Dolly Parton has debunked keto and gummy ads circulating on Facebook that appear to be endorsed by her.
In a social media post from reps of the Islands in the Stream singer, more commonly known as Team Dolly, they revealed that the 77-year-old is not fronting campaigns for any keto or CBD gummy product.
The post stated: ‘Dolly Parton is not affiliated with, has not endorsed and is not associated with any keto or CBD gummy product.
‘She’s more the cake, cookie, and cornbread type.’
Recently there have been several ads posted to Facebook by scammers that are aimed to suggest that Dolly has endorsed various CBD gummies as a treatment for dementia.
Her representatives have clarified that the 9 to 5 singer has done no such thing.
The fact-checking website Snopes shared an article in December and tracked down the source of the ads as scammers who were using the country music star’s name.
They also found photos that resembled Fox News ads to trick people into clicking.
In the article, the company wrote: ‘A simple search of Facebook showed that scammers were using Parton’s image and likeness without authorization.’
Team Dolly used the situation to their advantage, sharing that she’s a cake, cookie, and cornbread lover on purpose.
The beauty has partnered with Duncan Hines baked goods on a limited-edition Dolly Parton Baking Collection.
It features Dolly Parton’s Caramel Turtle Brownie Mix, Dolly Parton’s Fabulously Fudgy Brownie Mix, and Dolly Parton’s Sweet Cornbread & Muffin Mix, among other goodies.
The Jolene songstress has also shared the news that she sang a cover of The Beatles’ song Let It Be with Paul McCartney for her next album Rock Star.
During an appearance on Rachael Ray, the superstar broke the exciting news about her newest duet.
She said: ‘I’ve got a lot of wonderful iconic songs that people love and wonderful iconic singers joining me on them.’
Dolly also confirmed she sang with Elton John on one of his songs for her 49th studio album – which will definitely feature Stevie Nicks, Annie Lennox, Joan Jett, Steve Perry, Steven Tyler, and John Fogerty.
The Joyful Noise actress also let slip that her famous goddaughter Miley Cyrus will make an appearance on the new album. ‘We’re definitely going to have her on.’
Her album will also feature Led Zeppelin’s 1971 song Stairway to Heaven, and she already debuted her new track Rockin’ at the 37th Annual Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony in LA on November 5.
The 10-time Grammy winner also shared with Rachael: ‘I wrote a little special song for that to, kind of, sum up my feelings about how I wasn’t sure I was a rock star, but you know me well enough to know I’m not going to let an opportunity go by.’
She continued: ‘I thought if I’m ever going to do a rock & roll album which I often dreamed someday I might, that the time is now.
‘So, I reached out to a lot of the friends who were on the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame with me when we were there those few days rehearsing.’
