The music and acting icon has made her triumphant debut on the social media app.

Dolly Parton is well known for many things and she can now add TikToker to that list.

Recently the country icon was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, but flipped the record on everyone. Parton joked she intended to re-brand as a “rock star” in alignment with her similarly titled album Rockstar on the way.


Kicking off this royal declaration, Dolly took to another gargantuan presence in pop culture—TikTok—by starting her own account on the social media giant.

Many people stated this was a welcome addition to the platform.

In fact, it was impossible to locate a single person with a negative reaction over the platform’s newest member.

Trump Ripped For Hypocrisy After Claiming He 'Doesn't Know' Who Crypto Founder He Just Pardoned Is

President Donald Trump was criticized after he claimed during a sit-down interview with 60 Minutes correspondent Norah O'Donnell that he doesn't know who Binance cryptocurrency exchange founder Changpeng Zhao is despite pardoning him less than two weeks ago.

In 2023, Zhao pleaded guilty to violating anti–money laundering laws after Binance allegedly failed to report suspicious transactions involving groups such as Hamas and al-Qaida. He later apologized, paid a $50 million fine, and served nearly four months in prison before being pardoned by Trump.

Gavin Newsom Expertly Trolls Trump Administration With Parody Spirit Halloween Costume Memes

California Governor Gavin Newsom had social media users cackling after he, in a series of photos on X, mocked Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, and Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. with photoshopped meme versions of Spirit Halloween costumes.

Noem, who has led the nationwide immigration crackdown that continues to tear apart families around the country, is the "Border Barbie" of one meme that pokes fun at her for shooting her dog, her penchant for bringing camera crews wherever she goes, and the way South Park writers lampooned her in one of its most widely-seen episodes this year.
