LOS ANGELES — An iconic speech from an iconic performer.
In a feisty six-minute address, Dolly Parton reminded the audience at Friday night’s MusiCares‘ Person of the Year event why she was the 2019 recipient — not just because of her philanthropy, which the Grammys‘ MusiCares charity honors with the award, but also because of her fiercely comedic personality.
As part of her wide-ranging speech, the 73-year-old singer thanked the show’s featured artists — including Miley Cyrus, Katy Perry, Kacey Musgraves, Chris Stapleton — for performing their own takes on her songs, comparing the night to a different kind of intimate experience.
