Dolly Parton is well known for many things and she can now add TikToker to that list.

Recently the country icon was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, but flipped the record on everyone. Parton joked she intended to re-brand as a “rock star” in alignment with her similarly titled album Rockstar on the way.

Kicking off this royal declaration, Dolly took to another gargantuan presence in pop culture—TikTok—by starting her own account on the social media giant.

Ralph Fiennes, for example, is no stranger to method acting. Back when he worked on Schindler's List as Amon Goeth, Steven Spielberg commented on his commitment to the part, both studying historical documents and published diary entries and gaining weight for the part.

Home Alone 2: Lost in New York director Chris Columbus says he wishes he could cut President Donald Trump's cameo from the film, though he acknowledges that to do so could force him out of the country.

Mike Johnson Just Tried To Blame Medicaid Cuts On Video Games—And It Didn't Go Over Well

House Speaker Mike Johnson was called out after he erroneously claimed that Medicaid cuts are happening due to "young men" who play video games "all day" instead of going to work.
