Dolly’s real fans will know, but it is still worth repeating. Johnny Cash greatly influenced Dolly Parton. She had a crush on him and he advised her to continue pursuing a career in music. This was how she described her time with him: “I was sitting in the audience and that’s when I first knew about sex appeal…he had this tick when he moved his shoulder…and it was still sexy. It still got to me.”

Even when she was a small girl, Dolly Parton already knew that she was going to be a big star. At 13 years old, she sang the song called, “Puppy Love.” But the turning point was when she met Johnny Cash backstage of the Grand Ole Opry after she performed.
