Relax, y\u2019all.<\/p>\n

Dolly Parton doesn\u2019t believe Beyonc\u00e9 was purposely shut out by the 2024 CMA Awards.<\/p>\n

The 78-year-old music icon spoke to\u00a0Variety\u00a0in an interview published Tuesday and reacted to Bey\u2019s chart-topping country album, \u201cCowboy Carter,\u201d\u00a0being excluded from this year\u2019s CMA Awards nominations list.<\/p>\n

\u201cWell, you never know,\u201d said Parton. \u201cThere\u2019s so many wonderful country artists that, I guess probably the country music field, they probably thought, well, we can\u2019t really leave out some of the ones that spend their whole life doing that. But I didn\u2019t even realize that until somebody asked me that question.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n<\/span><\/span>Parton gave Bey, 43, her blessing to cover her hit song \u201cJolene\u201d on \u201c\u201cCowboy Carter.\u201d\u00a0She\u2019s also featured on the album in the\u00a030-second interlude, \u201cDolly P.\u201d<\/p>\n

Calling Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s latest work \u201ca wonderful album,\u201d Parton said the \u201cHalo\u201d singer should \u201cbe very, very proud\u201d of making \u201cCowboy Carter.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd I think everybody in country music welcomed her and thought that, that was good,\u201d Parton continued.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo I don\u2019t think it was a matter of shutting out, like doing that on purpose. I think it was just more of what the country charts and the country artists were doing, that do that all the time, not just a specialty album,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

Parton further praised Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s\u00a0historic country album\u00a0and noted she was \u201cfortunate\u201d to be on it.<\/p>\n

\u201cWell, \u2018Jolene\u2019 was in Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s, and I thought that was a great album,\u201d Parton said. \u201cShe\u2019s a country girl in Texas and Louisiana, so she grew up with that base. It wasn\u2019t like she just appeared out of nowhere.\u201d<\/p>\n

When asked if she\u2019d duet \u201cJolene\u201d with Bey, Parton replied, \u201cOh yeah. I\u2019m open to anything.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cCowboy Carter\u201d spent four weeks at No. 1 on the Top Country Albums chart.<\/p>\n

\u201cTexas Hold \u2019Em,\u201d\u00a0the hit single off the album, was on top of the Hot Country Songs for 10 weeks.<\/p>\n

Despite the success, Beyonc\u00e9 failed to garner a single nod from the Country Music Association.<\/p>\n

Morgan Wallen scored the most 2024 CMA nominations, with seven. Post Malone, who is featured on \u201cCowboy Carter,\u201d received four nominations for collaborating with Wallen, 31, on the song \u201cI Had Some Help.\u201d<\/p>\n

The award ceremony will take place in November.<\/p>\n

Beyonc\u00e9 previously ventured into country music with her song \u201cDaddy Lessons\u201d from her\u00a02016 album \u201cLemonade.\u201d\u00a0She performed the track at the 2016 CMA Awards with the Chicks \u2014 an event that\u00a0seemingly inspired her to make a country album.<\/p>\n

In an\u00a0Instagram post about \u201cCowboy Carter\u201d shared in March, Beyonc\u00e9 wrote, \u201cIt was born out of an experience that I had years ago where I did not feel welcomed \u2026 and it was very clear that I wasn\u2019t.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cBut because of that experience, I did a deeper dive into the history of Country music and studied our rich musical archive,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

While \u201cCowboy Carter\u201d didn\u2019t get attention from the CMAs, the album is an odds-on favorite for the 2025 Grammy Awards.<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
