Post Malone’s Sweet Exchange With Icon Dolly Parton
Dolly Parton is one of many country superstars that are part of Post Malone’s F1- Trillion album that came out last week (8/16).
Dolly posted a video clip of meeting Malone for the first time on her Instagram and it’s really sweet.
The video starts with Posty walking into a studio and seeing Dolly, he comes over and hugs the icon and tells her, “What you need from me in the whole world, I’m here.” Dolly replies: “Oh boy, that’s a big statement.” As they walk, she tells him that she saw a photo of him wearing a suit that was decorated with pictures of her face. She said, “I thought that was the neatest thing ever. I really got a lot of miles for that.”
She then positions his “Dolly” hat on his head just right and giggles. Then she takes some photos and declares, “You’re too tall for me. Get down here where I’m at.” She shakes his hat on his head and they continue to pose.
Parton then tells him that she is working on a Broadway musical of her life story, to which he responds in amazement, ‘What?!”
They hug goodbye as she tells him, “You always say such nice things and you’ve got so many fans. I appreciate you.”
Malone released a lyric video of their song together; in the video, we see Posty going through Dolly Parton memorabilia, including the 1978 Dolly pinball machine.

Country is loving Post Malone these days. Luke Combs talked with CMT and confirmed what everyone suspected: Post Malone is a fun-loving, sweet guy. It actually shows when you watch him perform by how excited and happy he is.
Luke told CMT about his new duet buddy, “He’s so nice. He’s just an unbelievable guy. You can’t help but be happy around him, to be honest. He’s just in such a great mood all the time, at least when I’m around him. I’m sure he has his moments like everybody else. But, he’s just welcoming to anyone and everyone.”
Combs said writing songs with Malone is different. He offered, “Those songwriting sessions can be really, really fun, but I think sometimes here in Nashville, we can be so structured and rigid, like, ‘We’re writing at eleven o’clock, and we’re leaving by this time.’ It becomes this nine-to-five kind of job sometimes.”
Not with Posty. Luke explained that with Malone, they were starting at eight PM “at night,” and then a lot of times, “I’d leave at three or four in the morning.” He said at the end of the night, they had written four or five songs, and “we did that five or six times at least.”
Combs has two duets with Malone on his new country album, F-1 Trillion.
