She&#8217;s known for the kind of like, I guess, the faux, the fake, the hair, the makeup&#8230; the show of it. But there&#8217;s a part of her that&#8217;s just what I think what everyone gravitates towards is how real she is, and how authentic she is.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;There was a time in my life, I mean, we hit on it with <em>Hannah [Montana]<\/em>, so much of my life was about persona. And I think a way that I could look at that as you can have a persona and still be who you are, is because I had <strong>Dolly<\/strong>,&#8221; she continued. &#8220;Sometimes I call what I do drag because the way that I present myself is just someone that is so different from the persona that feeds the tortoise every morning. But again, that person&#8217;s inside of me, I just kind of have her off.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;One of the things we talked about was in my performances, I always cry. I can&#8217;t help it. &#8216;End of the World.&#8217; I start crying and she watched me on <em>Letterman<\/em> and was like, &#8216;What are you crying about?&#8217; Like, &#8216;That song.&#8217; I was like, &#8216;That song is about the world ending and me never seeing my mom again,&#8217;&#8221; <strong>Miley<\/strong> said. &#8220;She was like, &#8216;Music is escapism. Like, let them cry. You need to like get through it.&#8217; And I was like, &#8216;I know, but this is who I am.&#8217; And she loved me for it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"iframe-container\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Zane<\/strong> said, &#8220;She was also, in credit to her, probably the only person in the world who could sing &#8216;I Will Always Love You&#8217; and not weep.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Miley<\/strong> replied, &#8220;I can&#8217;t. I cried singing &#8216;I Will Always Love You&#8217; with her. But, I think she knew at that time that the reason I was crying is the reason that I cry now, is &#8217;cause I know that so many, not just <strong>Dolly<\/strong>, which is a unique, you know, that&#8217;s family, but so many of my really stabilizing peers that I have in my life. You know, they&#8217;re generations before me, and they&#8217;ve laid down brick by brick the road that I travel now. They aren\u2019t always going to be here for me to call them and say, \u2018What do I do now?,\u2019 which I always did with <strong>Dolly<\/strong>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;And she was always right. It&#8217;s like how your mom&#8217;s always right and when you&#8217;re a kid, you&#8217;re like, &#8216;What does she know?&#8217; And then as you get older you&#8217;re like, &#8216;Everything. How? Where did this come from? You&#8217;re just a normal person. Why do you know everything?&#8217; <strong>Dolly<\/strong> was just always right about stuff.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Following <strong>Dolly<\/strong>&#8216;s passing, <strong>Miley<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.justjared.com\/2026\/08\/26\/miley-cyrus-shares-emotional-tribute-to-godmother-dolly-parton-after-her-passing\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.justjared.com\/2026\/08\/26\/miley-cyrus-shares-emotional-tribute-to-godmother-dolly-parton-after-her-passing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">shared an emotional tribute<\/a> to her godmother. <\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.justjared.com\/2026\/09\/17\/miley-cyrus-reveals-when-she-last-spoke-to-dolly-parton-it-was-about-her-new-album-bass-persuades\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Miley Cyrus Reveals When She Last Spoke to Dolly Parton &amp; It Was About Her New Album \u2018Bass Persuades\u2019<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.justjared.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Just Jared &#8211; Celebrity News, Entertainment News &amp; Photos<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.justjared.com\/2026\/09\/17\/miley-cyrus-reveals-when-she-last-spoke-to-dolly-parton-it-was-about-her-new-album-bass-persuades\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Getty Miley Cyrus is opening up about her last conversation with the late Dolly Parton.
