Dolly Parton Cancels Vegas Residency Because Of Health Concerns

Dolly Parton cancelled her Las Vegas residency because of health concerns. 

She said in an update that she’s responding well to meds and treatments, but it makes her too “swimmy-headed” (lightheaded) to perform.

“I have great doctors and I’m doing really well, and they assure me that everything I have is treatable, so I’m going with that.  I’ve told you before that I’ve always had problems with my kidney stones. Lord, they dig more stones out of me a year than the rock quarry in Rockwood, Tennessee.”

Dolly also said her doctors are trying to strengthen her immune and digestive systems.  She compared herself to a classic car that’s being restored.  She’s been keeping busy, though and is still recording music. 

“I’m working hard on getting my museum and my hotel open in Nashville later this year.  And I am spending a lot of time writing and reworking on my Broadway musical.  It’s called ‘Dolly, a True Original Musical’.”
