Move aside, everyone — Dolly Parton has entered the chat. Parton joined TikTok this week, proving once more that the legendary multi-hyphenate is not above having some good, old-fashioned fun. Since joining on Sunday, Parton has posted 11 videos, including a user-generated compilation set to Parton’s iconic “9 to 5,” clips from past performances and interviews, and baking bloopers.
One of my personal favorites? Parton’s take on potatoes (a clip from a past interview with WIRED), which simultaneously pays homage to the spud and her 1971 song, “She Never Met a Man (She Didn’t Like).” “Every diet I’ve ever fell off of has been because of a potato. Either French fries, or mashed potatoes, or baked potatoes,” Parton says in the video, as several green-screen potatoes begin to fill up the screen, until only the star’s face is visible and completely framed by the vegetable. “Potato, potato, potato — I never met a spud I didn’t like.”
