Dolly Parton out here making Garth Brooks blush…
The country icons co-hosted the ACM Awards last night, and of course, Dolly brought the jokes and did her best to embarrass Garth with a sex joke or two.
Garth opened the show by listing out some of the greatest country artists the genre has ever known, and of course, it eventually led him to call Dolly to the stage.
She first walked out wheeling around a goat in a wagon saying “I’ve got your GOAT right here,” after Garth introduced her by calling her the GOAT (greatest of all time).
She also told the crowd that it was Garth’s first time hosting an awards show, and that “you never forget your first time…” and complimented Garth by saying:
“He changed the game of country music forever. In a flash, Garth became one of the biggest stars of all time.”
Dolly added that she’d seen Garth telling people she was his “hall pass,” and he told her that she was his wife, Trisha Yearwood’s, as well.
And she hilariously quipped that she knew why he was really going on and on about who the “GOAT” of country music was…
“Hey! I just had a thought, I think I know why you’re doing that GOAT thing! I think that stands for ‘Garth organized a threesome! I think you did.”
To which he responded:
“I thought I couldn’t love you anymore.”
Well played, Garth… well played.
Dolly also closed out the show with the first performance of the lead single from her forthcoming rock and roll album Rockstar with a song called “World On Fire”:
