In a recent interview, Dolly Parton discussed her choice to turn down several offers to judge singing competition shows like American Idol and The Voice. At 79, the country music icon emphasized the emotional challenges of such roles, stating that even less talented contestants genuinely believe in their abilities. Parton expressed her reluctance to potentially hurt their feelings, reflecting her compassionate nature and deep understanding of the artists' emotional investment in music and performance.
"It's too hard for me. That's why I don't accept it, because I know how sincere everybody is. Even if they're not that good, they believe they are. And I just can't hurt people."
