Dolly Parton, who's been honored with four previous People's Choice Awards, may be adding a fifth to her mantle. The legendary singer is nominated for a People's Choice Award in the Favorite Female Country Artist category.
"I am so excited to be nominated for a People's Choice award. It is always a good feeling to be recognized for whatever you do," declares Parton. "This year has been an amazing year! I released a new album 'Blue Smoke,' traveled to Australia, Europe, and across America and even performed for 170,000 people at one show - woo that makes me tired just saying it."
The fan-voted People's Choice Awards will air live from the Nokia Theater in Los Angeles on Jan. 7, 2015, at 9 p.m. EST on CBS.
Parton has had 25 songs reach No. 1 on the Billboard Country charts, a record for a female artist. Her all-inclusive sales of singles, albums, hits collections, paid digital downloads and compilation usage is at 100 million records.
The singer-songwriter-actress made her mark in Hollywood in the hit films "Nine to Five," "Steel Magnolias," "The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas," "Rhinestone," "Straight Talk" and "Joyful Noise." She received a pair of Academy Award nominations-one for penning the title tune to "Nine to Five" and the other for the song "Travelin' Thru" from the film "Transamerica."
