Dolly Parton has declared that Miley Cyrus’ hit song, “Used to Be Young,” should have been hers. More so, she is giving a legitimate explanation as to why it was meant for her and not her goddaughter. So, what is her reasoning, and did Miley have anything to say about it? Keep reading for more details.
Dolly Parton Declared Used To Be Young Should Be Hers
It is no secret that Dolly Parton has a multitude of smash hit songs. She has a decades-long career that includes acting in such hit films as 9 to 5 and Steel Magnolias. Now, she has ventured out into the cookbook world to accompany her line of baking products. Dolly also has a new beauty line, things for pups including wigs, and holiday decor so it feels like she is home for Christmas. There is literally nothing she cannot do but there was one thing she was not able to do.
Her goddaughter, Miley Cyrus had a hit song with “Used to Be Young” but Dolly has a bone to pick about it. She feels that she should have been the one to sing the song and with a very good reason. According to Variety, Dolly believes Miley was too young for the song to begin with. The lyrics had Miley reflecting back on her youth but according to the thirty-two-year-old, Dolly took exception to that and told her this:
[Dolly] goes, ‘I don’t know if I like that new “Used to Be Young” song because it’s not fair that you’re singing about not being young when you’re young and beautiful. And here I am—I’m like 80—and I’m like, That should have been my song!’
Upon listening to the song again, Miley started to have second thoughts about releasing the song. She does not know if it was the best idea or if everyone got the meaning behind it. Yet, it is too late now and she is currently working on new music, hopefully, Dolly will approve.
In The Middle
Dolly Parton has been an integral part of the Cyrus family. She allegedly had been brought into the Miley and Billy Ray Cyrus drama as the two had been estranged. Of course, Dolly is supposedly a neutral party and does not want to have to choose sides. She has known Billy Ray for decades, thus becoming Miley’s godmother. More so, she wants to be there for everyone. As of now, it does look like Billy Ray and Miley may have a chance at a reconciliation but time will tell on that. Still, Dolly may have a bigger problem with the fact she did not get first dibs at “Used to Be Young” than anything else.
