Dolly Parton says Ukraine is 'not political' but a 'humanitarian issue' after dedicating ACM awards
Fox News
Dolly Parton dedicated the ACM awards to Ukraine as millions flee Putin's invasion. Parton joined 'Fox & Friends' alongside author James Patterson to discuss the dedication and the duo's new book, 'Run, Rose, Run.'
"That's not political," Parton told co-host Steve Doocy of the dedication. "That's a humanitarian issue there, and I just knew we were all going to have a big time that night while all those poor people in Ukraine were suffering and misplaced and going through all kinds of hell.""So I felt it only right for me to say something about that," she continued. The pair also weighed in on the book they co-authored together, which was written about "dreams" in conjunction with a series of songs Parton created.
"We were working on the story, and all of a sudden I thought, well, this is about Nashville," Parton said. "I write songs. I understand this, so I started writing songs then, but that would be a greater way for me to contribute to the story because he knows how to write a book, for sure," Parton said of Patterson.
