"This should not overshadow what was truly a great gig
and accomplished performance. Dolly adored every single moment."
Parton, who made her festival debut on the Pyramid Stage on
Sunday night was forced to defend herself over claims she failed to sing live
during the set.
A spokesperson for Dolly told the Sunday Mirror: "She
sings live. Some people don't know an amazing singer when they hear one."
The hitmaker's vocals became the subject of debate following
her performance of her hits, including "Islands in the Stream,"
"Baby I'm Burning" and "Jolene," prompting actor Stephen
Fry to speak out in her defence.
the 56-year-old wrote on Twitter: "I think I know quite
a lot about how TV is made. Why are people saying @DollyParton is miming? She's
fooling me."
ENERGETIC SET
He added: "Believe me, that is not miming. If it
appears not always to lip-sync that's an HD live processor issue. You see it
with news reporters."
Meanwhile, Dolly — who performed her energetic set in front
of over 200,000 adoring fans clad in a white suit covered in rhinestones — had
received a surprise award prior to her set at the iconic Worthy Farm.
She was presented with a congratulatory plaque by
Glastonbury organizer Michael Eavis and her manager Danny Nozell at the
Somerset event in honour of selling 100 million albums worldwide.
She said after receiving her award: "I've been so busy
making records for the past several decades, I didn't realize I had racked up
so many sales. What a great honour to know that I have so many fans that have
supported me through the years.
"Thanks to the RIAA [Recording Industry Association of
America] for the acknowledgment and the plaque. I feel very honoured and
proud."
