Beyoncé has already shaken up the country music world by dropping a couple of country-style songs, with one, "Texas Hold 'Me," turning out to be a huge hit. But Dolly Parton believes the superstar has another ace up her sleeve. In an interview Friday to promote the seasonal opening of Dollywood, the country legend was asked point-blank if rumors that Beyoncé recorded her classic "Jolene," to which Dolly said: “Well, I think she has! I think she's recorded 'Jolene' and I think it's probably gonna be on her country album, which I'm very excited about that." Dolly was a big supporter from the word go of the r&b singer's country turn, saying on Instagram, "I’m a big fan of Beyoncé and very excited that she’s done a country album. Socongratulations on your Billboard Hot Country number one single," adding that she "can’t wait to hear the full album!"That album is the forthcoming "Act II," which drops everywhere March 29.
