Video Description

Dolly Parton sits down with Ray Martin to discuss her incredible life, from her humble beginnings as a "white trash country kid" to becoming a global superstar. In this candid conversation, Dolly opens up about the real stories behind her most famous songs, revealing the two-part inspiration for "Jolene" and the emotional reason she wrote "I Will Always Love You" for Porter Wagoner. She shares the incredible moment she first heard Whitney Houston's version on the radio and the profound impact of Whitney's death. Plus, Dolly tells the legendary story of why she had to turn down Elvis Presley's request to record "I Will Always Love You"—a business decision that made her cry all night. She also gets personal about her image, her philosophy on plastic surgery, the "town tramp" who inspired her look, her battle with depression in the 80s, and the truth about her reclusive husband of 47 years, Carl Dean. *Dolly Parton: Extended Interview (2013)* ► Subscribe: http://9Soci.al/chmP50wA97J ► WATCH Full Episodes on 9NOW: https://9now.app.link/uNP4qBkmN6 *MORE VIDEOS like this one* ► https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lPPjjDIWScw&t=391s ► https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ffo9b6HgaBw ► https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BS01rNwQ_m8&t=2s FOLLOW 60 Minutes Australia ► Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/60minutes9 ► TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@60minutes9 ► Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/60Minutes9 ABOUT 60 Minutes Australia 60 Minutes Australia have been telling the world’s greatest stories for over 40 years.
