Post Malone paid tribute to late legend Dolly Parton.
The F-1 Trillion star wore a Dolly Parton t-shirt during a recent performance, and raised a can as he made a "massive toast" on stage. In a clip shared on the Extra Posty Instagram account, he said to the audience: "I just wanna raise a f***ing massive toast to the absolutely f***ing legendary Dolly Parton. We love you so very, very much. And we're gonna miss you so very, very f***ing much. Thank you for inspiring me and thank you for inspiring millions and millions, if not billions, of f***ing people. Cheers, ladies and gentlemen."
Post Malone teamed up with Parton on "Have The Heart," a duet that appeared on his country debut album, F-1 Trillion, in 2024. See the video of his tribute to Parton here (warning: language).
Parton died on August 25 after "bravely facing a brief battle with cancer," her representatives confirmed. She was 80. Parton has since been laid to rest beside husband Carl Dean in a private service for immediate family. Dean died in March 2025. He was 82. An official statement issued the day of Parton's passing stated that "Dolly is preceded in death by her beloved husband of 59 years Carl Thomas Dean (1942 - 2025), her mother Avie Lee Caroline Owens (1923 - 2003), and father, Robert Lee Parton, Sr. (1921 - 2000). …At Dolly's request, a small, private service will be held for immediate family. Dolly's fans and friends from around the world are encouraged to pay tribute to Dolly on social media by tagging @DollyParton or by leaving a message at www.dollyparton.com. In lieu of flowers the family asks for donations to be made to Dolly Parton's Imagination Library."
