The country legend is releasing a new album, Rockstar, but won’t be touring to stay with her husband, Carl Dean, 80. The star was in London to promote her record but had previously postponed her trip due to her husband’s health issues.
During a press conference, she was asked if she would consider creating a holographic concert like ABBA Voyage using artificial intelligence. And the answer is clear.
“I think I left a great job behind me. I have to decide how much I want to get involved with this high tech stuff because I don’t want to leave my soul here on this earth. I think with some of those things I’ll be anchored here forever… I’ll be here, they’ll find ways to keep me here,” the Jolene singer replied, according to The Independent.
Dolly Parton also humorously added that everything about her, even her intelligence, is artificial anyway. She also explained that she invited Mick Jagger to sing the Rolling Stones hit Satisfaction on her album, but he turned it down and ended up joining P!nk and Brandi Carlile on the track.
