Look out for a bright pink rocking chair the next time you get your fill of chicken and dumplings at Cracker Barrel. Country legend Dolly Parton has partnered with the restaurant to create a special edition of its signature rocker -- Dolly style. It is currently for sale alongside some other Dolly goodies: a book of photos spanning her life and a collectors' edition of her hit album, 'Backwoods Barbie,' featuring three new tunes."We both represent family and that down home feeling," Dolly told The Boot of her project with Cracker Barrel.
The expanded version of the 'Backwoods Barbie' CD includes the new songs 'Berry Pie,' 'Hallelujah Holiday' and 'Rose of My Heart.' Dolly thought 'Berry Pie' would be especially fitting because, she says, "it's a little love song that's happy and joyful, but it's about making a berry pie for a guy -- 'cause the way to a man's heart is through his stomach!"
The Boot happened to be on the phone with Dolly just minutes after news broke of her receiving the Academy of Country Music's 2009 Jim Reeves International Award, which is presented to a country music artist who has proven international success. So, we asked her why she feels she's known all over the world, whereas other country singers tend to have a hard time gaining popularity outside of the U.S.
"I've been around a long time," Dolly humbly answered. "So maybe this [award] is just people saying, 'Hey, you're an old lady. We're gonna give you this... now go home!'"
