As I joked with them, it must be time for my 100,000-mile check-up, although it&#8217;s not the usual trip to see my plastic surgeon! In all seriousness, given this, I am not going to be able to rehearse and put together the show that I want you to see, and the show that you deserve to see.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">&#8220;You pay good money to see me perform, and I want to be at my best for you,&#8221; the statement continued.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">Parton shared that while she can continue working on projects from her Nashville home, she needs &#8220;a little time to get show ready, as they say.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">In the statement, Parton also reassured fans she has no plans to retire.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">&#8220;And don&#8217;t worry about me quittin&#8217; the business because God hasn&#8217;t said anything about stopping yet,&#8221; the statement added. &#8220;But, I believe He is telling me to slow down right now so I can be ready for more big adventures with all of you. I love you and thank you for understanding.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"hsDdd NDJZt sJeUN IJwXl vBqtr KrDt itslR zFTjo hakZw HlUVI \" data-testid=\"prism-image\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/DollyParton-gty-sn-250928_1759102843253_hpMain.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Dolly Parton attends the opening of Country Music Hall of Fame\u00c2\u00ae and Museum&#8217;s new exhibit &#8216;Dolly Parton: Journey of a Seeker&#8217; on May 19, 2025 in Nashville, Tennessee.<\/p>\n<p>Jason Kempin\/Getty Images<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">The postponement delays what would have been Parton&#8217;s first extended Las Vegas run in 32 years.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">Announced in June, the residency titled, &#8220;<a class=\"zZygg UbGlr iFzkS qdXbA WCDhQ DbOXS tqUtK GpWVU iJYzE \" data-testid=\"prism-linkbase\" href=\"https:\/\/www.goodmorningamerica.com\/culture\/story\/dolly-parton-returns-las-vegas-half-dozen-shows-123130618\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Dolly: Live in Las Vegas<\/a>,&#8221; was scheduled to coincide with the National Finals Rodeo, with six concerts set for Dec. 4-13.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC eTIW sUzSN \">According to a press release, the &#8220;hit-driven concert event&#8221; was planned to feature seven decades of classics and fan favorites, including &#8220;9 to 5,&#8221; &#8220;Jolene,&#8221; &#8220;I Will Always Love You,&#8221; and &#8220;Coat of Many Colors.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Dolly Parton announced Sunday that she is postponing her upcoming Las Vegas residency due to health concerns.
