dolly Parton’s Chocolate Buttercream Frosting.
I can’t wait to buy them all and make my friend bake them for me. I will make sure to get them before I get period because they will chase those PMS Blues go away.
