Dolly Parton proposes THREESOME with Garth Brooks and wife Trisha Yearwood at ... trends now
Country music legends Dolly Parton and Garth Brooks teamed up to play co-hosts for the 58th Academy Of Country Music Awards at the Ford Center at The Star in Frisco, Texas, on Thursday.
Parton turned up the heat on stage and took the show in a risqué direction by propositioning her colleague and his wife Tisha Yearwood.
During the opening bit Parton joked that she had heard in interviews that she was the couple's hall pass' selection.
'I just had a thought. I know why you're doing that G.O.A.T. thing!" Parton declared. 'I think it stands for Garth Organized A Threesome!'
Seemingly caught by surprise by the threesome reference, the Shameless singer shot back with complete class, 'And I thought I couldn't love you anymore!'

Despite getting a little frisky with the married Brooks, Parton has been married since 1966 to Carl Thomas Dean, though he has left the spotlight all for her.
The dynamic duo kicked off with an opening number during the monologue that came complete with the two sharing compliments with each other, along with a raunchy surprise from the Jolene star.
After welcoming the audience, Brooks called Parton the G.O.A.T. (Greatest Of All Time), while she more than reciprocated by crowning him with the title of 'King of Country Music.'
'He changed the name of country music forever. In a flash, he became one of the biggest stars of all time,' Dolly said, while Garth replied by referencing one of her most famous songs, saying the 'world […] will always love you.'
Looking to rebound off the animal reference, Parton came out pulling a cart with an actual goat in it: 'Did I hear you say you were looking for a G.O.A.T.?' Parton said, adding, 'I've got your G.O.A.T. right here!'
Despite being among the biggest stars in country music for decades, this is the first time Parton and Brooks have ever worked alongside each other, according to Jewel of Tennessee.
'I am thrilled to return to host the ACM Awards, this time with my friend Garth, Parton said in a statement when it was announced she was returning as host, as reported by Entertainment Tonight. 'While I've had the pleasure of spending time with him throughout the years, I can't believe we’ve never had the chance to work together.'
This is Parton's third time hosting, after she previously led the ACM ceremonies in 2000 and 2022.
