In conversation with NME last year , Parton explained why she’s always done things her own way.

“I just thought well, who’s gonna look after me if I don’t?” Parton explained.

“When you’re not watching, everybody else will wind up making more money than you on the things that you’re producing and creating… [Back then] I wasn’t as bold and aggressive as I am now, but I still had the same frame of mind.”

Christmas on the Square will be released worldwide on November 22.
