Dolly Parton just hit pause on Vegas… even legends have a “not today” button. She canceled her residency over health issues, saying her meds have her feeling “swimmy-headed.” That’s Dolly-speak for, “I might accidentally sing Jolene in slow motion.” She says it’s treatable, doctors are helping, and she’s still recording music.

Which is a very calm response for a guy who’s probably been “engaged” to twelve different women on the internet this week.
