Elle King Dolly Parton Tribute

Neither Parton nor King have responded to any requests to comment on the incident. But King has been known to put on edgier personas while performing. In an interview with the San Diego Tribune, the singer shared that she has performed both drunk and sober “and they are different.”

“They don’t call it ‘liquid courage’ for nothing. I mean, how many jobs do you show up for and there are bottles of liquor on the table for you [in your dressing room]? There are not a lot,” she continued.

However, she shared that “I really like to drink and sing. I don’t want to get as drunk as I used to.” But drinking “makes me less nervous about hitting the notes when I sing. If I don’t make them, it won’t sting as much.” Last year, she said that her new tour life would be different “because I put being a mother way, way, way above having a good time.”
