Dolly Parton , country icon and global superstar, has died at the age of 80 . Tributes for the 11-time Grammy Award winner, responsible for hits like "9 to 5" and "Jolene," poured out across social media following the news. Fans took to X to share heartfelt messages about the late singer, with one post reading, "Dolly Parton was one of a kind, RIP to a legend."
Celebrities also shared their grief over Parton's death, including Reba McEntire, who thanked Dolly "for all of the wonderful things you did for us here on Earth." Julia Roberts added, "Dolly was a magical and joyous human. I hold knowing her as a treasure in my life. The sun has dimmed today."
That outpouring of sadness has also inspired fans to find more personal ways to remember Parton . Across online marketplaces, admirers are creating custom Dolly Parton merchandise and keepsakes, from crocheted dolls and coffee mugs to custom books and other handmade items celebrating the singer's life and career.
