Earlier this week on America’s Got Talent, a country trio was the grand finale of the episode. They impressed the judges and Terry Crews (the host) so much that a show rule was broken just to give them a highly-sought after golden ticket to the live shows. Here was the memorable performance…
The song, written by Chapel Hart, is an homage to, and a continuation of, Dolly Parton’s “Jolene.” They cleverly titled it, “You Can Have Him, Jolene.” If fan appreciation wasn’t enough for the group to be over the moon, even Dolly Parton (for President!) herself responded on Twitter…
That’s quite the endorsement right there! I’m sure the ladies of Chapel Hart were so excited to get a mention from Dolly. Well, actually THEY WERE! Here’s their Twitter reaction…
Since the AGT debut, their album (I guess they already had an album out?) reportedly shot to #1 on iTunes. It appears as if good things are in store for these fine women! I’m very interested in how they follow up this early success once the live shows start. Time will tell! In the meantime, comment below with your thoughts about their song and Dolly’s reaction…
Thanks for dropping in!
