Her musical prowess is what brings inspiration to eager contestants on “The Voice.”
Life without Reba McEntire seems near impossible.
“I remember it like it was yesterday,” McEntire toldBillboard.
Once her agent sorted it out and got her inside, McEntire was in for another rude awakening.
Originally supposed to sing two songs, McEntire was demoted to one because Parton had shown up.
“I said, ‘Shoot, she can take both of them.
Can I meet her?'”
“They said, ‘No, we just need one of them.'”
She kinda floated by," she toldTaste of Country.
“She was just like an angel.”
According to McEntire, that wasn’t the case at all.
In fact,the two have had a decades-long friendship.
“Not competition with Dolly,” she told Taste of Country.
I am not a competitor with Dolly.
“She’s everything, McEntire said.
“I’ve watched.
I have listened.”
“Dolly does not text,” the singer said.
According to McEntire, she doesn’t even have the “Jolene” singer’s phone number or email.
How can she contact Parton?
“Fax,” said McEntire.
