Dolly Parton Says Her 'Jolene' Movie Will Be 'About a Whore'

We all love Dolly Parton's song "Jolene," and judging by the numbers, we all love Parton's NBC movie Christmas of Many Colors: Circle of Love. So for her next movie, she's going to be telling the story of "Jolene," the woman of whom she begged "please don't take my man" in 1973.

In an interview with Rolling Stone, Parton did not hold back when describing the title character of the Jolene film. Although Christmas of Many Colors was heartwarming, Jolene will be a bit more scandalous:

"I can't worry about what people think. I'm not pretending to be anything. I'm a sinner, I'm a saint, I'm a seeker, I'm like most people out there. I can't limit myself as a writer to worry about people saying, 'Oh, I thought she was so much better than that and now she's done this movie about a whore.'"
