Dolly Parton backtracks, will ‘gratefully accept’ Rock Hall nomination

After previously refusing a nomination from the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, Dolly Parton is now saying she will happily welcome a nod.

In a new interview with NPR’s "Morning Edition," the banana cake entrepreneur declared that she will receive the honor if she’s voted in. "I’ll accept gracefully," she said. "I’ll say ‘thanks’ and accept that."

The "Jolene" songstress had revealed on March 14 that she would be pulling out of the nominations because she felt that she hadn’t "earned that right," but seemed to hope that the organization would always love her.
