Dolly Parton Saves Jessica Simpsons Singing Career

September 3, 2008

Jessica Simpson has revealed that if it weren’t for country legend Dolly Parton she would have quit singing.

After her disastrous appearance at the Kennedy Center Honors tribute where she forgot the words to Parton’s hit ‘9 To 5’, Simpson claims she lost a lot of confidence.

“You know, what happened at Kennedy Center, I really thought I was done singing”, she tells E! Entertainment.

“I was just at a place where I’d lost a lot of confidence and I didn’t even know who I was.”

“But Dolly totally took me under her wing and helped me up and over the cares of the world.”

Jessica Simpson’s upcoming country album, ‘Do You Know’, will be released on September 9 via Epic Records.
