Dolly Parton, at 77, has released her debut rock album 'Rockstar,' a 30-track epic featuring collaborations with music legends like Paul McCartney, Sting, CCR, Elton John, and John Fogerty. The album, which includes cover versions, has been praised as a 'rock epic' by reviewer Adrian Thrills. Parton also made headlines with her performance of 'Rocky Top' at the Georgia vs. Tennessee game, where she was escorted onto the field by Peyton Manning. Despite some technical difficulties, her performance and the album have been met with widespread acclaim.
Fresh off conquering the rock world with her all-star new album, Dolly Parton returned to her Tennessee roots Saturday with a rendition of "Rocky Top" at the University of Tennessee’s football game against the top-ranked Georgia Bulldogs https://t.co/0gRFtwHPm3
Across Rockstar, Dolly Parton takes on some of the most familiar songs ever written and manages to say something new with them; something quintessentially Dolly, writes @hiyalauren. https://t.co/BukUHviAm3

Dolly!
Dolly Parton being interviewed during a CBS college football game. What a time to be alive.
Dolly Parton’s performance of Rocky Top was hardly smooth. Seemed like the country music legend was having a hard time hearing and singing along with marching band. Peyton Manning as her escort was a nice touch.
Rocky Top Royalty. https://t.co/2UWf2egkaX
Dolly Parton just classin' the joint up. Absolute legend.

Laughing at the Georgia sideline just kind of standing around and watching Dolly Parton sing between quarters here at Neyland Stadium.
Peyton Manning escorted Dolly Parton onto the field for her performance. Tennessee has a monarchy and we didn’t even know it. https://t.co/n1wZO7sEiK
Hello, Dolly https://t.co/rM8wDXEZpW
Let’s go Rocky Top!
Stars are out today at Neyland Stadium: Peyton Manning, country music star Megan Moroney and the iconic Dolly Parton, who will sing "Rocky Top" at the end of the first quarter. Dolly's buses were parked near where Georgia's team buses are supposed to park. Who wins that battle?
The record is a 30-track whopper comprised of cover versions, some performed with the original artist. As duet and cover records of this type tend to be, it's a mixed bag. @hiyalauren on Dolly Parton’s Rockstar. https://t.co/oKcU1GsKa8

. @DollyParton proves she is the GOAT by dropping a brand new ROCK album last night featuring all the legends. https://t.co/bIi2vUy8YG
Today the superstar “Dolly Parton “will sing Rocky Top at the @UGAfootballLive vs @Vol_Football game Will DOLLY be a difference maker ? My VBDI says we LOVE “DOLLY “but she can’t tackle - block or run - @KirbySmartUGA UGA team 43 - Vols 24 @SEC https://t.co/tmCJv1R584
FYI: Dolly Parton is performing "Rocky Top" after the first quarter. They are bringing a special platform on the field for her so she can wear heels. 👑
THE DOLLY PARTON FACTOR Tennessee and Georgia is the most-bet game on @DKSportsbook today, and the Vols brought Dolly Parton herself to Neyland Stadium. It’s a big game on Rocky Top, but will Georgia see the light of a clear blue morning? #DKPartner https://t.co/Dp64sLTjLQ https://t.co/qDoZSU9rML

Despite the length, despite the cheesiness, you can’t really come away from this record without the sense that it is the work of a musical hero – and a proper rock star. @hiyalauren on Dolly Parton’s Rockstar. https://t.co/3ka5JYfxiD
