Miley Cyrus tearfully pays tribute to her late godmother Dolly Parton and reveals she inspired her to perform at the Hollywood Bowl: “If she had it her way, and she was playing a show, I’d be standing right beside her in a matching costume. And so when I was coming to the show at the Bowl to see her, I said, you know, ‘I would love a night where I can just experience you. I can just enjoy you like the rest of the world has gotten to.’ Sitting here with you all right now, feeling her all around me, knowing that she’s right here beside me, every day, more than she could be when she was here; I feel her more now than ever. Knowing that I get to share this story with you all, it makes that night very worth it. This memory is gold to me. Me and Dolly, we are eternal. Nothing in this life could ever tear us apart, and I’m gonna see her again. And I can’t f**king wait because I miss her. Some of the greatest music that we have today was written, produced, performed by my Aunt Dolly, and this is one of those songs.”
