Tinsel Town Talk – Wed 01/22/2025
If you didn’t know, Dolly Parton turned 79 years old on Sunday. To celebrate, here are some of her most memorable quotes, or “Dolly-isms”, she’s said over the years:
1. “You’ll never do a whole lot, unless you’re brave enough to try.”
2. “You’d be surprised how much it costs to look this cheap.”
3. “Smile! It increases your face value.”
4. “I am not offended by dumb blonde jokes because I know that I’m not dumb. I also know that I am not blonde.”
5. “Find out who you are, and do it on purpose”
6. “If I can hold God’s attention, I can hold the world’s.”
7. “If you see somebody without a smile, give ’em yours.”
8. “If you talk bad about country music, it’s like saying bad things about my momma. Them’s fighting words.”
9. “The magic is inside you . . . There ain’t no crystal ball.”
10. “My weaknesses have always been food and men . . . in that order.”

The Golden Raspberry Award nominees were announced yesterday. You know, the annual awards that honor the WORST of the year. “Borderlands”, “Joker: Folie à Deux”, “Madame Web”, “Megalopolis”, and “Reagan” lead with six each. Here’s the full list of nominees. The Oscar nominees will be announced tomorrow morning.
JC Chasez, Lance Bass, and Chris Kirkpatrick reunited for a Justin Timberlake show. Joey Fatone couldn’t be there, because he’s on Broadway.
“Sonic the Hedgehog 4” is already planned for the spring of 2027.
Something Megan Moroney posted has fans thinking she might open for Kenny Chesney at the Sphere in Vegas later this year . . . but don’t count on it. He’s only doing 12 shows, and she’s got nine shows of her own over that same stretch in May and June. Pre-sale tickets dropped yesterday, and Kenny posted about it. He’ll be the first country artist to headline the Sphere, with 12 shows between May 22nd and June 14th. Someone noticed Megan commented on the post but didn’t write anything. She just posted the eyes emoji . . . two eyes looking sideways . . . and fans thought it seemed pretty cryptic.
Zooey Deschanel’s childhood home burned down. The pictures are heartbreaking.
Bailey Zimmerman performed at Luke Bryan’s “Crash My Playa” event last week . . . but there’s a decent chance he DOESN’T REMEMBER IT. Because he was HAMMERED or messed up on something. Yesterday, Bailey posted an apology video on Instagram. He said he was “embarrassed” . . . and admitted he was “awful” because he was “too drunk to play.” He apologized to fans, and said it won’t happen again.
Tippi Hedren from the Hitchcock classics “The Birds” and “Marnie” turned 95 years old on Sunday, and judging by the video her daughter Melanie Griffith posted, she seems to be in fantastic shape.
Jason Aldean announced a new tour called the Full Throttle Tour with over 30 shows, featuring special guests Nate Smith, RaeLynn, and Dee Jay Silver. It will kick off May 23rd in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio . . . and will wrap up October 4th in West Palm Beach, Florida. (You can find out more info, here.)
