Dolly Parton just added 47 new Platinum and Gold certifications
Dolly Parton has started the new year with 47 new Platinum and Gold sales certifications from around the world.
The new awards presented cover certifications from the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, Denmark, Norway, Finland & Sweden.
Parton was awarded a plaque from the RIAA in 2014 for over 100 million units sold worldwide. These new honors show not only continued fan engagement in Parton’s extensive catalog but the potential that streaming offers for the revival of the music catalogs of other artists.
“I’ve often said that my songs are like my children, and I expect them to support me later in my life. Well, it looks like they are doing just that!” said Dolly Parton. “I am so humbled to have been surprised with this incredible collection of certifications from around the world. I owe a big thank you to my fans, old and new, who continue to be there for me year after year. This is a wonderful way to kick off 2022!”
