Dolly Parton once again proves that she is the definition of a class act.

In a recent interview, Dolly was asked about Elle King’s performance during her birthday celebration at the Grand Ole Opry.

“Elle is really a great artist. She’s a great girl. She’s been going through a lot of hard things lately,” Dolly said. “And she just had a little too much to drink. So let’s just forgive that and forget it and move on, ‘cause she felt worse than anybody ever could.”
