Dolly Parton Admits That She Will Play Christmas Music “For 12 Hours” A Day During The Holidays

In a new interview with People, Dolly Parton shared her love of Christmas music and what she does to keep the holidays festive at her place. Not surprisingly for the 78-year-old country legend, her holiday celebrations are centered around music. “Well, you know I love all the Christmas songs,” Parton shared. “I love the fast ones, I love the slow ones. I love ‘Silent Night’ and ‘O Little Town of Bethlehem,’ but then I love ‘Rudolph’ and all of those fun things. I just love all of that.” Modern technology helps Parton keep things musical around her home during the Christmas season. “We all have either an Alexa or Siri or one of those kinds of things,” Parton says. “I just always holler out, ‘Alexa, play holiday music for 12 hours in my house,’ or something like that, and I just like all of it.” Parton’s just published Billy the Kid Comes Home for Christmas, a sequel to her 2023 book, Billy the Kid Makes It Big.
