Bitch Slap of the Week: Dissed by Dolly

Posted by Michael Musto at 5:48 PM, March 28, 2008

The other week, I was photographed for a head shot by a director who wanted to submit me for the Dolly Parton video he was doing in which both regular people and notables lipsynch a rousing Jesus song (which I was assured is not the least bit religious, it's just about belief, blah blah). All was fine and I was ready for the closeup that would finally get my face below the Bible belt, as it were, but then I was told a few days later, "Sorry, they decided to go with non celebrities." Yeah so what's the problem? My belief in Dolly is ovah!

Take it as a compliment Hunny.

it's not like it's a good Dolly song like "Coat of Many Colors" or "Two Doors Down" or something from "Best Little Whorehouse"

Maybe you can get a part in the new Linda Ronstadt video instead. She's got a waay better voice.

Dolly is so overexposed, overrated, and overly adored by the gays, her voice has always been thin and she wrote a few good songs about 30 years ago, but I never had any desire to see her in concert. And she lipsynchs anyway.

You turd! Dolly Parton is beyond wonderful, and just because they did not chose you does not give you an excuse to dog on Dolly. She is the best singer and songwriter ever and her songs are better today than ever!
