Dolly Parton's new Nashville hotel and museum are officially open, and you will want to see the inside.

If you head to our site, we've got all the full colorfulness that is this wonderful hotel and museum.

I know I, for one, will definitely be checking it out the next time I'm there.

Inside Dolly's Life of Many Colors Museum, the story begins on January 19th, 1946, the night Dolly was born, with Dolly herself introducing guests to her journey.

From there, visitors travel through her childhood in the Smokies, her early performing years, her rise through the Opry stages, and the career that made her a music superstar and a Hollywood icon.

The museum also includes her wedding dress, which was missing for over 50 years.

Her and her husband, Carl Dean, were married in 1966, and she never saw the dress again until her niece found it in an army trunk in 2024.

CMA announced that they are having a special celebration to celebrate the life and the icon that was Miss Dolly Parton.

But it has so many incredible artists on the lineup, like Ashley McBryde, Brad Paisley, Carly Pearce, Darius Rucker, Ella Langley, Kelsea Ballerini, Little Big Town.

This next piece of news is for all my Reba fans, which should be every single one of you, 'cause she is a legend.

But she is opening up her personal archive, and fans can take home a piece of country music history.

From dazzling stage gowns to a handwritten sitcom script, the Reba Collection Benefit Auction gives fans a chance to own something the country queen actually wore or used.

Reba fans, consider this your invitation to the ultimate country music treasure hunt.
