Dolly Parton Sneaks Up On Randy Travis, And His Reaction Is Priceless
on Nov 26, 2014
In 1988, Randy Travis was one of the new artists on the country music scene. On the other hand, Dolly Parton was already a seasoned vet, especially when it came to attending awards shows such as the CMAs.
During the 1988 CMAs, Parton couldn’t keep herself from teasing Travis. Sitting on his lap, she told him that if she were “a few years younger” that they just might stand a shot at being together. Her comments prompted a smile and a few embarassed laughs from Travis.
The following year, Parton decided to keep the act up when Travis went on stage to present the award for Female Vocalist of the Year. As Travis walked out on stage, Parton followed close behind. The crowd cheered as soon as they saw her, but Travis was completely oblivious until he made his way to the microphone.
Once Travis finally saw Parton, his reaction was priceless. Teasing him once more, she told him she didn’t want to interrupt his presentation, but that she just came out to say “hello.”
The two shared a friendly hug before Parton dashed back stage. Turning back to the crowd, Travis had a big smile on his face as he said, “It’s a tough job.”
