Fox News
It appears the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Foundation is carrying on with Dolly Parton's nomination to be inducted despite the icon declaring she was removing herself from the ballot because she “hasn't earned the right.”
"All of us in the music community have seen Dolly Parton’s thoughtful note expressing her feeling that she has not earned the right to be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame," the statement began. "In addition to her incredible talent as an artist, her humility is another reason Dolly is a beloved icon by millions of fans around the world."
"From its inception, Rock & Roll has had deep roots in Rhythm & Blues and Country music," it continued. "It is not defined by any one genre, rather a sound that moves youth culture. Dolly Parton’s music impacted a generation of young fans and influenced countless artists that followed. Her nomination to be considered for induction into to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame followed the same process as all other artists who have been considered."
