foxnews.comDolly Parton rocked covers of two classic Queen power anthems in a new music video to promote coverage of the upcoming 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris.
The 77-year-old country icon's video features "We Are The Champions/We Will Rock You," which will be included on Parton's forthcoming album, "Rockstar." As a "huge fan of the Olympics and Team USA," Parton was inspired to create an Olympic-themed video for the song that "celebrates the athletes and gets people excited about next year’s Games in Paris," a press release said. "I love the Olympics!
I do my best to plan my schedule to watch as much of it as I possibly can," the "Jolene" hitmaker said. "I tape it just in case I miss the live action on a certain day and watch it back as soon as possible. "I laugh, I cry, I scream.There are no losers in the Olympics as they have all spent a lifetime preparing.
But I celebrate with the ones that go away with the gold, silver and bronze medals."
