Dolly Parton Rocked Glastonbury's Socks Off

If you needed any proof that Dolly Parton will continue to have that "it" factor until the day she dies (and long after), let the facts speak for themselves: The 68-year-old Dolly Parton played a set at Glastonbury Sunday and it drew a huger audience than the shows for Arcade Fire and Metallica, the headliners for Friday and Saturday.

Parton's performance rocked the UK music festival, to the point that The Guardian's Neil McCormick called her "the undisputed queen of Glastonbury." If you watch her performance (the full set is below, because the Internet is mighty and kind) you'll see that that was indeed the case. She bantered, she charmed, and she busted out pretty much every classic Dolly tune you could have asked of her.
