As our fellow kids say, \u201cQueen!\u201d<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nParton crushed all ticket sales expectations for her Colosseum residency, helped by the fact her shows overlapped with National Finals Rodeo, Dec. 4-13, 2025.<\/p>\n
Parton\u2019s original dates were Dec. 4, 6-7, 10, 12-13, 2025.<\/p>\n
Here\u2019s what Parton shared: \u201cAs many of you know, I have been dealing with some health challenges, and my doctors tell me that I must have a few procedures. As I joked with them, it must be time for my 100,000-mile check-up, although it\u2019s not the usual trip to see my plastic surgeon!\u201d<\/p>\n
Dolly Parton\u2019s self-deprecating humor has been a hallmark of her career.<\/p>\n
Parton deftly sidestepped specifics of her health problems, but has had significant issues her entire life.<\/p>\n
Parton has faced serious health challenges over the years, some of which she\u2019s been open about, others she\u2019s largely kept private. She struggled with endometriosis. She\u2019s also had episodes of Bell\u2019s palsy. She\u2019s publicly acknowledged kidney stones.<\/p>\n
Basically, time is an asshole.<\/p>\n
If Parton were to return to Caesars, it would be in Sept. 2026. Specifically, Sept. 17, 19-20, 23, 25-26, 2026.<\/p>\n
We love optimism. Las Vegas was built on optimism. However, we also love reality. Sometimes, reality bites.<\/p>\n
Some irresponsible journalists continue to say Celine Dion is looking forward to another residency in Las Vegas. That\u2019s simply not happening. She has a degenerative disease.<\/p>\n
Dolly Parton sounds like she\u2019s up for taking a break and getting back on that horse again. We\u2019d love to see it happen. The over\/under is nope.<\/p>\n
Parton said, \u201cDon\u2019t worry about me quittin\u2019 the business because God hasn\u2019t said anything about stopping yet. But I believe he is telling me to slow down right now so I can be ready for more big adventures with all of you.\u201d<\/p>\n
At this juncture, we would like to change our prediction about whether Dolly Parton will be back for a Las Vegas residency because we were not aware God is Dolly Parton\u2019s business manager!<\/p>\n
If God is taking time out of his busy schedule to advise Dolly Parton about retirement, can\u2019t he swing fixing a couple of lady problems?<\/p>\n
Back to reality.<\/p>\n
Translation of Parton\u2019s statement: These bills aren\u2019t going to pay themselves.<\/p>\n
See also Frankie Valli and Paul McCartney and David Lee Roth and Wayne Newton, all due respect.<\/p>\n
Caesars has yet to announce who will fill Dolly Parton\u2019s dates at the Colosseum, but her cancellation is a huge blow, financially. Parton would\u2019ve drawn the perfect resort and casino customer. They not only spend money on tickets and merch, but also flood restaurants and bars and book lots of rooms.<\/p>\n
We love us some Dolly Parton and wish her all the best for her medical procedures and recovery.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
