Listen man I live about 40 minutes from her hometown and she's incredible. We had some massive forest fires destroy the area a few years back and she gave millions to local business and home owners to help rebuild. Dollywood employs so many people and the attraction brings in so much tourism. Sevierville used to be an incredibly poor area and she's done so much to build the local economy. I have friends who used to record at Athens same studio as her and have said she's just a really kind down-to-earth lady on top of everything else.
