Country music legend Dolly Parton, 77, recently revealed she’s retiring from touring but remains committed to creating music. In an interview, she stated, “I have no intention of going on a full-blown tour anymore.” Despite her decision, Parton plans occasional special shows and festivals.

She also discloses her venture into rock ‘n’ roll, inspired by her husband’s musical taste, and discusses her NBC special, “Dolly Parton’s Mountain Magic holiday.” Additionally, Parton collaborates with Reese Witherspoon on the film “Run, Rose, Run,” adapted from her novel co-written with James Patterson.
