The country music icon appeared at the grand opening of Dolly’s Tennessean Travel Stop in Cornersville, Tennessee, where she greeted supporters and celebrated a project inspired by her decades of life on the road.Dolly Parton’s latest business venture officially opened its doors this week, but it wasn’t just the new destination that captured attention. As footage from the celebration spread online, viewers became fixated on a brief moment that quickly sparked debate.According to a report, the new travel stop officially opened on June 24 as a joint venture between Parton, her longtime manager Danny Nozell, and businessman Gregory H. Sachs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Located about 60 miles south of Nashville off Interstate 65 at Exit 22, the renovated destination was designed to make every stop along the highway “feel a little more like home.”The property offers far more than fuel. Visitors can enjoy DLY BBQ, the Cup of Ambition coffee and ice cream shop inspired by Dolly’s hit song “9 to 5,” exclusive merchandise, trucker amenities, a dog park, performance spaces for local musicians, and numerous photo opportunities celebrating the singer’s career.Greg Sachs explained that he wanted to transform the travel stop into a destination and believed there was only one person who truly represented kindness and hospitality.”Who is better in the world to personify kindness and hospitality than Dolly Parton? I am extremely proud and blessed to call her my friend and my partner,” he said.The report also noted that Dolly has long said that her years touring the country have given her firsthand experience of what travelers want during road trips, making the partnership a natural fit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
