#Beyoncé pays tribute to #DollyParton, calling her “the barometer” and thanking her for the impact she had on the world: In a statement posted to her website, Beyoncé wrote, “Dolly, you were the barometer. The north star. Bold and brilliant. Talented and tenacious. You taught so many lessons on how to be uniquely oneself. I am grateful for your art, your heart, your generosity, your humor, your entrepreneurship. I’m honored that I had the privilege to work with you. I will treasure that forever. Thank you for your profound impact on the world. You are an angel who has made this world a happier place because of your joyful art. You are truly one of one. Rest peacefully.” Beyoncé had worked with Parton and recorded a reworked cover of “Jolene” for her 2024 album “Cowboy Carter.”
