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.

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.
