Dolly Parton Breaks 3 Guinness world records

75-year-old singer, Dolly Parton expressed her excitement after being presented with three new certificates in Nashville, Tennessee, by the Guinness World Records. 

Parton now holds two new record titles for the most decades (7) and most No.1 hits (25) on the Billboard US Hot Country Songs chart, both for a female artist.

The singer also broke her record for the most hits on the chart in general, with 109 songs to make it onto Billboard’s list.

Speaking at the presentation ceremony, Parton said; 

“This is the kind of stuff that really makes you very humble and very grateful for everything that’s happened. I had no idea that I would be in Guinness World Records this many times! I am flattered and honored.

 “I’ve had a lot of people help me get here. Thanks to all of you and all of them for helping me have all of this.

“I’ve loved being able to make a living in the business that I love so much. I’ve been so fortunate to see my dreams come true, and I just hope to continue for as long as I can. You’re going to have to knock me down to stop me!”
