Don't Mess With Dolly

Filed under: Howard Stern > Dolly Parton

dollly.jpg

Last week, Howard Stern and his crew manipulated recordings from some Dolly Parton audio books into stuff that was seemingly racist and sexually graphic.

Well, Dolly's pissed!

Miz Parton just released the following statement through her reps:

I have never been so shocked, hurt and humiliated in all my life. I cannot believe what Howard Stern has done to me. In a blue million years, I would never have such vulgar things come out of my mouth. They have done editing or some sort of trickery to make this horrible, horrible thing. Please accept my apology for them and certainly know I had nothing to do with this. If there was ever going to be a lawsuit, it’s going to be over this. Just wanted you to know that I am completely devastated by this.

And there you have it.

We love Howard, but….

We love Dolly more!

Then how about you look at people when they have appearances on the show…..seems right after those people happen to be the top searched on Google trends….does anyone listen you are a joke at best for making that comment! Funny fact Dolly and the rest of those like her have no sense of humor….it's all a bunch of trickery ahahahaha losers!

      Re: yourdumb

      YOU are exactly right. .they call that Slander and Defamation. You can have free speech but you cant harm or hurt others doing it. As far as it being obvious that Dolly didnt say these things Of course. BUT on youtube there are lots of comments about "I cant believe she would say that" im sure thats why she is acting out this way. I dont blame her at all!

      Dolly Owns more than record Deals. .She owns T.V. production companies and Movie Production Companies along with Radio stations and Theme Parks. She is Said to be worth well over $700 million And is the 4th Wealthiest Female entertainer. .you don't see her in Forbes because her deals and comapnies arent public and she isn't forced to release them! Dont be ridiculous!

      Dolly's showing her age. She wouldn't know a funny bone if a clown came along and tried to stick it in her dried out coochie. The only thing the guys did wrong was chop a tape up of a 62-year old woman who thinks she's hipper than she really is. But, come on….I'm sure that there's still plenty of stern fans out there that wish they could camp out between those enormous 10 year old boobs attached to a 62-year-old woman.

      Free speech perhaps. He is a worthless piece of shit. There are some things that you just don't mess with. I mean come on he has enough slop on his show to last him his whole pathetic lifetime.

Howard has no boundaries, no respect, nothing and yet tons of people ( women) still go and listen to his BS and allow him to demean them and make fun of them at their expense,,, its insane! Dolly is classy and would have no part in that. I hope she sues the pants off of him! HAHA its howards turn be caught with his pants down!

      I love both Dolly and Howard and I heard the segment she is talking about - it is CLEARLY a skit and anyone who hears it, unless they are out of their ever loving minds, can tell that it's a funny 'mashup' and not actually Dolly. She's worrying over nothing….she is a wonderful, talented lady and anyone who has ever heard of Dolly KNOWS she's not really like that!

      Re: Neb

      Well considering that Howard made 500 million in the last 5 years just from Sirius I would say that Dolly is going to lose that battle. Howard has a lot more than just a radio show. he has a movie, he has books, he has his own TV channel and has had various producing credits over the years.

      and please…don't confuse Howard with Imus, people actually listen to Howard. Check Imus's ratings and let me know if anyone is listening.

      I hope Dolly does sue cause she will lose lose lose.

      Your going to need more than 700 million to be worth more than Hampton Howie.

      She will lose this case all day long if she files. very clear cut.

      1) She is a public figure; 2) Unde the fair comment rule, commentary - including parody - can be made; 3) the parody is so far out there that there is no risk that any reasonable person would conclude the matters of pardoy to be true.

      No lawsuit. First Amendment 101. This is exactly what the US Supreme Court decided in Falwell v. Hustler (Larry Flynt).

      Before any of you go out and make a judgement on what has happened I would listen to the tapes the Perez is talking about….it is obviously a tape spliced together and in no way could be taken seriously. There is no way that anyone in their right mind would take that seriously. FYI….Howard has a COMEDY talk show, not a CNN show. Get a clue people. Also, no way Dolly is worth more than Howard…check you facts fools.

      Re: artie lange will eat you

      I will Just agree to disagree. They are both worth a ton of Money. .if she does file a lawsuit I can see that she does of some standing. I was a fan of him and still think he is funny. Im just a bigger fan of Dolly so I have to stay loyal. I did not confuse him with Imus obviously what Imus said was far worse BUT you can surely understand Dolly's complaint in that she is trying to appeal to ALL ages since she is in the works of producing a children's show. .so this could potentially be damaging.

      86

      Did someone really just try to say that Dolly was worth more than Howard?

      That is pretty funny. You Dolly loving idiots need to check your facts cause you have obviously been living under a rock. Howard has the most successful show on Satellite Radio. Regular morning drive radio collapsed after he left it, they lost BOAT loads of revenue and ratings. Check your facts and then get back to me.

      More people listen to Howard Stern every morning than listen to Dolly all week.

      87

      I do not understand Dolly's point about her being a family entertainer.

      What child would be listening to a pay service? What parent would allow their child to listen to an adult show? Those are the real questions and they aren't Howard's problems.

      Furthermore, who would listen to Howard and not know what that is. Shatner was in today and they played him clips of his audio book and he LOVED it.

      If Howard is so nasty and bad then how come Perez goes on his show?

      I am willing to bet that Howard has played more of role in Perez's popularity than Dolly has.

      Millions of people listen to him because he is FUNNY. You people who have NO sense of humor need to get over it and move on.

      She won't file suit, and nothing will come of it. If she is lucky Howie won't bring this up tomorrow, though I hope he DOES cause it's a riot.
