Dolly Parton Surpasses 100 Million in Sales
. During a press conference at Glastonbury on Sunday (June 29), Parton was presented with a plaque that commemorated her RIAA-certified sales achievement. The presentation was made by BBC2 Radio's Lauren Laverne, Dolly Records President Danny Nozell and Glastonbury owner Michael Eavis. "I've been so busy making records for the past several decades, I didn't realize I had racked up so many sales. What a great honor to know that I have so many fans that have supported me through the years. Thanks to the RIAA for the acknowledgment and the plaque I feel very honored and proud," says Dolly Parton. According to the Telegraph, when Parton took the stage Sunday afternoon (June 29), "everyone came out for Dolly, leaving the other stages bereft of audiences." The Guardian agreed regarding the show's popularity, calling Parton's performance an undisputed "crowdpleaser" packed with sing-along moments on such hits as "Jolene," "Coat of Many Colors" and "9 to 5." She "had 200,000 people in the palm of her manicured, rhinestone-studded hand," the Guardian reported. "She said it best herself: it was corny, but it was fun." more on this story Radio.com is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
