Amidst a tumbling stock market, an astounding reversal of women’s rights, an ongoing war in Ukraine, and climate change spiraling out of control, there is still some low-stakes news, and it’s brewing on Dolly Parton’s Instagram. There are some headlines that matter in the grand scheme of things and others that almost certainly don’t. We’d put Dolly Parton’s TikTok musical in the first category.
Parton shared the news about her leading role in "Mexican Pizza: The Musical" on Monday: "I'm making #MexicanPizzaTheMusical with @TacoBell," she wrote on Instagram, sharing a photo of the musical’s screenplay. The musical will be released at 8 p.m. ET on May 26. Of all the celebrity sponcon we sift through, this is one of the more delightful posts — almost as good as the time Martha Stewart did a Mercedes Benz Instagram ad where she called the insurrectionists “trash” in the caption.
