Dolly parton is a wonderful human.

Gays are ALWAYS the most devoted fans.

@fkd1963 ,

I quite agree.Which is why I made my comment about how some people are never going to change their views simply because some famous people are defending the LBGTQ community.Some people will always be 'stupid,bigoted & pigheaded'.

Suck it shirley phelps, this is a woman!!!

[fkd1963]

@popazz1 It's called bigotry, stupidity, and pigheadedness. These same people would have said "n*gger" in 1960.

[popazz1]

I've no reason to doubt her integrity but surely people must realise that those who are opposed to homosexuality are suddenly not going to change their views simply because 'famous people' are publicly supporting the LBGTQ community.Yes,I know that makes me appear to be jaded but I think realism should be mentioned.Though I hasten to add that the likes of Dolly Parton should be thanked for all they do in support of LBGTQ people.

she is amazing - lgbt are used by the republicans for votes - republicans hide behind the cross and God to profit by hate and homophobia - if lgbt people didnt exist then the republicans would be wearing their white sheets and pillowcase hoods out in public -

thank God for Dolly

She oozes graciousness and such class anyone who dislikes her must suffer from a mental illness in my opinion.

I have a feeling that her views differ greatly from that of her preacher daddy however it's nice to see she's very accepting. Oh if she knew the number of boob jokes that went around about her while I was growing up. Even women thought she was an object....

She made the remark in 1997 in either VOGUE or VANITY FAIR, and later apologized for it. She was criticized by the ADL also.

@MHSingerman What is your source for this quote? Sorry but I can't believe a woman like her would say such a thing.

[MHSingerman]

I always liked her until she made anti-semitic remarks. She wanted to have a tv show about an evangelist, but said it couldn't get made because "there were too many jews in Hollywood". Ever since then, I have looked at her differently.

Lord she is a Superstar for a reason.
