@nowthis: Singer Elle King is facing backlash for botching a Dolly Parton tribute at Nashville’s Grand Ole Opry on January 19, by forgetting lyrics, swearing, and slurring her words throughout her performances. King eventually admitted to the audience that she was ‘f*cking hammered.’ Videos have since gone viral of the singer flubbing Dolly Parton’s ‘Marry Me.’ ‘Don't tell Dolly,’ King says mid-performance. ‘Holy sh*t, don't tell Dolly.’ At one point, she makes up lyrics to the song, seemingly having forgotten the actual lyrics. After the song ends she says, ‘You bought tickets to this sh*t? You ain't getting your money back.’ The Grand Ole Opry has since issued an apology on X in response to a tweet from one unhappy customer. ‘We deeply regret and apologize for the language that was used during last night's second Opry performance,’ the music venue wrote. #WatchThis #elleking #dollyparton #grandoleopry

For those that don’t know authentic folk music that’s how it’s sung traditionally. Do you thing, love.

I don’t care that she was hammered. It’s the disrespect to the audience, and Dolly that bothers me. Not to mention the opera!

It has nothing to do with her being a woman. It's supposed to be family friendly
