During Dolly Parton’s birthday celebration at the Grand Ole Opry, Elle King had a few too many drinks and ended up making a fool of herself up on stage. She was supposed to perform a song to honor Dolly, but she ended up messing up the lyrics and blurting out profanity instead. She definitely got heat for the incident from country music fans, but Dolly did say she wants everyone to forgive and forget!

She finally addressed the incident for the first time on social media.
