2022 Truly will be the year of Dolly Parton. She's coming out with her own line of baking mixes, we just found out she's nominated to be inducted into the Rock n' Roll Hall of Fame and NOW she's going to be hosting the Academy of Country Music Awards coming up March 7th. HOLY COW!!
Here's the official press release.
“We are honored to welcome DOLLY PARTON back to be the centerpiece of this landmark 57th ACADEMY OF COUNTRY MUSIC AWARDS show,” said ACM CEO DAMON WHITESIDE. “DOLLY is the most iconic and multitalented artist of all time, and we are proud that she is a friend and supporter of the ACADEMY, a previous host, and a 13-time ACADEMY OF COUNTRY MUSIC AWARD recipient. There is no one better than DOLLY to represent the ACM AWARDS brand and Country music on a global scale as we move to streaming and show the world that ‘this is how we Country’ by delivering one of the most exhilarating and innovative shows in our history to audiences worldwide.”
"I am so excited to be hosting the ACM AWARDS on MARCH 7th from VEGAS,” said PARTON. “Watch for us because we're going to have some fun.”
The show will be TWO HOURS and will have no commercial interruptions. How is that? Because it will be streamed exclusively on Prime Video starting at 8/7c on March 7th. We'll be watching Dolly!
As far as the Rock n' Roll Hall of fame thing. It's a fan voted award so you can and should help vote her in by hitting up the RockHall.com website. You can vote once a day until April 29th.
