Country star Dolly Parton’s initial reaction to being named to the hall of fame was to politely decline the offer because she has never considered herself a rock ‘n roll star “in any sense of the word,” she told Billboard in an interview.

But she later changed her mind after a lot of public insistence that she be included on the ballot and when the votes were in, she was named an inductee, telling NPR that she would “accept gracefully.”

Parton later told Billboard in an interview, “People usually [say] ‘Dolly rocks’ or ‘you rock’ or ‘you’re a rock star.’ I thought they just meant that I was cool, and I took that as a great compliment. But now I’m going to have to take it literally!”
She added:
I feel honored that all the people that voted for me did. And I appreciate the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame people for staying there with me. I never meant to cause trouble or stir up any controversy. It was just always my belief — and I think millions of other people out there too — always thought the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame was just set up for the greatest people in the rock ‘n’ roll business, and I just didn’t feel like I really measured up to that and I don’t want to take anything away from the people that have worked so hard. So I just wanted to go pull out before it got started good. I found out later that it’s far more than that, obviously. … I’m very honored and humbled by [the induction], and so I’ll try to live up to it.
The 2022 Rock ‘n Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony airs Saturday, November 19 at 8 p.m. Eastern and Pacific times on HBO.
