Dolly Parton, admired by many, recently said that due to her age of 77, she is unlikely to go on any extensive tours in the future.
She stated that while she still intends to play live on occasion for special events or festivals over the weekend, it does not make sense for her to be away from home and her spouse for extended periods.
The Queen of Country said that such long absences would be terrible for her if someone at home needed her but would also be unfair to fans who rely on witnessing the entire event.
As a result, Parton wants to stay near her friends and family while continuing to make music and entertain in other ways.
Dolly Parton, an entertainment queen whose star power has only risen with age, knows how to stay busy.
She has not only released a new album, Run, Rose, Run, and co-written the novel of the same name, but she has also moved into new worlds, such as developing her line of dog toys and producing movies.
The success of her book has led to a film contract in which Parton will star. Despite cutting back on touring, she appears to be committed to pursuing a diverse range of interests.
