Dolly Parton

Dolly Rebecca Parton (born January 19, 1946, Sevierville, Tennessee, USA) is an American country singer and film actress who has written more than six hundred songs and reached the top position on Billboard country charts twenty-five times. In her homeland, she is recognized as one of the most successful singers in her genre, having also received the title "Queen of Country." She and Reba McEntire are the only country artists to have reached the top of the chart across four different decades. In 2016, Parton (thanks to a re-recording of the hit "Jolene" together with the group Pentatonix) became the only artist whose hits appeared in the top 20 of the Hot Country Songs chart for all the last six decades consecutively (the 1960s—2010s).
