Press Releases and Film News / Rest in peace Dolly Parton

Last post by sprite75 - August 25, 2026, 01:27:56 PM

Dolly Parton has passed away

Dolly Parton, who rose from a loving if impoverished upbringing in the mountains of East Tennessee to become the "Queen of Country" music, a Hollywood star and a beloved American icon, has died, her family announced on Tuesday.

Parton was 80.

Parton's nephew, Brian Seaver, announced the news in a video posted on her Instagram. He did not provide details about her death.

Her death comes after Parton suddenly announced in May 2026 that she was canceling a Las Vegas show and said she'd been undergoing treatment for kidney stones for several years.

Rest in peace, Dolly.

Bipolar Disorder has just been horrible. Been kicking my butt lately. Mostly why I haven't been in as much. Gonna try popping in more. Miss it here.

Sending hugs. 🙏🐢

My son came home from school and I asked him what he learned today. He said he learned that gay people liked Sony, lesbians liked JBL and Trans people liked Bose. I told him, "Son, those are just stereotypes".

damn, sorry to hear

a very close friend has had bipolar for years, and has to take lithium.

not sure how it manifests in different people, but he has had several 'episodes' over the years where he just loses it completely. at any other time he's the nicest most calm guy you could hope to meet

I've been making hamburgers according to an old recipe from the 50s. You mix grated onion, salt and pepper, and half and half (surprise ingredient) into the ground beef before forming the patties. Then broil in the oven. Best burgers I've ever made (don't know if I'll ever fry burgers again).

I'm almost afraid to read the book. I love the film, but I know if I read it I'll end up hating the film.

I'm almost afraid to read any of Bret Easton Ellis's other books 

I remember frequently having to put AMERICAN PSYCHO down and walk around the room a bit before continuing !

So, I ended up reading another book by Ellis. The Shards.

They've made a TV show about it starring Wes Bentley from Yellowstone and the son of Richard Gere and daughter of Cindy Crawford.

The show is produced by Ryan Murphy of American Horror Story

my brother told me he's read his latest one and enjoyed it... not sure if that's the same one

Possibly. The Shards came out in 2023. The show just came out a few weeks back.

Last book I know of he did was Imperial Bedrooms, and that was 2010 or so. Sequel to Less Than Zero.
