Nobody knows Dolly Parton like Miley Cyrus; therefore, she is willing to portray her legendary godmother in a biopic. The 30-year-old singer and actress told E! News that she would absolutely do it, even though that is a conversation she has never had with Parton.
“I’m sucked; I’m tucked and plucked, just like she taught me,” Cyrus assured, adding, “Me and Dolly have never really spoken, honestly, about me playing Dolly because I feel like I’m already doing it.”

“Well, we do that every day. Don’t we, Miley?” the country music icon added.
Parton told SiriusXM host Jenny Hutt that she became Cyrus’ godmother because of her friendship with her dad Billy Ray Cyrus. “Well, because I worked with Billy Ray for all those years when he had ‘Achy Breaky Heart,’” Parton explains, per Insider.
Cyrus and Parton have collaborated multiple times before. Parton even made appearances on Miley’s show Hannah Montana. They’re known for their “Jolene” debut, which they’ve performed a few times, including at the 2019 Grammy Awards.
