For the Love of Dolly!

There are few givens in the world. Death. Taxes. And Dolly Parton. Is there anyone out there who doesn't like Dolly Parton? She appeals to gays, straights, city slickers, bumpkins... And did I mention gays?

Yep, you'll be shocked to hear that some of Dolly's biggest fans just happen to be homosexuals. And this weekend on Logo, you'll get a chance to see the amazing documentary, For the Love of Dolly, which is all about said fans. The film takes a look at the people who live to love Dolly Parton, including a gay couple who's collection of Dolly memorabilia gets so out of control, they consider moving into their garage. Yee-haw!



These guys love Dolly. Lots.

Watch the movie this Saturday, March 17th (yes, St. Patrick's Day) at 9pm. Until then, go to LogoOnline and watch an amazing collection of Dolly music videos, which include lots of bluegrass and gospel tinged songs. You won't find the classics ("9 to 5," "Here You Come Again," "Islands in the Stream") but you'll discover some pretty amazing videos (14, to be specific). And what really stands out is her sublime musicianship. Kitsch and wigs and sequins aside, she's a phenomenal artist.

More Dolly after the jump...

Check out her cover of "Shine" the Soul Collective hit, which won her a Grammy. And "Eagle When She Flies" which is a tribute to women everywhere (the video features cameos from everyone from Eleanor Roosevelt to Mother Theresa to Cher!). Or if you're feeling churchy, watch her mega-anthem, "Hello God," which may covert you to a full-on Dolly worshipper.

And you can check out the flipbook of fun Dolly pics, too.

Then go rent The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas and warm that old hooker's heart of gold inside of you.
Fine and dandy...



Love ya, Dolly!
