celeb news Is Dolly Parton immune to being canceled?

[Mattyboy]

I just noticed that her new album is released under “Big Machine”, Taylor’s formal label, which Scooter and used to own, has Dr. Luke in one of her songs writing credits & also collaborated with “Lizzo” on one of her tracks. Could only Dolly get away with all this? I love her btw, just noticed all this.

she could say free palestine and its over

[Big Bad Wolf]

Seems like it. I remember when she was called out for her racist rodeo show or whatever. That was years ago.

 

But look at the industry. Dr. Luke was accused of SA and still working and collecting hits unscathed, Lizzo is doing just fine and won an activism award or something AFTER the lawsuit. So why would Dolly be canceled?

[alexrex]

Dr Luke happened to produce one of Miley's signatures songs. That doesn't make her a bad person to record a cover of a song.

 

Big Machine...well, Taylor is not a better person than Scott Borchetta and Scooter Braun. She's showing her true colors lately. 

 

Who cares about Lizzo's "controversy"? 

 

Dolly is a legend, and an angel. So ahead of her time, and she would get cancelled if she did something bad. This is not.

people don’t know or probably just dgaf 

[ALΞX]

What would you really cancel at this point? Lol she’s already been in the industry for almost a century. 🌚

[madonnas]

I mean her working with kid rock is a much bigger offense than Lizzo lol

 

the dr Luke thing is a bit different bc it’s a cover of a 2013 song.  
 

really, there’s not much substance to the issues brought up in your OP

[Elusive Chanteuse]

she is a national treasure

Her massive implants double as shields against any and all potential attacks on her character 

[KatyPrismSpirit]

Sheryl Crow is under Big Machine too? So ******* what? Its not Dolly’s fault that Taylor didnt read her contract properly at age 14 lol.

[Geraldine]

imagine cancelling her for that dumb ass reason in the op

[UnusualBoy]

She's harmless and a sweetheart and none of those things are reasons to get her cancelled tbh.

[GhostBox]

If she came out as the liberal Democrat she is that would probably turn off a big chunk of her base. But she keeps riding both sides to keep everyone happy. 💀

 

I like her personally

[Fitzswiftie]

All the reasons OP listed seem small considering the sole press controversy this cycle has been vis-à-vis working with Kid Rock

[RT Air]

Dolly is a saint, every misstep she might take or has ever taken will forever fade next to her contributions to music and her astounding humanitarian work and support for charities. I will always root for her

[Alyssa Edwards]

Being part of a label that Taylor Swift has bad blood with <<<<<< Taking a private jet to the poossy waxer that lives next door to your house.

 

[StonedSoulPicnic]

Big Machine: Most people don't care about this. Big Machine's feud with Taylor isn't going to stop people from listening to Carly Pearce.

Dr. Luke: People who work behind the scenes aren't widely known. He's still scoring hits.

Lizzo: Again, most people don't care about this. Millions of people are still listening to her music.

"But like I say, I love everybody. I don’t criticize, I don’t condone nor condemn. I just accept them. But anyhow, just because I love you don’t mean I don’t love Kid Rock in that God way.”

 

This was weird but I don't think it makes her a bad person. Her support for trans people is well documented.

[Kimi]

the only semi problematic is lizzo collab, luck song is a cover and taylors money beef is taylors problem nothing to do with dolly

[Erreur2 La Nature]

People who spend their days trying to cancel everyone on the internet should contact a psychologist to get some help, seriously.

[Lightbringer007]

she's not free from criticism, but the difference between her and others is that shes very much aware of her words and knows common sense. Also shes a freaken legend whos done so much good, that any small missteps are just noise

[PoisonPill]

What’s wrong with working with Lizzo?

[BrokenMachine]

Her legacy and contributions to music are way bigger than whatever might get her 'canceled'. Her main fanbase might leave her if she came out as democrat, but she has her own decision of not talking about politics in public

 

[Cain]

If everyone had to avoid people Taylor Swift has had problems with then half of Hollywood would be out of work

[Legend ReX]

We literally have a COVID vaccine because of Dolly. She has literally saved millions of lives. You can’t really cancel someone after that.
